Indoor air quality test and air distribution CFD simulation in hospital consulting room.

Reasonable air distribution is crucial to improve the air quality in hospital consulting room. Different air distribution schemes have certain effects on indoor temperature field, air flow field and particle concentration field. Based on a large general hospital project, this paper makes a subjective questionnaire survey and field test on indoor air quality of hospital buildings. Field test parameters include temperature, indoor air velocity, humidity, carbon dioxide and total volatile organic compound concentration. The results of the questionnaire survey show that a small number of people are not satisfied with the air quality in the hospital consulting room, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in some areas is high, which affects human health. The geometric model is established according to the test data, and the numerical simulation is carried out by CFD software to study the effects of three different air distribution. The research results show that the air distribution form of up-supply and side-return is more suitable for hospital consulting room and the air quality is better. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
