Kiełbasa, Recommendations of CNBOP-PIB W-0003:2016 – smoke venting systems for stairways, Scientific and Research Centre for Fire Protection-national Research Institute Schälin, Computational Fluid Dynamics in Ventilation Design, REHVA (Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Associations) If the measurements we taken just a few centimeters further from the wall, the effect would have not been recognized. However, the value of the full-scale picture given by CFD becomes self-evident. This effect subtle could have been detected by careful measurements instead of HVAC simulations. It occurred due to a change of the air temperature because of extra heat conduction through the walls. Interestingly enough, we noticed a sharp relative humidity gradient near to the walls on which the paintings would hang. The simulations was carried out using standard CFD software appended with an exact model for the transport of water vapor.
They turned to QuickerSim for help and we calculated the humidity and temperature distribution profiles in the entire hall. The latter turned out faster and more cost-effective.
The hosts of the exhibition could test the detailed flow conditions in the room either by adjusting the blowers and direct measurements or resort to the CFD simulations. Some of the workpieces had very restrictive demands for the temperature and the humidity of air. The newly built Museum of Modern Art (Muzeum Sztuki Nowowczesnej, MSN) in Warsaw was preparing an exhibition. This is already outlined in the European, and Polish recommendations. Note that some ascpects of HVAC simulations, for instance for smoke spreading may be used as a substitute for costly tests in real live.
There is limited availability of the Foundation HVAC textbooks. Simulating Safe HVAC Systems with Ansys Fluent. Textbooks are available in both hardcopy and as an ebook through our partnership with Cengage. Our online HVAC Apprentice courses are still using the Foundation’s four-year HVACR textbook series.
If you need a crosswalk between the Foundation’s 4-year series of HVAC apprentice textbooks and Refrigeration and AC Technology 9th edition, please email. The Foundation is transitioning to a new recommended HVAC Apprentice Textbook, Refrigeration and AC Technology, for brick-and-mortar Apprentice schools. The textbook series combines theory with practical examples, giving reader the ability to learn why as well as how things work. The Foundation’s four-year plumbing textbook series is in its 2nd edition and offers detailed illustrations, and provides accurate visualizations of structures, technologies, and concepts seen in the field.
