The aerodynamic effects of human movement can significantly influence the airflow motion and contaminants transmission in enclosed environments such as in aircraft cabins, cinema and conference room, and so it is necessary and important to study the characteristics of these aerodynamic effects. This work focuses on the aerodynamic characteristics of human movement behaviours including limbs pendulum and body motion. A thermal manikin is used in the corresponding environments to simulate these behaviours. The step frequencies of 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 double steps per minute for limbs pendulum and the moving speeds of 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 m/s for body motion are investigated in the experiments. In each case, the velocity distribution around the human body is measured by using hot-wire anemometers. The experimental results show that the characteristics of the velocity distribution induced …
