Modelowanie CFD sprzężonego przenoszenia ciepła w lodówkach  
[CFD modelling of conjugated heat transfer in refrigerators]

The upcoming changes in global energy label for domestic refrigerators require a deep 
dive on heat transfer phenomena inside both fridge and freezer compartments. CFD 
(Computational Fluid Dynamics) can be used as a tool in order to support the design 
process, compare the airflow patterns for different concepts, identify stagnation zones, 
estimate temperature stratification, which furthermore can significantly reduce the cost 
of investments and save laboratory resources. During the presentation I will describe the 
general concept of CFD modelling (i.e., designing a simulation model to solve an 
engineering problem involving fluid flows) and discuss sample projects.
