The analysis of selected parameters of thermal comfort in the classrooms using CFD technique

The microclimate parameters, such as temperature and air velocity, have a large influence on the sensations, as well as on the effectiveness of the student learning. Therefore, the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are designed to provide such parameters of the internal environment, which will guarantee thermal comfort for people staying in classrooms. The analysis of selected air parameters was realized based on the two rooms located in the building of Faculty of Civil Engineering, Architecture and Environmental Engineering at Lodz University of Technology. For this purpose, the DesignBuilder program was used to obtain the temperature and air velocity distributions in the students presence zone.
