Computer simulation in the design of local exhaust hoods for shielded metal arc welding / Kimberly D. Tum Suden, Michael R. Flynn and Randall Goodman

Sumario: Computer simulations were used to examine competing exhaust hood configurations for shielded metal arc welding. The welder's breathing zone concentration appears to be an inverse linear function of the computer-predicted hood capture efficiency. Hood aspect ratio, hood flow, and the welder's position relative to the hood all have a significant effect on the breathing zone concentration
