| Abstract |
In high-rise residential buildings, indoor air quality is influenced by many pollutants that can be transmitted to other spaces of buildings. Especially, the smell of cooking within the housing unit can move to the core of building by stack effect and pollute the air. Stack effect in office building is well-known and improving the airtightness of the exterior wall is proposed as the effective solution. In residential buildings, thus, ventilation should be used to dilute the pollutant materials in the core. In this study, concentration of the pollutant materials from the house in core is calculated by CFD simulations and the characteristics of pressure distribution caused by stack effect in high-rise residential buildings were found through the use of CONTAMW simulations. Also, in order to determine the maximum ventilation efficiency, difference locations of air inlets and outlets were analyzed by CFD simulations. |
