Abstract |
This information note describes the method for measuring static pressure at the intake of local exhaust ventilation systems for the purpose of estimating the flow of circulating air. Contents: advantages, disadvantages and scope of application of the various types of flow measurements for local exhaust systems; experimental measurements of static pressure; calculation of the air flow based on the hood intake static pressure; evaluation of the exhaust system; practical example of interpretation of the results of static pressure measurements of a system. |
