摘要：High-concentration oil mists from machining plant equipment can cause serious health problems for workers. The concentration of oil mist is generally reduced by ventilation and purification systems. However, the coupling relationship and interaction between purification and ventilation systems are not well understood. This study is based on an actual machining factory. First, the CFD simulation method was validated by the experimental data. Secondly, the influence of purifier exhaust air and exhaust air direction on oil mist distribution was studied. The results show that the influence of purifier exhaust air cannot be ignored in the prediction of oil mist concentration distribution. The difference in oil mist concentration and oil mist removal efficiency was 24% and 20%, respectively, with and without the purifier exhaust. Compared with the vertical exhaust direction of the purifier, the purifier with horizontal exhaust has fewer areas with higher oil mist concentrations. However, for the oil mist concentration at 1.5 m above the floor, the vertical exhaust air of the purifier is 0.1 mg/m3 lower than the horizontal exhaust air, and the removal efficiency is increased by 6.9%.
