[bldg-sim] Fume cupboards in labs

[Elmer Morrissey]

Hello all,

 

Does anyone have any experience in simulating the effects of fume cupboards
in laboratory facilities?

 

The building has several fume cupboards which extract air from the zone at
0.25m3/s with the cupboard door open and 0.1 with the cupboard door closed.
The areas are naturally ventilated however there are wall mounted motorised
dampers which replenish the lost air (when the fume cupboard is turned on).
The final bit of information is that a fume cupboard's fans are located on
the roof. These fans force the fumes away from the building at a rate of
10m/s.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Kind regards
