To realize an economical heat exchanger system, a complex interaction of many factors must be analysed. To solve the different aspects of the problem, a methodtcal approach is necessary. Firstly a compact heat exchanger for use m modern livestock buildings is selected. Then a calculation method is presented to predict the effectiveness of the selected system It is shown how this calculaUon can be used to define an economic cntenon by which a well dimensioned and adapted heat exchanger system can be developed

On the basis of a p r & s m q introduced in 1983, several improvements have been made to develop a low-cost ai-rate sensor with an acceptable accuracy of 60 mjlh in a range fim 200 to 5000 m3/h for pressure d$ ferences fiom 0 to 120 Pa. This sensor can be integrated in the climate control equipment of livestock buildings to improve process control.

Research paper thumbnail of Development of new control techniques for the ventilation and heating of livestock buildings

Journal of Agricultural Engineering Research, 1986

From statistical analysis offield data, normal mechanical ventilating systems using exhaust fans ... more From statistical analysis offield data, normal mechanical ventilating systems using exhaust fans were found to give no better mean production results than natural open-ridge systems. To explain this, components of the mechanical ventilating system, namely the fan and the controller, were analysed in a laboratory test installation. The equipment tested revealed important shortcomings that explain why normal mechanical ventilating systems do not perform adequately in the field. By use of a steady-state analysis , the effects of the air flow rate on indoor temperature and on energy losses in a livestock building were analysed. A new controller has been developed, in an attempt to achieve improved control of air flow and hence more effective environmental control in livestock buildings.
