i am doing hvac simulation system with cooling load of home appliances with fluent, how do i input the cooling load of each equipment?nThanksn

[DrAmine]

I understand it as you have a device which sucks air out of the room and serves as heat removal right?n

[DrAmine]

Or do you want to calculate the cooling load like in : https://theengineeringmindset.com/cooling-load-calculation-cold-room/ I guess it is then a matter of heat fluxes and temperature evaluation of humid air HVAC system.n

Scehmatic like this picturenI have appliances heat gain nTv 50wattnStove 900wattnHuman 50wattnWhere i can input the heat gain in ansys fluent?.n

I'd include the solid bodies (person) and use a source term, possible a boundary heat flux (stove) and radiator (TV - it's too thin to want to use a solid, I would for an older style CRT). I like the representation of the people: shows you've realised that trying to capture all the detail isn't necessary in this type of model. Don't forget to include a heat loss mechanism or it'll get very warm in there.

Thank you, i would try change the modeln

Hi,

When designing an HVAC system, it's important to accurately determine the cooling load of the building to ensure that the system is appropriately sized and will operate efficiently.

I suggested you to use EDS.Tech for cooling load. I also used this and it will be beneficial

Thanx
