Numerical similation applied to the air temperature control and improvement at the TLS

This paper presents the numerical simulation studies applied on the air temperature control and improvement at the Taiwan Light Source (TLS). To improve air temperature control and study the flow circulation in air conditioned areas, we had applied the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) scheme to the experimental hall, the storage ring tunnel, a technical zone and the booster area, respectively. We review those studies by examining the governing equations, the model construction, mesh generation, boundary conditions, convergence criterion and validation of simulations.
