Analysis on the Ventilation Rate of Express Bus according to the Geometry of Vent

고속버스의 환기구 형태에 따른 환기량 분석

This paper deals with the free cooling system of express bus using natural energy source in order to improve the room air quality and save cooling energy. In an express bus, there are may passengers in unit area, requiring the improvement of air quality and giving higher energy saving efficiency. Particularly, the express buses running fast make it easy to take in outdoor air at a flow rate controllable with a damper mechanism. This paper proposes the analysis on the air flow achieved by a damper controlled vertically and horizontally in order not to deteriorate the ride comfort of the passengers.
