Original Abstract

The aim of the paper is to show the possibilities of CFD modelling, and to evaluate ventilated air cavities (located mainly in the floor). Using CFD software FLUENT (ANSYS), a model of ventilated air cavity 10 x 6 x 0.5 m has been created where the calculated intensity of ventilation inside the cavity depends on wind velocity, air and ambient surface temperature, and other boundary conditions. The results achieved in 3D simulation are represented by coloured temperature and velocity fields, as well as schemes of floor structures.
