Description: Swine dust was used as a test dust to verify a lumped-parameter model derived for predicting airborne dust con centrations at any location within a ventilated airspace. Average equilibrium airborne dust concentrations were predicted as a func tion of ventilation and dust generation rates. Time-dependent airborne dust concentrations at a designated location (or control volume), also were predicted from ventilation and dust generation rates. The model calculation, solved as a 3-D lumped form of control volumes, represented conservation of air massflow rate. Swinedust used in this project had an average aerodynamic diameter of 2 |im and 95% of the dust particles were less than 5 pm in diameter and approximately 45% of the particles were 2 pm in diameter. Both ventilation rate and dust generation rate have a significant effect on airborne dust concentration. The lumped-parameter model is shown to be capable of predicting the ventilation rate required to maintain acceptable levels of airborne dust in confinement animal buildings. The accuracy of the modelis influencedby the test dust particle size uniformity.
