Abstract:The mechanism of the indoor particulate matter's transportation and diffusion was discussed. Using the spatial and temporal scale analysis, the particulate matter's flux can be artificially separated into four parts:the advection and slippage in the slowly varying macro mean motion δ-scale, the turbulent diffusion in the rapidly varying micro turbulence motion η-scale and the Brown diffusion in the dramatically varying molecular motion λ-scale. Correspondingly, the flux equations in the ensemble average format and model computing format were concluded. Following the equations, the methods to increase the purification efficiency were lowering the indoor air speed and its turbulence intensity gradient. The flow fields was numerically simulated in a typical room with the low-speed steady substitution flow system installed and in a normal room with both air inlet and outlet on the roof. The particulate matter's number concentration was measured in two rooms with different air inlet and outlet positions. The results showed that the ways to improve the purification efficiency and to decrease the energy cost were:1) keeping a weak positive pressure; 2) setting the ceiling corner line air inlet and baseboard corner line air outlet layout; 3) lowering the air speed and turbulence gradient.
