Abstract
In this paper, one certain space under bridge which was used as a storehouse has been simulated numerically. The flow was considered turbulent and buoyant. A simple geometry was adopted, consisting of a room with a door that plays the role of inlet and another of outlet for the air. Four bundles of wood burners which considered as a volumetric heat source were placed evenly in the space. The problem was simulated by using the RNG K-ε turbulence model, modified to account for buoyancy effects. Several useful results were obtained.
