Simulation of Temperature Distribution and Airflow Pattern on a Modified Arch Greenhouse Using Computational Fluid Dynamics. Supervised by HERRY SUHARDIYANTO, YULI SUHARNOTO and HARMANTO. In this research, the effect of wind speed on the natural ventilation of a modified arch greenhouse was analysed by computational fluid dynamics CFD, using the commercial software SolidWorks of 2010. The objectives of this research were to understand the natural ventilation on the greenhouse and develop a simulation of temperature distribution and the airflow pattern on the modified arch greenhouse. The experiment was carried out in a modified arch greenhouse equipped with both top and side ventilations. Climate data and greenhouse characteristics were used as inputs and boundary condition to develop a simulation model. Two- dimensional simulation in a steady state with the condition of no wind speed 0.0 ms, moderate wind speed 0.5 and 0.6 ms and high wind speed 1.8 ms were carried out. The wind speed through the insect-proof screen was simulated as a flow through porous media. The CFD model has succeded in predicting the temperature distribution and airflow pattern of the greenhouse. The result of the model showed that the greenhouse has a gradient temperature vertically and the natural ventilation works effectively. It is proved that a small error percentage of difference temperatures between the simulation result and the observed data less than 8 was obtained. The coefficient variation was also small 0.12, with the coefficient of uniformity of 89.76. Keywords: CFD, temperature distribution, modified arch greenhouse, ventilation, simulation
