Heat Distribution in a Room with Circular Air Flow

2021 Numerical Analysis Project

Introduction

The study of fluid flow and heat transfer inside a room will help us to visualize the distribution of heater and how the air flow affect the heat distribution. With direct numerical simulation of heat transfer, we would be able to simulate the situation directly using MATLAB. In this repository, the air flow inside the room will follow the velocity distribution of a tornado, and a square heater will be placed inside the room. During the experiment, instability may occur. In order to investigate the source of instability, several variable change will be observed to see the affect with the simulation. Moreover, the discussion was also made on the effect of AC Heater through the room to the simulation.
