RESEARCH OF DIFFERENT AIR DISTRIBUTION SCHEMES IN ICE RINK ARENA
Numerical simulation methods allow to analyze the three-dimensional velocity, temperature, humidity fields in the investigated room. In present paper three different air distribution schemes of ice arena are analyzed. The main difference in discussed schemes is the way of organizing air supply towards the ice field zone. Simulation results showed that, while maintaining the balance of moisture and temperature, the air parameters near the ice field are very similar for schemes with and without nozzle air supply towards ice zone.
