Theoretical and experimental substantiation of the system of local removal of harmful substances during the combustion of candles in the worship hall of Orthodox churches and cathedrals

摘要

The analysis of the features of Orthodox churches, temples and cathedrals, elements of the design of the halls of worship, and their preservation. The types of hazards generated during the burning of candles and the parishioners and staff present are systematized. Thermal imaging surveys of convective flows formed during candle combustion were carried out. A technique for conducting experiments and a diagram of an experimental setup for measuring the temperature and air velocity in a convective jet have been developed. The diagram of the convective flow structure is presented, which consists of individual jets from each candle. The results of the study have been obtained, which make it possible to determine the area of stable convective flow and the place of installation of the exhaust hood above the candlestick, as well as the distance between the burning candles and the edge of the bottom of the umbrella. A local mechanical exhaust ventilation system with umbrellas has been developed to trap and remove harmful substances from the worship hall and provide comfortable conditions for parishioners and preserve the decoration elements of the halls. The characteristics and conditions for the efficient operation of the hoods in the local exhaust ventilation system and the factors influencing their operation are given.
