    International Journal of Automotive and Mechanical Engineering, 2025
    The rising demand for building energy and the time spent indoors are driving the need for a sustainable balance between building energy demand and occupant comfort. The detailed analysis of fluid flow, radiation heat transfer, heat load on a radiator, and the comfort of indoor occupants is essential for sustainable buildings. This study numerically evaluates the well-validated 3D empty-room model for energy demand in a cold-climate environment to support occupant comfort. Efforts have been made to optimise the factors affecting occupant comfort and the energy demand of the office room to maintain sustainable stability. A well-validated 3-dimensional model simulated airflow, heat transfer, and occupant comfort. The study optimises factors affecting comfort and energy use using multi-objective optimisation (MOO) techniques. Outlet vent location significantly impacts indoor comfort, energy, and fluid flow. Indoor environments can be optimised for both energy and comfort, especially in symmetrical indoor spaces. Floor-level vents improve air circulation but have little impact on energy use in cold climates. In symmetrical fluid domains, symmetrical outlet vent placement achieved the lowest objective function value (0.026), with a heat load of 412.27 W, PMV of 0.24, and PPD of 7.12, whereas floor-level outlet vents showed the highest objective function value (0.575), with PMV of 0.51 and PPD of 12.11, indicating reduced comfort. Overall, optimising ventilation strategies allows for prioritising occupant comfort and energy efficiency based on specific needs.
  • Response surface model-based multi-objective optimization of Box–Behnken building design for indoor comfort and energy

    Energy and Environment, 2025
    Rapid urbanization and the increasing energy demand of buildings necessitate modern building optimization techniques to maintain a suitable equilibrium between indoor comfort and building energy demand. This investigation aims to maintain an optimal balance between the building energy demand and indoor occupant comfort. Efforts have been made to optimize the independent variables influencing Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) response variables through a combination of advanced statistical and numerical techniques including the Box–Behnken design, response surface methodology (RSM), analysis of variance (ANOVA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The statistically optimized solution obtained using RSM determined the optimal parameters: inlet diffuser inclination (IDI) = −76.52, inlet air velocity = 0.1 m/s, and radiator temperature = 300 K. The statistical model demonstrated strong reliability, with a mean root mean square error (RMSE) of 4.73% compared to numerical results with an R ² of .998. The IDI appeared as the primary factor influencing building performance, with significant quadratic effects on operative temperature, indoor air velocity, and the predicted mean vote (PMV) index, highlighting precise modeling for indoor comfort assessment. The statistical methods applied in this study proved highly effective for numerical and experimental analyses. They hold significant potential for modeling indoor environments while addressing ventilation, air quality, thermal comfort, and energy efficiency.
  • CFD analysis of natural ventilation’s role in modulating transient metabolic rate and enhancing indoor comfort

    Energy Sources Part A Recovery Utilization and Environmental Effects, 2025
    This study explores the effect of transient metabolic rates on indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in a numerically modeled office room. Unlike traditional approaches that treat human metabolic rates as constant heat flux, this study considers it dynamic and analyzes its effect on IEQ. Metabolic rate increases indoor temperature non-linearly due to fluid flow dynamics; a 7.7% rise in metabolic rate causes a 0.62% temperature increase, while a 20% rise results in a significant 5.56% temperature increase. In naturally ventilated buildings occupant takes 8.5 to 10.9 minutes to stabilize the metabolic rate after high-level activity termination, but restoring IEQ can take significantly longer. Ineffective building designs require up to 71 minutes for IEQ stabilization, whereas building designs with square-shaped inlet vents independent of outlet profile reduce by 60.5% to 28 minutes. This study highlights the importance of ventilation strategies to mitigate occupant activity-driven impacts, enhancing thermal comfort and IEQ stability in indoor office spaces.

  • Numerical Analysis to Investigate the Effect of Inlet Diffuser Orientation of Naturally Ventilated Occupied Office on Turbulence Intensity Using CFD

    Aip Conference Proceedings, 2023
    The study presents the influence of Inlet Diffuser Orientation (IDO) on turbulent on an indoor environment quality (IEQ). The indoor thermal comfort in the cold climate room can be established employing a heat-generating radiation panel that can maintain the indoor comfort within an acceptable temperature range as per the cold climate conditions. Indoor occupants in cold weather conditions commonly feel uncomfortable in the presence of excessive eddies and circulations that result from turbulent flow intensity. Several case studies have been carried out to analyze the effect of IDO on indoor turbulent intensity. The alteration in IDO considerably affects the intensity of the indoor turbulence, the buoyancy force, the natural convection pattern, and, therefore indoor occupant comfort. The advancement in the IDO reduces the area mixing zone and increases the turbulent intensity near the inlet diffuser, radiator, walls, and furniture. To evade the perception of cold air draft due to increased turbulent intensity in the occupancy, it must be far enough left from the mixing zone. The study will be valuable in design and IEQ modeling of domestic buildings.
