Air Conditioning Project description There are many types of air conditioning and ventilation systems used in buildings. The use of any ventilation system depends on the location of the building and the climatic zone of the desired location. Sunlight plays an important role in the temperature of the walls as well as the air temperature inside the building and this issue should be considered when designing the ventilation system. In this project, heat transfer inside a room and a balcony is investigated. The balcony has a glass roof and one glass wall. Due to the radiation of sunlight, both room and balcony become warmer and natural convection plays an important role in circulating the flow inside these spaces. The standard k-epsilon model is exploited for solving turbulent flow equations and P1 solar tracing model is used for simulating the solar rays entering the computational domain and the energy model is activated to
