Abstract

The air exchange rate regulating the climate inside of natural ventilated livestock buildings is hard to determine in the field due to the variability of time and space of the dominant processes. Experiments in a wind tunnel laboratory can produce sound statistical and representative data obtained under controlled boundary conditions to complete data sets from the field. In this study, measurements of the horizontal wind components within a model of a natural ventilated barn were performed in the wind tunnel. The approach flow was chosen with low turbulence in order to gain knowledge on the influence of the installed equipment on the air flow. In fact, the measured profiles were influenced by the installed equipment and the feeding alley.
