Description
ABSTRACT:
As a means of maintaining the ideal comfort temperature in Malaysia, which is between 25.5 °C and 28 °C, air conditioners have grown to be commonplace in almost all buildings. During lectures, Kuching Polytechnic lecture halls frequently use ceiling fans and natural ventilation to provide a comfortable environment. The research process started with a review of the literature and continued with data gathering from the experiment lecture hall, simulation using computational fluid dynamics software, and evaluation of a suggested installation arrangement to optimize air and heat distribution within the lecture hall. The CFD simulation model for the actual conditions of the lecture hall was verified by comparing the data from the experiment with the simulation findings. The area model diagonal air conditioner installation arrangement and center air conditioner installation arrangement have been verified within a tolerance range of 10% using the verification model and CFD simulation. The air temperature and velocity profiles, in particular, were found to be outside of the MS 1525 (2014) allowable limits overall, as shown by the CFD simulation. It is possible to draw the conclusion that, in order to optimize both thermal and air distribution across a lecture room with a ceiling fan, the location of the air conditioner is crucial based on the results of three (3) CFD simulation models.
