TY - JOUR A1 - Alsaad, Hayder A1 - Hartmann, Maria A1 - Völker, Conrad T1 - Hygrothermal simulation data of a living wall system for decentralized greywater treatment JF - Data in Brief N2 - This dataset presents the numerical analysis of the heat and moisture transport through a facade equipped with a living wall system designated for greywater treatment. While such greening systems provide many environmental benefits, they involve pumping large quantities of water onto the wall assembly, which can increase the risk of moisture in the wall as well as impaired energetic performance due to increased thermal conductivity with increased moisture content in the building materials. This dataset was acquired through numerical simulation using the coupling of two simulation tools, namely Envi-Met and Delphin. This coupling was used to include the complex role the plants play in shaping the near-wall environmental parameters in the hygrothermal simulations. Four different wall assemblies were investigated, each assembly was assessed twice: with and without the living wall. The presented data include the input and output parameters of the simulations, which were presented in the co-submitted article [1].

Die entsprechenden Energiegrößen werden durch Hystereseflächen der Spannungs-Dehnungslinien beschrieben. In der Literatur finden sich dabei unterschiedliche Ansätze, wofür diese Energie verwendet wird. Erste Untersuchungen zeigen, dass zumindest ein Teil dieser dissipierten Energie in thermische Energie umgewandelt wird. Mithilfe der in diesem Beitrag beschriebenen Methodik lassen sich diese Energiegrößen für jeden Lastwechsel eines Ermüdungsversuches schnell und zuverlässig bestimmen. Anschließend wurden mit dem implementierten Algorithmus die dissipierten Energien von insgesamt 27 zyklischen Versuchen ausgewertet. Analog zu der Dehnungsentwicklung und der Steifigkeitsdegradation weisen auch die Verläufe der dissipierten Energie über die Lastwechselzahl einen dreiphasigen Verlauf auf. Die Auswertung zeigt außerdem eine Korrelation zwischen der Bruchlastwechselzahl und der dissipierten Energie. Auch der Zusammenhang zwischen Probekörpererwärmung und dissipierter Energie konnte bestätigt werden.

This study aims to qualitatively investigate the personalized flows using two methods of visualization: (1) schlieren imaging using a large schlieren mirror and (2) thermography using an infrared camera. While the schlieren imaging was used to render the velocity and mass transport of the supplied flow, thermography was implemented to visualize the air temperature distribution induced by the PV. Both studies were conducted using a thermal manikin to simulate an occupant facing a PV outlet. As a reference, the flow supplied by an axial fan and a cased axial fan was visualized with the schlieren system as well and compared to the flow supplied by PV. Schlieren visualization results indicate that the steady, low-turbulence flow supplied by PV was able to penetrate the thermal convective boundary layer encasing the manikin's body, providing clean air for inhalation. Contrarily, the axial fan diffused the supplied air over a large target area with high turbulence intensity; it only disturbed the convective boundary layer rather than destroying it. The cased fan supplied a flow with a reduced target area which allowed supplying more air into the breathing zone compared to the fan. The results of thermography visualization showed that the supplied cool air from PV penetrated the corona-shaped thermal boundary layer. Furthermore, the supplied air cooled the surface temperature of the face, which indicates the large impact of PV on local thermal sensation and comfort.

In diesem Beitrag wird die Wirkung der PL auf die thermische Behaglichkeit der Nutzer unter sommerlichen Randbedingungen untersucht. Hierfür wurden zwei Ansätze zur Bewertung des Kühlungseffekts der PL untersucht: basierend auf (1) der äquivalenten Temperatur und (2) dem thermischen Empfinden. Grundlage der Auswertung sind in einer Klimakammer gemessene sowie numerisch simulierte Daten. Vor der Durchführung der Simulationen wurde das numerische Modell zunächst anhand der gemessenen Daten validiert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Ansatz basierend auf dem thermischen Empfinden zur Evaluierung des Kühlungseffekts der PL sinnvoller sein kann, da bei diesem die komplexen physiologischen Faktoren besser berücksichtigt werden. N2 - Personalized ventilation (PV) can improve thermal comfort and inhaled air quality by supplying air to each workstation separately. This study investigates the impact of PV on the thermal state of the users under summer boundary conditions. Two approaches to evaluating the cooling effect of PV were investigated, based on equivalent temperature and based on thermal sensation. Both approaches implemented measured and simulated values of the cooling effect of PV. Before conducting the simulations, the numerical model was first validated against measured data collected in a climate chamber equipped with a thermal manikin. Results indicated that the thermal sensation approach can be more suitable for evaluating the cooling effect of PV due to the complex physiological factors it considers.

