Effect of groove at car park extraction system
Efficient smoke removal system from a car park is very important to maintain visibility and other safety factors for drivers. In this study, the effect of grooves and transverse grooves on car park extraction system was investigated through numerical simulations. Simulations of car park extraction s...
