Abstract

Measurements have been taken of air flow and energy consumption on various types of ventilating systems in pig confinement buildings prior to and after cleaning the systems. After cleaning, air flow increases from 0.5 to 62 per cent were registered, dependent on the soiling rate of the ventilating unit. At the same time the energy consumption remained unchanged or was proportionally increasing concurrently with the increased air flow, however dependent on the system characteristic of the ventilator. On hot summer days (heat waves) the ventilation system, when regularly cleaned, will ensure optimal climatic conditions inside the building. The air flow reduction rate is difficult to estimate visually when the ventilation system is soiled. Technical research is needed on the subject ``Soiling and Cleaning Ventilation Systems for Use in Livestock Buildings``. A standard method for determination of the degree of sensitivity towards soiling found in ventilation system is especially needed, so that comparisons and distinctions between the different types and manufactures can thereby be made.
