Title
Comparison of duct computer models that could provide input to the proposed thermal distribution standard method of test
Abstract
ASHRAE Research Project 852 aimed to provide a firmer rational basis for the selection of a public-domain software to simulate the complex behavior of ducted air distribution systems for space conditioning in residential and small commercial buildings. The project was accomplished by: identifying candidate duct computer models based on the project criteria; determining the accuracy of the pertinent numerical solutions and algorithms employed by each model; and investigating the remaining models by comparing results from a group of parametric simulations where the problems consisted of a series of interconnected pressure vessels interacting with a leaking forced-air distribution system and the outdoor atmospheric environment.
