Calculate the required hood air volume flow rate using GREENHECK method # 1 & 2.
Solution
GREENHECH Method # 1:As per the recommendations we have to use wall mounted canopy hood
Hood length = 36" + 24" + 36" + 2 6" = 108" (9 ft)
Hood widthth = 30" + 30" + 36" + 3" + 6" = 45" (3.75 ft)
Hood area = 9 3.75 = 33.75 ft2.
Fryer area = 36" 30" = 1080 in2 (7.5 ft2).
Griddle area = 24" 30" = 720 in2 (5 ft2).
Oven area = 36" 36" = 1080 in2 (9 ft2).
Total cooking equipments face area under the hood = 7.5 + 5 + 9 = 21.5 ft 2.
Any cooking equipment required air volume flow rate = Cooking face area (ft 2) Updraft velocity for that equipmen
So fryer required air volume flow rate = 7.5 85 = 637.5 cfm
Griddle required air volume flow rate = 5 85 = 425 cfm
Oven required air volume flow rate = 9 50 = 450 cfm
Overhang & other spaces required air volume flow rate = (33.75 - 21.5) 50 = 612.5 cfm
Total required air volume flow rate = 637.5 + 425 + 450 + 612.5 =
GREENHECH Method # 2 (appliance specified method):As per the recommendations we have to use wall mounted canopy hood
Hood length = 36" + 24" + 36" + 2 6" = 108" (9 ft)
Hood widthth = 30" + 30" + 36" + 3" + 6" = 45" (3.75 ft)
So left overhang required air volume flow rate = 0.5 ft 200 cfm / ft = 100 cfm
Fryer required air volume flow rate = 3 ft 250 cfm / ft = 750 cfm
Griddle required air volume flow rate = 2 ft 250 cfm / ft = 500 cfm
Oven required air volume flow rate = 3 ft 250 cfm / ft = 600 cfm
Right overhang required air volume flow rate = 0.5 ft 200 cfm / ft = 100 cfm
Total = 2050 cfm
