Information

Overview

This is an ideal model of an air curtain. It accounts for additional heat losses through an air curtain in the entrance zone.

It accounts for an ideal temperature mixing of the ventilation air with the air curtain air.

Assumptions

Ideal mass balance: All air flow rate going outside through the entrance will be replace by ambient air flow going inside. This is mainly described by the air curtain efficiency. It mainly describes the share of total airflow of the air curtain staying inside.

Ideal temperature mixing: Ideal mixing of two air flows with different temperatures
