Abstract:

In this article, the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology in the field of Heating Ventilation & Air Condition was introduced, and the research progress in optimizing the simulation of air-conditioned room was summarized. Some domestic and foreign studies on air conditioning operation and energy saving were illustrated about the effects of different installation locations, blow angles and air supply modes, which would provide a theoretical basis and scientific guidance for air-conditioning systems to optimize the design. Based on previous results, the development of further research on CFD in the simulation of air-conditioning in future was analyzed.
