Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 建築(工程)學系 === 85 === This research is focusing on three-dimension dwelling space of bedrooms in Taiwan residence, performing first through technologies of concentration-decay method and importing the concept of age of air, helping with the CFD for studying the affects of two air exchange indices-local mean age of air and the room mean age by varying the boundary conditions(ratio of openings, locations of openings and directions of bed) under the mode of natural ventilation. In this research, also creating chambers of dwellin■ Objectives:1. According to current existing domestic and foreign references concerning on indoor air environment, through the application of CFD numerical simulation, to study the distributions of CO2 concentration, temperature and velocity of domestic dwelling-bedroom spaces.2. To approach the influences of ventilation and air exchange in bedrooms by the ratio, locations of openings and directions of bed for looking forward to establishing relative basic data as the reference of bedroom*s designing.3. Through the concentration-decay experiments of bedroom*s experimental field, looking forward to establishing the initial index of bedroom*s age of air and ensuring the usage of concentration-decay experiments applied to bedroom space.4. To ensure the usage and correction of CFD numerical simulation applied to the simulation of natural ventilation of bedroom*s spaces.■ Methodology:1. Referring to previous researches, by comparative analysis of behavior models, space range and mold distance scale, a bedroom with space range of 3 meter length, 2.4 meter width and 3 meter height as a preliminary research object.2. On the basis of the space range of the chosen bedroom, build up the bedroom*s experimental laboratory of simulating natural ventilation for performing the 32-case concentration-decay experiments under different conditions of the ratio of openings, width of openings and directions of bed.3. According to the built CFD bedroom*s chamber, using different ratio of openings, width of openings (10, 20cm) and directions of bed as variables, to simulate the distribution of the field of velocity, temperature and CO2 concentration by applying the software PHOENICS of fluid mechanics and searching for the best direction of bed through studying the section velocity field of human body and openings.4. To prove the reliability of the CFD simulation applied to the natural ventilation by analyzing the results of CFD numerical simulation and concentration decay.■ Results:1. Applying the tracer gas(SF6)concentration decay method to measures of age of air in the dwelling bedroom is reliable and useful. In the quantitative indices of age of air, the local mean age of air under one hour of contaminant particles at any point in bedroom is better below 2230 seconds and the room mean age of air is better below 1414 seconds.2. By the experimental results, we can find the growing return-flow phenomenon of contaminants when the increasing of opening width, especially at the boundary of openings having the most variable age of air.3. The most marked location to lower local and room mean age of air is the one nearest the side of openings;the location opposite the openings for lowering the local mean age of air is most marked;the most marked location of openings to lower the local and room mean age of air is the one nearest the occupant*s head. In conclusions described above, to air exchange efficiency the best location and direction of bed is the one nearest the openings and occupant*s head when opening is 20cm width, we can get th4. The interior average temperature can be lowered about 0.2℃, the expansion of CO2 concentration can be increased to 150~180ppm when the width of openings is increased from 10 to 20cm.The two sides of the thermal plume produced by head in bedroom will appear two symmetric cycle-flows and a axis in the middle, the varieties of this axis location can determine the distribution of interior air environment. Especially when the head is nearest the side of openings, it can lower the temperature and CO2 concent5. Under the influences of buoyancy, the interior average temperature can increase 2℃, the CO2 concentration will block together under the ceiling to 880ppm and the CO2 concentration at the opening boundary will produce the phenomenon of return-flow in the dwelling bedrooms. From above, we can prove the interior buoyancy and strength of outdoor flow can determine the in-out behavior of the contaminants at the opening boundary.
