11/1/2018 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn article investigating the potential use of canopy air curtain systems in protecting shuttle car operators from respirable dust.
-
7/1/2015 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA report focused on validating a series of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models using full-scale ventilation gallery data that assessed how curtain setback distance impacted airflow patterns and methane distributions at an empty mining face.
