Detailed airflow dynamics and temperature data of axisymmetric and anisothermal jets developing in a room

HVAC systems are often used to reach thermal comfort in buildings. It is then necessary to understand the resulting indoor airflow and thermal conditions to optimize the systems. Therefore, this paper presents detailed measurements of axisymmetric and anisothermal jets developing near the ceiling of a thermally controlled room called MINIBAT. Air temperature, velocity and turbulent quantities over five vertical plans on the room were measured using adequate materials such as Pt100 probes and a hot-wire anemometer. These data are to be used for the analysis of indoor air mixing processes and CFD validation. The detailed experimental process and measurements as well as CFD results are exposed in [1].
