Industrial Ventilation Design Guidebook, Volume 2: Engineering Design and Applications brings together researchers, engineers (both design and plants), and scientists to develop a fundamental scientific understanding of ventilation to help engineers implement state-of-the-art ventilation and contaminant control technology. Now in two volumes, this reference contains extensive revisions and updates as well as a unique section on best practices for the following industrial sectors: Automotive; Cement; Biomass Gasifiers; Advanced Manufacturing; Industrial 4.0); Non-ferrous Smelters; Lime Kilns; Pulp and Paper; Semiconductor Industry; Steelmaking; Mining. - Brings together global researchers and engineers to solve complex ventilation and contaminant control problems using state-of-the-art design equations - Includes an expanded section on modeling and its practical applications based on recent advances in research - Features a new chapter on best practices for specific industrial sectors

The fully revised and restructured two-volume 2nd edition of the Industrial Ventilation Design Guidebook develops a systematic approach to the engineering design of industrial ventilation systems and provides engineers guidance on how to implement this state-of-the-art ventilation technology on a global basis.Volume 1: Fundamentals features the latest research technology in the broad field of ventilation for contaminant control including extensive updates of the foundational chapters from the previous edition.With major contributions by experts from Asia, Europe and North America in the global industrial ventilation field, this new edition is a valuable reference for consulting engineers working in the design of air pollution and sustainability for their industrial clients (processing and manufacturing), as well as mechanical, process and plant engineers looking for design methodologies and advice on sensors and control algorithms for specific industrial operations so they can meet challenging targets in the low carbon economy. - Presents practical designs for different types of industrial systems including descriptions and new designs for ducted systems - Discusses the basic processes of air and containment movements such as jets, plumes, and boundary flows inside ventilated spaces - Introduces the new concept of target levels in the systematic design methodology such as assessing target levels for key parameters of industrial air technology and the hierarchy of different target levels - Provides future directions and opportunities in the industrial design field

The second edition of Ventilation Control of the Work Environment incorporates changes in the field of industrial hygiene since the first edition was published in 1982. Integrating feedback from students and professionals, the new edition includes problems sets for each chapter and updated information on the modeling of exhaust ventilation systems, and thus assures the continuation of the book's role as the primary industry textbook. This revised text includes a large amount of material on HVAC systems, and has been updated to reflect the changes in the Ventilation Manual published by ACGIH. It uses both English and metric units, and each chapter concludes with a problem set.

This guideline defines ventilation and then natural ventilation. It explores the design requirements for natural ventilation in the context of infection control, describing the basic principles of design, construction, operation and maintenance for an effective natural ventilation system to control infection in health-care settings.

Here, for the first time, is an authoritative technical reference book covering all aspects of state-of-the-art design of ventilation systems for contaminant control for a wide variety of manufacturing and processing industries. The author has played a key role in the development of the subject and this book is based on his extensive consulting experience in the practical engineering design of contaminant control systems world-wide, as well as his personal research work. The material is organized specifically for ease of understanding and contains all the technical information needed to develop cost-effective solutions for any type of contaminant in the workplace environment. A unique feature is the development of recommended subject classifications for the ventilation field. For each type of ventilation system, the fundamental design equations are developed from theoretical principles, and numerous examples are given of the practical application of these design equations to solving industrial ventilation problems.

This book examines the computations of gas-borne dust flows in local exhaust ventilation systems and provides practical recommendations for the energy-efficient containment of dust emissions. It discusses basic approaches to operational energy savings for local exhaust ventilation systems, including shaping intake openings of open local exhaust devices after determining boundaries of vortex areas, increasing the working distance of suction openings, inhibiting carryover of dust into aspiration network by promoting rotational aerodynamic fields, and more. Color photos throughout illustrate dust behavior, flow lines, and patterns.

The practical reference book and guide to fans, ventilation and ancillary equipment with a comprehensive buyers' guide to worldwide manufacturers and suppliers. Bill Cory, well-known throughout the fans and ventilation industry, has produced a comprehensive, practical reference with a broad scope: types of fans, how and why they work, ductwork, performance standards, testing, stressing, shafts and bearings. With advances in technology, manufacturers have had to continually improve the performance and efficiency of fans and ventilation systems; as a result, improvements that once seemed impossible have been achieved. Systems now range in all sizes, shapes, and weight, to match the ever increasing applications. An important reference in the wake of continuing harmonisation of standards throughout the European Union and the progression of National and International standards. The Handbook of Fans and Ventilation is a welcome aid to both mechanical and electrical engineers. This book will help you to... •Understand how and why fans work •Choose the appropriate fan for the right job, helping to save time and money •Learn installation, operational and maintenance techniques to keep your fans in perfect working order •Discover special fans for your unique requirements •Source the most appropriate equipment manufacturers for your individual needs - Helps you select, install, operate and maintain the appropriate fan for your application, to help you save time and money - Use as a reference tool, course-book, supplier guide or as a fan/ventilation selection system - Contains a guide to manufacturers and suppliers of ventilation systems, organised according to their different styles and basic principles of operation
