SYNOPSIS The Paper describes a detailed investigation into thc problem of smoke extraction from engine sheds. The results obtained kom themodel-investigation and a full-scale test on a prototype indicated that thedesign of continuous smoke troughs and Venturi ventilators would be satisfactory ; 29 straight sheds were provided with new roofs of thistype...

SMOKE EXTRACTION FROM ENGINE SHEDS 209 facilitate visual observation offlow pat.terns by smoke. (For cylindrical parts such as chimneys, additional care requires to be taken to work, if powible. above t,heir rritical Reynolds numbers). (3) Where thermal effects are concerned, for example, when hot smoke is being discharged from a chimney, the modified Froude number should be equal for model v2 and full scale. Modified Froude number is -, where 8 is the temperature difference LB between discharged smoke and atmosphere. The attainment of equal values of this number for model and full scale is reasonably easy, since for equal 8, it leads to B full scale V ffi z/L, or for a &-scale model, V model = for example, where air is discharged from a ventilator into a wind stream, the momentum relationship between them, that is, should be the same for model and P 2 V82 full scale, where p, and pa are the densities, and V , and V s the velocities of the two streams respectively...

336 DISCUSSION ON THE REQUIREMENTS OF A CIVIL the effectiveness of a barrier 50 feet away (a reasonable distance in practice) depends on the height of the barrier. It will be noted that in this case there is little to be gained by increasing the effective height beyond say 30 feet. It could be assumed that the height of hangers and other large buildings at an airport ail1 be about 50 feet, that is, an effective height of 40 feet above the aircraft of engines, and Fig. 16 shows the effect on sound-level reduction variations in distance between the source of sound and a barrier of this height...
