Abstract

This study conducts a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis to simulate and evaluate the airflow distribution within a ducting system designed for a urea storage warehouse. The objective is to optimize the ventilation layout to ensure uniform air distribution, minimize pressure losses, and enhance thermal efficiency. The target temperature range for urea stability is 35℃ to 40℃, and the CFD analysis shows that the average urea temperature achieved is 37.6℃ (approximately 310.6 K). Additionally, the average air temperature on the XY plane is 27.8℃, indicating effective thermal separation between airflow and stored material. Air distribution inside the warehouse is shown to be uniform, with an average airflow velocity on the XY plane of 0.87 m/s. These outcomes highlight the capability of the ducting design to maintain suitable environmental conditions for urea preservation. Additionally, the findings offer data-backed insights that can guide enhancements in ducting system designs for industrial warehouses, contributing to improved air quality and safer storage environments.
