Description: With the rumor of energy crisis, people are more and more concerned when using energy. For the pig growers with environment-controlled buildings, the efficient use of energy means that ventilation and heating must be done with minimum losses. Swine are homeothermic animals and a thermal environment exists for them in which maximum productivity occurs. The optimum temperature of interest for the farmer, however, is not always the optimum in the physiological sense but rather in an engineering sense for profitable production. Good swine growth and efficiency occur in a broad range of temperatures (5). Growing-finishing pigs perform about equally well in a range of air temperatures from 50 to 75
Keywords: simulation study of constant rate winter ventilation for growing-finishing swine
