A001 Airflow a/c spaces

Experimental studies on the airflow characteristics of air-conditioned spaces

Brief:

The indoor airflow characteristics in three air-conditioned compartments including an environmental chamber, a small control room, and a large badminton court at a foreign university were measured and the associated thermal comfort was evaluated with the air diffusion performance index (ADPI) and the percentage dissatisfied (PD). Results show that the air diffusion performance would not be improved by only changing the supply flow rates in the cases but the airflow pattern is proposed to be improved.
