DISTRIBUSI SUHU UDARA DAN RH DI DALAM RUMAH TANAMAN TIPE STANDARD PEAK MENGGUNAKAN COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

Abstract

Microclimate analysis of a standard peak type greenhouse has been conducted using 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The objectives of this research were to predict air temperature and relative humidity distribution inside a standard peak greenhouse by using CFD software at zero and low winds peed conditions. Climate data and greenhouse characteristics were used as inputs and boundary condition for the simulation. Visual representations of the climate parameters distributions in the greenhouse were presented. The simulation produced realistic approximations of the dynamic behavior of greenhouse environments.
