The impact of numerical analysis on the efficiency of cooker hood ventilation systems

Abstract

Kitchen appliances today are also designed with the objective of reducing their environmental impact. Particularly, the design of cooker hood ventilation systems considers how to reduce their energy consumption and polluting emissions.
The improvement of the fluid-dynamic efficiency of the ventilation system is one of the main areas under examination.

This technical article describes how CFD analysis minimizes trial and error activities and costs and improves RFT – “right first time” – results.

CASE STUDY

Multiphase fluid dynamics simulation of electric expansion valves for refrigeration and air conditioning applications

Evaluating the ability of numerical methods to replace experimental testing to calculate the capacities of expansion valves

This article details a study that was undertaken by Castel, a producer of refrigeration and air conditioning components, to compare the results of an experimental method for testing expansion valves with a numerical method using Ansys.
