Analysis of livestock environment control by simulation technique and field data.

Author(s) : VRANKEN E., BERCKMANS D., GOEDSEELS V.

Summary

A dynamic model based on physical laws and field measurements has been developed to simulate temperature, humidity and gas concentration in livestock buildings and the emission of ammonia from these buildings. The model consists of several sub models and permits to evaluate different control algorithms for heating and ventilation of livestock buildings. By using this simulation technique a new climate control algorithm for livestock buildings has been designed, which, compared to a traditional climate control algorithm, has several advantages in terms of energy use, reduced temperature fluctuations and reduced ammonia emission.
