Abstract

In modern buildings, especially the large-scale ones, the use of French windows becomes more and more popular. In these buildings, compare with the traditional heat sink, the floor radiant system has a wide range of applications because the temperature field of it is more uniform and it is much easier to arrangement. In this paper, by the way of numerical simulation, the ground surface temperature field and indoor air temperature field of three different types of floor radiant system are compared using the CFD software FLUENT. At last, the parallel type can be the best choice in the French windows buildings for the temperature field of it is high but not too high to make people feel Uncomfortable.
