Thermal effect from heat rejection devices in the air well

The emphasis of this research is to investigate stack effect in the air well and find a solution to avoid the extreme conditions mentioned above. Two kinds of air wells (one without slots on the sidewall and one with slots on the sidewall) were investigated. A computer program was developed to solve...
