Article Synopsis
- The study addresses temperature control challenges in multi-tiered chicken layer houses due to structural influences and flock heat dissipation, leading to inconsistent temperature management.
- A new ventilation approach called Combined Positive- and Negative-Pressure Ventilation (CPNPV) is introduced alongside a dynamic temperature model that utilizes a Variable Universe Fuzzy PID (VFPID) control algorithm for enhanced precision.
- Results show that this VFPID control method significantly improves temperature regulation accuracy by 20-23.53% over traditional control methods, validating the effectiveness of the model and offering valuable insights for better environmental control in poultry farming.
CFD Investigation on Combined Ventilation System for Multilayer-Caged-Laying Hen Houses.
Animals (Basel)
September 2024
Mechanical ventilation is an important means of environmental control in multitier laying hen cages. The mainstream ventilation mode currently in use, negative-pressure ventilation (NPV), has the drawbacks of a large temperature difference before and after adjustment and uneven air velocity distribution. To solve these problems, this study designed and analyzed a combined positive and negative-pressure ventilation system for laying hen cages.
