Influence of Return-Air Outlet Position on Artifacts' Preservation Environment with Displacement Ventilation System
To solve the problems of high energy consumption and large temperature gradient in the local environment control of relics preservation in heritage museum with displacement ventilation(DV)system
an improved DV system
which can reduce the air entrainment from the unconditioned area by laying return-air inlet downwards at the preservation area
was developed. Based on current experimental museum exhibition hall
an experimental setup of the proposed DV system was built. Thus
experiments on natural ventilation system and three DV systems with the heights of return air of 0.4
0.9 and 1.6 m were performed
and th
e distributions of temperature and humidity as well as the energy consumption of the system in all test cases were compared and analyzed. The experimental results showed that the DV system could effectively improve the stability of the preservation environment. The fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity were decreased by 50% and 88%
respectively
at a height of 0.2 m from the pit bottom
compared with that of natural ventilation system. Consequently
two thermal stratifications
i.e.
0.2-0.7 m and 1.5-1.7 m were formed in the vertical direction of the preservation area. With the lowering of the height of return air
the DV system enhanced the control over the environmental parameters in the preservation area
and the height of thermal stratification and effective control height were low. Since the downward layout of return-air inlet was set
the load of air-conditioning was decreased by 57.2% averagely compared with the original design. In addition
when the height of return-air inlet decreased from 1.6 m to 0.4 m
the load of air-conditioning per unit area was further decreased by 22.7 W/m

. These results could be used as reference for the design of displacement ventilation control systems.
