Abstract
The article is dedicated to the analysis of particle residence time in ventilation systems. Residence time is understood as the duration of an individual particle or flow element's presence within the volume of a device or system from the moment of entry to the moment of exit. The study of this parameter is important for assessing the efficiency of air exchange, the uniformity of fresh air distribution, and the microclimate quality in a room.
Depending on the type of input impact, the following were obtained: a differential distribution function characterizing the proportion of particles whose residence time is close to a given value; and an integral residence time distribution function of a particle in the flow (C(t)).
It is noted that the average residence time is a key calculation parameter, and for idealized flow models, it is determined as the ratio of the device volume to the volumetric flow rate. The flow structure in a ventilated room directly determines the distribution of particle residence time in the flow.
The analysis of residence time characteristics presented in the article allows for the evaluation of the efficiency of ventilation and air mixing systems.
Thus, the study of particle residence time is a powerful tool for diagnosing, designing, and optimizing ventilation systems aimed at creating a healthy and comfortable microclimate in rooms.
The obtained results can be useful for optimizing ventilation systems to enhance the efficiency of air mass mixing and improve indoor air quality. This can also have practical applications in ensuring safety and sanitation in buildings and premises with high demands on ventilation systems.
The subject of the research is the analysis of particle residence time in ventilation systems, which is important for assessing the efficiency of air exchange, the uniformity of fresh air distribution, and the microclimate quality in a room.
Materials and Methods: The study of particle residence time in ventilation systems involves the use of modeling, experimental, and data analysis methods to determine the relationships between various parameters.
Results: Based on the conducted research, an analysis of the average particle residence time in the flow was performed, and the distribution of particle residence time in the flow was determined.
The analysis of average particle residence time in the flow allows for the assessment of overall mixing efficiency. A long average residence time may indicate the need for ventilation system optimization.
The distribution of particle residence time in the flow is characterized by dispersion. Low dispersion indicates uniform mixing, while high dispersion may suggest uneven particle distribution.
The identification of outliers and anomalies in particle residence time data allows for the detection of potential malfunctions in the ventilation system that require additional attention and adjustment.
The statistical characteristics of particle residence time in the flow of ventilation and mixing systems are important for understanding and optimizing hydrodynamic processes within these systems.
Conclusions: The analysis of average particle residence time in the flow allows for the assessment of overall mixing efficiency. The distribution of particle residence time in the flow can be characterized by dispersion. The identification of outliers and anomalies in particle residence time data allows for the detection of potential malfunctions in the ventilation system. Investigating the relationship between particle residence time and various ventilation system operating parameters can provide additional opportunities for optimizing ventilation processes.
