Abstract

The environment quality of ship cabins will directly affect the crew work efficient and health. In order to analyze the effect of different air-supply types on ship's cabin environment, one rest room of a ship was selected as the research object. Based on the computational fluid dynamics and numerical heat transfer theory, numerical simulation was carried out for different air-supply types with the software AIRPAK. Through the comparative analysis of temperature field, PMV(Predicted Mean Vote) field, PPD(Percentage of Predicted Dissatisfaction) field, airflow distribution of up-supply and down-return air-conditioning system is more even and this system can provide better thermal comfort and meet the comfort requirements of the crew in the cabin.
