IAQ and CFD study on the ventilation system in a chassis dynamometer room

The chassis dynamometer room is one of many extensions in the automotive laboratory, UTHM, which is one of a few dynamometer rooms available in Malaysia. Consequently, it becomes highlighted facility to do tests and researches with respect to vehicle components such as the braking, cooling, and e...
