Using convective heat transfer analysis to evaluate the cooling system of a data center. Different scenarios will be assessed.

This project is to test the heat transfer from a Fisker Electronik SK 42 to the air with a SOT 227 power mosfet attached that which has a heat dissipation of 4.95W.

Conjugate heat transfer is a behavioural analysis where convective (transfer between fluid) and conductive (transfer between solids) heat transfer takes place in a system. This combination of heat transfer has forced or natural convection where fluid is dominated by convection and solid is dominated by conduction. 
Objective of the Experiment is to
Carry out mesh Independent study
Stimulate CHT using two different processor materials
Carry out the analysis at different velocities 
To determine the hot spots and Heat transfer co-efficient at different velocities

This project aims at analyzing and understanding how thermal comfort can be achieved in an office space of 4 occupants.
The scenario takes place in summer conditions ( 42C outside temperature and  65 relative humidity). The thermal comfort metric used in this project is predicted mean vote (PMV) and the target range is -0.5/0.5.
The original scenario results, where the external walls have a low insulation value and the inlet temperature is 19.85 degrees Celsius,  show exceeding PMV values (2.8 on average at the humans' surfaces) that are beyond the recommended ASHRAE-55-2017 values.
To improve the PMV values and the energy consumed in order to cool the occupants, the insulation value for the walls and windows were changed to reflect the impact of adding an insulation layer. The results of the improved scenario show a significant saving in energy spending whereas the thermal comfort of the occupant isn't changed significantly. 
The next stage is to adjust and find an inlet temperature at a suitable level in order for the occupants to feel comfortable. The flowrate value wasn't modified because it would produce airspeed and therefore negatively impact the PMV values.
Working with a difference between the average room air temperature and the inlet temperature of 9 degrees Celsius, and aiming for a 22degres Celsius average room temperature as a starting point, an inlet of 14 degrees was used.
Simulation runs were performed at 14,13,12,11, and 10 deg Celsius until the measured PMV values for the occupants were all within the target range of (0.5/0.5). The  satisfactory condition scenario was determined to be with a 10 degrees Celsius inlet temperature.

1. Temperature distribution inside the light bulb

2. Behavior of flow due to convection

In this analysis, a CFD study is carried out of an entire HVAC system inside a large library room. The objective is to predict thermal comfort in a winter scenario in a library. So the external walls are assumed to be at 10 Celsius with a heat transfer coefficient towards the inside of the room. Warm air is supplied via the HVAC system and the resulting temperature and velocity distribution is studied.

In this project, steady state thermal analysis of a CFL light bulb is performed.

This project aims to obtain the airflow inside two design alternatives for an HVAC system of a theater room. Convective heat transfer simulation is used to obtain the flow pattern inside the room. Thermal comfort parameters such as PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) and PPD (Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied) are obtained along with the mean age of fluid.

In this project, airflow in a data center is evaluated by using convective heat transfer simulation based on the research article Data center - by Gao et al.
