Selection of proper roof ventilators to match application and environment standards is key to both smelter function and interior working conditions. Computational fluid dynamic simulations can predicatively demonstrate to end users and assist engineers, coupled with traditional calculations and physical modeling, in the optimization of smelter ventilation reducing total installed costs while assuring that the proper solution is in place for the complete lifecycle of the process equipment and manpower that will spend many man-hours working. Our research and practice has developed number ventilation methods, which can be predicatively verified utilizing CFD simulation techniques.Results have been fully implemented on a number of smelter applications and we continue to study, optimize and innovate as new tools become available to provide the best possible engineered solutions for particular applications
