Today air conditioning systems have been considered by all people as one of welfarerequirements in buildings and closed environments. Since a considerable part of energy lossoccurs in ordinary modern systems, new strategies and solutions are developed in the field inorder to save amount of energy consumption and observe environmental considerations. Fuzzycontrol is one of these methods which pr...

This paper modeled heating air of a room through examining free convection in a 3D chamber. The chamber had cold and hot sources with Tc and Th temperatures, respectively. Its other walls were adiabatic. This study aimed at predicting effect of temperature difference, displacement of hot and cold sources and their aspect ratio on flow field, temperature and heat transfer rate. To conduct the st...

distribution of water vapor in the atmosphere of the room poultry houses is usually an effective and economical solution to reduce heat stress of the chickens. experimental studies were conducted in a small saloon located in the farm machinery department of shiraz university. the rotary cup fogging system consisted of a cup which was derived by dc motor. rotational speed of the cup caused the w...

The objective of this study is to design and briefly investigate the cooling performances of an air conditioning system for a special purpose vehicle under various experimental conditions. An air conditioning system with two parallel refrigeration cycles consisting of two compressors and two condensers for satisfying the required cooling performance of the special purpose vehicle was tested und...

This paper proposes the analysis of real monitored data for evaluating relationship between occupants’ comfort conditions and energy balance inside an existing, nearly zero-energy building under different operational strategies heating, ventilation, air-conditioning system. During wintertime, adaptive approach is applied choosing temperature setpoint when air-to-air heat pump provides both heat...

In the considered foundry emits offgas containing VOCs (especially ethanol). In order to reduce the VOC content, a compost based biofilter has been installed. In this approach, the polluted air stream enters a pre-conditioning chamber where temperature and humidity is adjusted for asphalt factories. Biofilteration has already been well established as an air pollutant control alternative. There ...
