| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT The feasibility of using highly cold air in air conditioning systems in Riyadh City was investigated. Computational fluid dynamics technique was used to study air distributions inside rooms for moderate and highly cold air supply systems. The current investigation was conducted under the real conditions represent air conditioning loads and weather in Riyadh city in the Kingdome of Saudi Arabia. Comparisons between comfort levels under different supply air temperature from 5 oC (highly cold) to 15 oC (classical system) were conducted. The comparison indicated that using highly cold air system can improve air quality and comfort conditions inside air-conditioned spaces in Riyadh City. | ||
