ABSTRACT

This study comparatively analyzes air-circulation characteristics according to inlet–outlet configurationsin a closed cultivation chamber resembling a space-analog environment using CFD. A chamber geometry incorporating a cultivation space and equipment modules was constructed, and three ventilation scenarios were defined. For each scenario, airflow paths and potential stagnation regions were evaluated using velocity fields and streamlines, and quantitative comparisons were performed using domain-averaged velocity, a velocity uniformity metric, and the inlet–outlet pressure difference (Δp). The results indicate that Scenario C exhibits the smallest deviation among velocity components and clearer multi-directional circulation loops, resulting in superior overall air-mixing characteristics. In contrast, Scenarios A and B show relatively larger airflow reachability non-uniformity in certain regions.
