AIRFLOW AND TEMPERATURE FIELD CALCULATIONS FOR WINTER SPORTS FACILITIES
In the design of indoor winter sports facilitiesComputational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simula-tionsare used to calculate the velocity and tem-peraturedistribution throughout the space, in or-derto complement traditional mechanical designand increase confidence into the proposed design.This process is described here using the exampleof a competitive curling rink. In the introduc-tionthe capabilities and limitations of CFD sim-ulationsare brie y lined out. The physics of themodel of the curling venue are described. Simu-lationresults are presented for the velocity distri-butionand the temperature distribution for twodifferent heat gain scenarios. The first scenarioincludes only heat gain from lights and representsthe maximum potential to pre-cool the space be-foremajor events. The second scenario includesheat gains from lighting and people at maximumoccupancy. The simulation results confirm that the design intent of uniformely low air speeds andtemperatures can be expected to be achieved.
