[0002] The CFD model is a computational fluid dynamics model. In underground buildings, the location of the heat source directly affects the temperature distribution and the flow field of thermal pressure ventilation. Thermal pressure ventilation in underground buildings often exhibits polymorphic phenomena, that is, under the same boundary conditions and geometric structures, due to the influence of factors such as initial conditions, heat source location and intensity, there will be a variety of stable ventilation states. The existence of this phenomenon increases the difficulty of ventilation system design and also provides the possibility of optimized design. By utilizing the simulation capabilities of the CFD model, the ventilation state under different heat source locations can be simulated to analyze the influence of different heat source locations inside underground buildings on thermal pressure ventilation, and further optimize the design and performance of the ventilation system.

[0003] In the existing technology, underground building thermal pressure ventilation has polymorphism or multiple solutions, that is, there are multiple stable flow states under the same conditions. It is difficult for the CFD model to accurately predict the final flow state during simulation.

[0063] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention are provided for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms.

The embodiments are selected and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thereby design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.

[0064] The first embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a heat source location positioning system based on a CFD model, comprising a simulation analysis platform, wherein the simulation analysis platform is communicatively connected with a data input and processing module, a geometric model building module, a parameter setting module, a CFD simulation execution module, a polymorphism analysis module, a flow state prediction module and a result display module, wherein the modules are connected by electrical signals;

[0065] The data input and processing module is used to collect and process input data, including building geometry, heat source characteristics, and boundary conditions to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the simulation and provide necessary basic data for subsequent modules. The input data of building geometry, heat source characteristics, and boundary conditions are collected based on architectural design drawings, field measurement data, and historical record data. The building geometry includes the size, shape, internal layout, and construction information of the building. The heat source characteristics include the location, intensity, type (such as equipment heat dissipation, personnel heat dissipation, etc.) of the heat source and its working time information. The boundary conditions include outdoor temperature, humidity, wind speed, and wind direction information. The collected data is preliminarily verified to check whether the data is complete and accurate and meets the simulation requirements. Check whether the building geometry data has logical Editing errors, whether the heat source characteristic data is within a reasonable range, and clean the data, handle the problematic data found during the verification process, and standardize the data to ensure the consistency of data format and unit, convert the collected input data into data format, and integrate data from different sources into a unified data set to ensure the logical relationship and time consistency between the data, convert the integrated data into a format acceptable to the CFD model, including generating geometry files for meshing and case files for simulation, and store the processed data in the database of the simulation analysis platform for subsequent modules to call and analyze, establish a data management system, classify, index and back up the stored data to ensure data security and accessibility;

[0066] The geometric model construction module constructs the geometric model of the underground building according to the input data, performs meshing, and performs mesh convergence analysis and time step independence verification, generates the calculation domain for CFD simulation, ensures the accuracy and calculation efficiency of CFD simulation, reduces truncation errors and calculation convergence problems, and uses the Geometry module (CFD pre-processing software) provided by ANSYS Fluent to create a preliminary geometric model of the underground building based on the collected building geometry input data (including the building's size, shape, internal layout and construction information). The preliminary geometric model of the underground building is refined to depict the complex structure and boundary conditions inside the building, including the main structure of the building, the location of local heat sources, and import and export channels, to ensure that all building features and internal structures are accurately reflected, and to verify whether the geometric model is consistent with the actual building and design drawings. Check whether the model has defects, such as overlapping surfaces, missing walls or other structural problems. After the geometric model is built, the geometric model is meshed to generate a grid system for CFD simulation. The quality of meshing directly affects the accuracy and computational efficiency of CFD simulation. Complex geometric structures in underground buildings and areas with drastic temperature changes require finer meshes to ensure that the detailed features of the flow field can be accurately captured. For key areas such as around heat sources, vents, and connecting channels, local encryption processing should be performed. In the process of meshing, pay attention to the shape, size, and direction of the mesh. In order to avoid large truncation errors in the calculation, use high-quality meshes (such as structured meshes, hexahedral meshes), and control the distortion and aspect ratio of the mesh. By gradually refining the mesh and comparing the simulation results under different mesh densities, the accuracy of the mesh can be judged. Whether the simulation results tend to be stable with the increase of grid density. If the changes of simulation results are within an acceptable range after the grid is encrypted to a certain extent, it is considered that the current grid density has reached convergence. Determine a grid density that can ensure simulation accuracy and has a reasonable calculation cost, set different time steps for simulation, and observe the changes of simulation results with time steps. If the changes of simulation results are very small after the time step is reduced to a certain extent, it is considered that the current time step setting is reasonable. Ensure that the selected time step can accurately capture the dynamic changes of physical phenomena and avoid numerical instability. After completing mesh division and verification , based on the grid division and boundary condition settings, generate the computational domain for CFD simulation, ensure that the computational domain completely covers the entire geometric model, including all the geometric structures and grid information of the underground building in the computational domain, and provide a basis for the subsequent boundary condition settings, initial condition settings, and simulation solution steps. Perform a pre-simulation before the formal simulation to check the physical rationality of the model and calculate the stability, adjust the simulation parameters to solve any convergence problems, and optimize the geometric model based on the results of the pre-simulation. The optimization includes adjusting the grid density and modifying the boundary conditions. The final geometric model and grid system are output to the CFD simulation execution module;

