This blog will give you an overview of the Autonomous HVAC CFD app’s Technology Preview and its features, how to create your own project and run CFD simulations in the app.
simulationHub is here with the future of CFD simulations for the HVAC industry. We are proud to launch the technology preview of our upcoming app Autonomous HVAC CFD. Here you can try your hand at simulating 210 different CFD simulations and analyzing their thermal comfort conditions. Read more to know about the technology preview and its benefits for the HVAC industry.
Occupant thermal comfort is of prime importance when we evaluate the effectiveness of any building HVAC system. Achieving a desired thermal comfort is challenging as it depends on many factors including ducting layout, supply, and returns arrangement, occupant density, occupant activity, and external environmental conditions. There is not a single perfect tool to quickly and easily estimate the comfort conditions for different design configurations and scenarios. simulationHub is working on a state-of-the-art thermal comfort app which will change the way HVAC systems are designed and evaluated. This blog gives sneak peek into what is this app and how this is going to be a great tool for HVAC designers, consulting firms and the end users.
Thermal comfort is an important aspect in representing human satisfaction, which is defined as the condition of mind which expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment by ASHRAE. It means that a person feels neither too cold nor too warm. The idea of this blog is to provide a detailed discussion of various thermal comfort indices and the role of CFD in evaluating thermal comfort in occupied spaces.
