About The CourseWelcome to the CoursePlus Web site for VENTILATION CONTROLS (182.622.19), a course offered by the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
Presents principles of air flow as applied to design and evaluation of industrial ventilation systems. Laboratory sessions illustrate fundamental aspects of system components.
Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: 1. Achieve a general understanding of the occupational/environmental health approach to risk management; 2. Define the characteristics of local exhaust and general dilute ventilation; 3. Analyze the performance of ventilation systems; 4. Select a appropriate exhaust hood, balance flow in ducts, determine exhaust fan requirements, and choose the appropriate air cleaning technology to use for standard industrial operations; 5. Design a balanced local exhaust ventilation system integrating all components.
