Ventilation of a machine hall

Simulation of the ventilation of a machine shop to create better ventilation and better working conditions through geometry changes.

Task / Calculation

The ventilation of a machine hall is to be simulated in order to create better (optimized) ventilation and thus better working conditions through targeted geometry changes.

Goal / Benefit

In the center of the hall, a machine was shown in simplified form. During its operation, dirt particles are generated which must be transported away from the machine by means of targeted ventilation in order to improve conditions at the workplace.

Two variants were simulated, in which the suction function of the ventilation was positioned once on the roof and once on the side walls of the machine hall.

The color of the particles represents the concentration of dirt.

Results

In a direct comparison, a significantly lower concentration of dirt is found in the machine hall if the extraction function of the ventilation is positioned on the side walls.
