Abstract

The work described in this paper presents whole building simulations for an accurate model of the Viipuri library to demonstrate the feasibility of using CFD as a design and analysis tool. The preliminary results demonstrate that airflow and thermal effects can be predicted for any set of conditions, such as specifying which windows/doors are open, and the ambient conditions (wind, air temperature) exterior and interior to the building. Simulations of this kind can be very useful in helping architects determine how best to renovate/restore historical buildings so that the buildings function efficiently and so mechanical ventilation systems can be minimized in their use. Future work will focus on specific design criteria and environmental conditions.
