hypothermia generates potentially severe complications in operating or recovery room. forced air warmer is effective to maintain body temperature. extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (elf-emf) is harmful to human body and mainly produced by electronic equipment including convective air warming system. we investigated elf-emf from convective air warming device on various temperature se...

The effect of the volume flow rate of the heat transfer fluid (air) on the thermal parameters of the solar air collector with a single air pass without using fins under the absorbing plate have been investigated experimentally and theoretically. We use a new design of solar air collector which aims to optimize these parameters in the region cited above. Our solar air collector was realized at t...

The paper presents a simplified mathematical model to describe the transient heat transfer of a radiant floor heating system. A purpose-built test room has been realized to investigate the actual thermal response of a concrete radiant floor in unsteady-state conditions. Beyond the temperature sensors needed for the standard thermal analysis of the heat transfer inside the chamber, the floor tem...

Propane combustion in a trapped vortex combustor (TVC) is characterized via large eddy simulation coupled with filtered mass density function. A computational algorithm based on high order finite difference (FD) schemes, is employed to solve the Eulerian filtered compressible Navier-Stokes equations. In contrast, a Lagrangian Monte-Carlo solver based on the filtered mass density function is inv...

Libraries consist of large indoor open spaces with comfortable environments for studying activities. Hence, library occupants are exposed to microclimatic conditions in the environment library. This problem can lead a series thermal condition symptoms (cold or hot) and general discomfort. Therefore, this study aimed develop computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model validated field measurement dat...

Climate change has a potential impact on the number of hot and torrid days in summer period. Due to occupants’ comfort needs, because high heat loads during period, several European countries, energy used for air conditioning buildings increased. With multiple environmental monitoring systems (Testo Saveris) two similar offices, having west east orientation glazing, 1920 data (internal air, mea...

air conditioning is widely applied for the improvement of standard of living in human life. this present investigation focused on the prediction of indoor air quality characteristics of air conditioned car using fuzzy logic algorithm. the conditioned space was selected and the experiments were planned as per design of experiments to study the effect of human load, fresh air supply and air veloc...
