| Title of the article | Numerical study of air convection flow in the Church of the Holy Blessed Prince Alexander Nevsky |
| Abstract. | Problem statement. Orthodox churches are an important part of the cultural life of our society, being a visual reflection of the traditions of our people, which is why it is so important to preserve them in their original condition. One of the key factors in preserving the interior decoration is the creation of optimal temperature and humidity parameters in the church, for a deeper understanding of which it is necessary to study the processes of development of speed and temperature fields that arise in the entire area of the Orthodox church. In this article, the goal was to study the processes of development of velocity and temperature fields arising in the entire area of the Orthodox church, within the framework of which the following tasks were solved: to study the selected model for grid convergence and to verify the results obtained during actual measurements. The article presents experimental data and theoretical results obtained as a result of numerical modeling of the flow caused by free convective heat exchange inside Orthodox churches. The results of the developed model are presented in the form of the “SAFHE” framework written according to the MVC scheme in the Python programming language. Results. The results of the calculation of the heating system with window sill aluminum radiators, carried out using the developed framework, are presented. Conclusions. The average absolute percentage error (MAPE) values obtained as a result of verification allow us to conclude that the presented method is quite accurate. |