JF - Indoor Air N2 - This study investigates the performance of two systems: personalized ventilation (PV) and ductless personalized ventilation (DPV). Even though the literature indicates a compelling performance of PV, it is not often used in practice due to its impracticality. Therefore, the present study assesses the possibility of replacing the inflexible PV with DPV in office rooms equipped with displacement ventilation (DV) in the summer season. Numerical simulations were utilized to evaluate the inhaled concentration of pollutants when PV and DPV are used. The systems were compared in a simulated office with two occupants: a susceptible occupant and a source occupant. Three types of pollution were simulated: exhaled infectious air, dermally emitted contamination, and room contamination from a passive source. Results indicated that PV improved the inhaled air quality regardless of the location of the pollution source; a higher PV supply flow rate positively impacted the inhaled air quality. Contrarily, the performance of DPV was highly sensitive to the source location and the personalized flow rate. A higher DPV flow rate tends to decrease the inhaled air quality due to increased mixing of pollutants in the room. Moreover, both systems achieved better results when the personalized system of the source occupant was switched off.

Its performance is assessed by the non‐intrusive measurement of the thermal plume of a heated manikin. The schlieren system produces excellent qualitative images of the manikin's thermal plume and also quantitative data, especially schlieren velocimetry of the plume's velocity field that is derived from the digital cross‐correlation analysis of a large time sequence of schlieren images. The quantitative results are compared with thermistor and hot‐wire anemometer data obtained at discrete points in the plume. Good agreement is obtained, once the differences between path‐averaged schlieren data and planar anemometry data are reconciled.

Um das dadurch eintretende Ermüdungsverhalten von Beton zu untersuchen, werden diese zyklischen Beanspruchungen in mechanischen Versuchen mit Prüfzylindern nachgestellt. Damit Versuche mit solch hohen Lastwechselzahlen in akzeptablen Zeitdauern durchgeführt werden können, wird die Belastungsfrequenz erhöht. Als Folge dieser erhöhten Belas-tungsfrequenz erwärmen sich allerdings die Betonprobekörper, was zu einem früheren, unrealistischen Versagenszeitpunkt führen kann, weshalb die Erwärmung begrenzt werden muss. Um die Wärmefreisetzung in der Probe zu untersuchen, wurden Versuche und Simulationen durchgeführt. Im Beitrag wird die analytische und messtechnische Analyse des Wärmeübergangs an erwärmten Betonzylindern vorgestellt. Resultierend daraus wird eine Möglichkeit zur Reduktion der Erwärmung an zyklisch beanspruchten Betonzylindern vorgestellt. N2 - Periodic load cycles, such as those that occur on bridges or wind turbines, are of great importance for dynamic long-term considerations of concrete. Within the life span of such structures, up to 1,000,000,000 load changes can be expected. To determine the fatigue strength, the resistance to periodic loads can be determined in a short time in laboratory tests by increasing the load frequency. As a result of this increased load frequency, however, the concrete test specimens heat up, which can lead to an earlier, unrealistic time of failure, which is why the heating must be limited. Therefore, tests and simulations were carried out to investigate the heat release in the sample. In this article, the analytical analysis and measurements of the heat release of heated concrete cylinders are presented. As a conclusion, a possibility of reducing the temperature of dynamically stressed concrete cylinders is introduced.

The measurements were carried out in a test stand, the simulations in the FEM program ANSYS. The simulations of the temperature development in the concrete cylinders with the used concrete recipe were validated using the temperature measurements. The investigations lead to the conclusion that energy is dissipated during cyclic test specimen loading and the accompanying test specimen elongation and that this is mainly responsible for the heating of the specimen.

The two systems were evaluated using a validated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of an office room occupied by two users. To investigate the impact of DPV and the fan on the inhaled air quality, two types of contamination sources were modelled in the domain: an active source and a passive source. Additionally, the influence of the compared systems on thermal comfort was assessed using the coupling of CFD with the comfort model developed by the University of California, Berkeley (UCB model). Results indicated that DPV performed generally better than the desk fan. It provided better thermal comfort and showed a superior performance in removing the exhaled contaminants. However, the desk fan performed better in removing the contaminants emitted from a passive source near the floor level. This indicates that the performance of DPV and desk fans depends highly on the location of the contamination source. Moreover, the simulations showed that both systems increased the spread of exhaled contamination when used by the source occupant.

To employ ATOM for indoor climate measurements, the impulse responses have been measured in the climate chamber lab of the Bauhaus-University Weimar and compared with the theoretical results of its image source model (ISM). A challenging task is distinguishing the reflections of interest in the reflectogram when the sound rays have similar travel-times. This paper presents a numerical method to address this problem by finding optimal positions of transmitter and receiver, since they have a direct impact on the distribution of travel times. These optimal positions have the minimum number of simultaneous arrival time within a threshold level. Moreover, for the tomographic reconstruction, when some of the voxels remain empty of sound-rays, it leads to inaccurate determination of the air temperature within those voxels. Based on the presented numerical method, the number of empty tomographic voxels are minimized to ensure the best sound-ray coverage of the room. Subsequently, a spatial temperature distribution is estimated by simultaneous iterative reconstruction technique (SIRT). The experimental set-up in the climate chamber verifies the simulation results.
