Indoor particle dispersion in a three-dimensional ventilated room is simulated by a Lagrangian discrete random walk (DRW) model and two Eulerian models: drift flux model and mixture model. The simulated results are compared with the published measured data to check the performance of the three models for indoor particle dispersion simulation. The deposition velocity of the particles is also computed and compared with published data. The turbulent airflow is modeled with the renormalization group (RNG) k−ε and a zero equation turbulence model. Comparison of the calculated air velocities with measurement shows that both the two turbulence models can simulate the airflow well for the presented case. For the Lagrangian DRW model, a post-process program is used to state the particle trajectories and transfer the results to particle concentration distribution. For Eulerian models, the effect of particle deposition towards wall surfaces is incorporated with a semi-empirical particle deposition model. The comparison shows that both the Lagrangian DRW model and drift flux model yield satisfactory predictions, while the predicted results by the mixture model are not satisfied. The deposition velocity obtained by the three models match the experimental data well.
