Abstract :
In this thesis, based on computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique, the three-dimensional model of the refrigerated truck is set up on account of widely accepted K-e two-equation turbulent stream model. At the same time, the corresponding boundary conditions of this issue are also established. With applying commercial software FLUNET, the outcomes of temperature field is obtained. The reliability of the simulation was certificated with the experiments. The result shows that the temperature of compartment entrance is lowest and while behind the body is the highest. Besides, it also shows that proliferation of the heat flow in vertical direction is obvious quicker than in horizontal direction and the gradient of temperature change is quite obvious near the side of bodywork.
