CFD Model of an Underfloor Air Cavity Created from Special Fittings and its Verification Using a Laboratory Model

Abstract:

Recently, there has been a tendency of increased complete reconstructions of historical buildings that have not been administered, nor used and have subsequently fallen into disrepair. The acting humidity can be effectively removed, using ventilated floors. The paradox is that these methods have been used for many centuries and until recently, only in laymans terms. The remaining problem involves drafts in air cavities in general. To assess the airflow in the air cavity, recently commonly used CFD simulations can be employed. In this article CFD simulation of underfloor air cavity created by special fittings is verified by means of laboratory experiment.
