Abstract
Analysis of the operation of hydraulic towel warmers using CFD - simulation
Incoming article date: 17.03.2023CFD modeling seems to be one of the most accessible and accurate ways to calculate the characteristics of flow processes using computational and physical-mathematical methods in solving practical problems today. In particular, it is used to determine the parameters of the indoor microclimate. This article describes the process of modeling the operation of hydraulic heated towel rails in the bathroom of a residential building and selects the optimal configuration based on the data obtained as a result of the calculation in the STAR CCM + software package.
