Parking (Car park) Ventilation by Jet Fan

Construction and operation of commercial and office complex are highly booming, according to the optimal use of existing spaces in major cities. Due to the compression of space in such complexes, parking’s are designed with the assumption to use the most space possible. With large numbers of cars in car-park and enclosed spaces, it will be certainly necessary to design a very powerful ventilation system.
Design and implementation of the ventilation system are necessary for enclosed parking and car park, because of vehicle density. During normal operation in a car park, vehicles produce pollutant gases like carbon monoxide and NOx may cause serious damage to people inside the parking lot. There is also another risk in car parks, which is the possibility of fire. Considering the enclosed area inside the parking’s, the Incidence of fire will produce deadly gases and a huge amount of smoke. According to this situation, parking ventilation systems must have the capability to control the smoke and deadly gases and provide the required time for people to escape from danger.

The old method for parking ventilation was using ventilation ducts in the roof. This method causes many limits in design and operation and in a fire situation, ventilation was not good enough.
New technology in this field is the application of jet fans for normal ventilation and smoke extraction in case of fire in parking. In fact, this technology represents the most innovative and cost-effective alternative to traditional ducted mechanical extraction systems. Carefully managing the project in all its development stages, which requires the fundamental use of fluid dynamics calculation programs - CFD - and also ensures that the system is working correctly. The jet Fan system provides either normal ventilation and can also be provided for smoke extract in case of fire in the parking lot.
After the final design, the performance of the jet fan can be evaluated using CFD in normal operation. Also by using PyroSim and FDS software the function of the installed jet fan could be tested during a simulated fire.
PyroSim is a graphical user interface for the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). PyroSim helps companies to create and manage the details of complex fire models.

PyroSim and FDS are both using as main software to simulate the fire reaction in different environments like buildings, parking lot, Car park, Subway, Tunnel, Cinema, Commercial office complex, and …
Using PyroSim we could define smoke detectors and sprinklers in a 3D model, in order to examine the current design in case of fire with both software.

CFD Simulation and Analysis Project

CFD - Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD Simulation and Analysis Project

In continuum mechanics, fluid mechanics to form one large branch. Fluid mechanics begins with the same principles of solid mechanics, but what distinguishes them from one another, is a fluid unlike solids are not able to withstand shear stress. Knowing this, it is planned equations for fluid motion analysis. These equations to respect both the British and the French mathematician called Navier-Stokes equations. CFD - Computational Fluid Dynamics solve the Navier-Stokes equation for the small size of the original model. In this way, the total desired volume is divided into very small volumes in operation meshing and after applying the boundary conditions, the equation is solved for all elements.

Computational Fluid Dynamics- CFD- in terms of the overall trend is similar to static and dynamic FEM analysis. Both methods are used to solve a much smaller element than the original model.

Today, with increasing computer processing speeds, CFD and FEM analyzes have found a special place in the design and failure analysis. Important things that can be calculated in Computational Fluid Dynamics:

Plot speed, temperature, and fluid pressure at any point of the model

Plots and counter the speed, temperature, and fluid pressure in the interior and exterior surfaces

Diagram of the fluid flow path

heat transfer charts and plots in the outer surfaces and boundary

Calculation of speed, temperature, and pressure at different levels and volumes

CFD and thermal simulation inside an shell and tube heat exchanger

Analysis and simulation of heat transfer and fluid that can be done with software such as Fluent, Ansys, and Flow works used in different parts of the industry, some of these include:

- Analysis and simulation of industrial ventilation and air conditioning - HVAC CFD

- Analysis and simulation of turbine and compressor

- Analysis and simulation of tunnel ventilation

- Analysis and simulation of the heat exchanger

- Analysis and simulation of chimneys

- Analysis and simulation of pumps
