Abstract :
Five parts including environment air supply duct, air supply structure, display cabinet, air return structure and environment air return duct were integrated and the modified two fluid model was employed to simulate the air flow and heat transfer in a vertical display cabinet with environment air supply. The temperature field characteristics were analyzed and the predicted temperatures were compared with measurements by experiments. The Comparisons show that the predicted temperatures are agreement with the measurements, which means the integrated CFD simulation is successful.