[0067] The parameter setting module is used to set the location, intensity, and distribution parameters of the heat source, simulate the heat pressure ventilation effect under different heat source configurations, analyze its impact on the flow state, and set the initial temperature, pressure conditions, and wall, inlet, and outlet boundary conditions of the simulation to ensure that the simulation process conforms to the actual situation and improve the reliability of the simulation results. According to the actual building situation, the exact location of the heat source is set and the simulation results are analyzed in ANSYS. In the Geometry module that comes with Fluent, mark the location of the heat source and mark the selected location as the heat source area. Based on the type of heat source, define the heat flux of the heat source in the material properties and set the distribution mode of the heat source, which are point heat source, line heat source, surface heat source, and the corresponding distribution density. Simulate the heat pressure ventilation effect under different heat source configurations, analyze the influence of heat source configuration on flow rate, flow direction and temperature distribution, set the initial temperature of the entire simulation area based on the temperature of the surrounding environment of the underground building, and set the initial pressure of the internal and external environments of the building at the beginning of the simulation. For natural ventilation simulation, set the static pressure. For open systems (such as underground buildings with inlet and outlet channels), set the static pressure of the inlet and outlet to the ambient pressure, and perform iterative calculations in the internal area. Set the wall of the underground building as a non-slip and adiabatic surface so that the wall does not participate in heat exchange and the fluid does not slide on the wall. For the inlet and outlet channels, set them as pressure inlets based on the simulation requirements. If natural ventilation is simulated, set the static pressure of the inlet to the ambient pressure. Set the boundary conditions when the air leaves the building, set the outlet channel to the pressure outlet, and set the static pressure to the ambient pressure.

The value range of ∈ is (0,1], which is a pre-set threshold used to control the strictness of convergence. v The square root of the sum of squares of the deviations of all monitoring residuals from their respective benchmark values ​​is calculated, and a comprehensive convergence judgment index is given. vWhen the value of is lower than the set threshold ∈, it is considered that the solver has reached the convergence standard. v If the value of does not decrease or increases after several consecutive iterations, it indicates that numerical instability has occurred in the solution process. During the iteration process, it is necessary to monitor the residual curve in real time to see whether it decreases with the increase in the number of iterations. If the residual curve shows an oscillating or increasing trend, it may be necessary to adjust the time step, relaxation factor, or recheck the physical model and boundary conditions.

For each flow state, extract the characteristic parameters of its velocity distribution, vortex structure, and turbulence intensity. For each identified flow state, analyze the change trend of the flow state over time, evaluate its stability, and determine whether it is a stable state. Analyze the conversion conditions between different flow states, determine the critical parameters of the heat source intensity and inlet flow velocity of the state conversion, search for areas that meet the polymorphism conditions in the simulation results, and identify the critical values ​​of the key parameters of velocity, pressure, and temperature that affect polymorphism. Perform sensitivity analysis on key parameters, evaluate the impact of parameter changes on the flow state, and verify whether the determined polymorphism conditions are accurate by comparing the simulation results under different conditions.

[0079] Where FE is the flow state evaluation coefficient, which is used to measure the overall change of flow state, T j is the temperature of the jth measurement point at a specific heat source location, T b is the reference temperature, is the initial temperature at the heat source position, ΔP j is the pressure change at the jth measurement point, P b is the base pressure, which is the initial pressure of the system, V j is the velocity of the jth measurement point at a specific heat source position, V b is the reference velocity, is the initial velocity at the heat source position, m is the total number of measurement points, and the value range of FE is [0, +∞), where FE = 0 means no flow state change, and the larger the FE value, the more drastic the flow state change, T j , ΔP j , and V jThe range of FE depends on the actual measured data. As the heat source position changes, the value of FE will change according to the flow state. The exponential function is very effective in measuring temperature changes and capturing the nonlinear characteristics of temperature changes. When the temperature changes slightly, the exponential function value is close to 1, and the change is not obvious. When the temperature changes significantly, the exponential function value increases significantly, indicating that the flow state changes significantly.
