Разработка параметрической модели определения газового состава воздушной среды (аммиак, сероводород, углекислый газ) животноводческого помещения

Abstract

Indoor climate parameters influence the productivity of animals and their physiological condition. Exceeding permissible concentrations of gases leads to animal diseases, loss of productivity, and the mortality of young cattle. Therefore, it is reasonable to predict the concentration of gas composition in the livestock houses. To determine and distribute harmful gases (ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, and carbon dioxide) in the livestock house, the authors performed the 3D modeling of a fragment of the farm in the SolidWorks 2020 software package. Parametric models of gas movement under different conditions were created and optimal measurement points of gas concentration in the livestock house were determined. The simulations made it possible to determine the direction of air flows and detect accumulations and clouds of gases. The maximum concentration of carbon dioxide was detected at 0.9m (an air speed of 0 m/sec) and at 1.3m (a speed of 0.75 m/sec). The highest concentration of hydrogen sulphide was found in the area bordering the ridge space (an air speed of 0 m/s) and at the level of 2.25 m (a speed of 2 m/s). The highest concentration of ammonia was observed under the roof and in the area under the ridge (an air speed of 2 m/s). It is recommended to install hydrogen sulphide and ammonia sensors under the ridge, while carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and ammonia sensors – in the stall, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide sensors – near the feed table. Concentrations should be measured at heights of 500, 1500, and 3000 mm. When the concentration of emitted gas increases and other conditions are equal, the concentration of gas in the cloud increases, but the structure of the cloud changes insignificantly. Parameter interrogation sensors should be installed in enclosed ventilated boxes in the same manner as in weather stations.
