11124 Computational Fluid Dynamics on Buildings

 
To build up simulation models within the CFD code Fluent for heat and fluid flow investigations in rooms and buildings, in building envelopes, in building services or in solar heating systems. It is the objective to make the participants familiar with the use of CFD in at least one of the following fields: Thermal conditions of buildings and comfort; Indoor air flow and ventilation; Wind around buildings and pedestrian comfort; Fire modeling and safety; Energy efficiency of building components and building services including solar heating systems; Optimal design of building envelops and building structures, etc.

The following two figures show examples of CFD applications.
