2.2.3. Boundary Condition Setting
- Emission source: the kitchen stove surface is defined as the source of PM2.5 emission and heat source for the velocity-inlet boundary, and the velocity is set to 0.6 m/s [25]. The average temperature of the stove is taken as 150 °C for calculation in combination with relevant studies.
- Import and export: the doors and windows are all fully open, and the airflow flows into the room from outdoors through the doors and windows.
- Exhaust vent: use low-speed gear to exhaust, set exhaust negative pressure to 150 Pa [27].
- Wall surface: indoor and outdoor walls, operating tables, ground, etc., are adiabatic boundaries set as constant temperature wall boundaries.
2.2.4. Boundary Condition Setting
2.2.5. Model Validation and Correction
2.3. Inner-Courtyard Form Model
- Protruding parts of the building unrelated to the research object were simplified to the most basic form on the basis of not affecting the simulation results.
- For rooms not related to the kitchen, such as bedrooms, living rooms and bathrooms, their internal walls, windows and other layout structures were ignored and they were simplified into the entity spaces to reduce the influence of other factors on the research object.
- The kitchen size and form were kept the same. The north corridors were uniformly set to 1.5 m wide and the length depended on the type of flats. The area of the traffic space and the side household were set at the same size.
- In order to ensure the natural flow of wind field in the kitchen and the household during the simulation, ventilation windows were set on the south wall as the outlet of pressure flow, and only the kitchen windows were set on the north side. The doors and windows were all fully open by default to realize the natural wind flow.
- The side flats were simplified as non-ventilated entity spaces to reduce interference.
