Calculate the required airflow for that size hood


Question: Your second task is to recommend a local exhaust ventilation system for the operation as a second option. The dip tank has the following dimensions: 2 feet (width) by 5 feet (length) by 2 feet (depth). Based on the recommendations in the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) manual, you decide that a capture velocity of 100 ft/min would be adequate for the operation. Specify which hood type you would use, the size of the hood opening, and the duct diameter you would recommend for the operation. State the distance you would place the hood opening from the work. Calculate the required airflow for that size hood and the capture velocity of 100 ft/min. The formula for the calculation can also be found in the presentation for the unit.
