An ongoing ASHRAE research project seeks to identify and clarify key issues governing literate application of computer-based analytical methods for prediction of room air motion. The engineering field is termed “computational fluid dynamics,” with the acronym “CFD,” which is maturing rapidly, paced by the incredible growth of scientific computing hardware capacity. As with any emerging technology, the production of reliable predictions requires a full understanding of intrinsic details. This paper addresses issues promoting knowledgeable use of CFD for prediction of room air fluid/thermal flow fields.
KEYWORDS: computer programs, rooms, air flow, fluid flow, calculating.
