Numerical Analysis and Optimal Design Investigation on Air Duct of Tent Air-Conditioner

Article Preview

Abstract:

According to the structural characteristics of tent air-conditioner, the inner flow mechanism and influence factors on aerodynamic characteristics of the air duct was investigated by using Fluent commercial CFD code. The disadvantages of original air duct were analyzed, several design options were proposed, internal flow characteristics was analyzed by numerical simulation, the optimal solution of air duct structure was fixed. The numerical results show that the air flow rate of optimal air duct run up to 125 m3/ h, increase by 18.9% compared to the original duct.
