Ventsim Model Assembly
In the case where there is no ventilation model available the
process is simple and straightforward.
John Rowland uses and
relies on “Ventsim” software which is a world class modelling
tool and by far the most popular software in use in Australia.
The client
furnishes John with a plan along with quantity and pressure data
from site measurements and a rough model is assembled in the
Dallas office.
The accuracy of
the model is then validated against measured data and John will
normally spend a number of days underground picking up
sufficient data to accurately validate the newly built model.
The completed
model will be handed over to the client along with suggestions
on how to maintain it on a regular basis.

Updates
Dallas Mining specialise in updating and validating dated and
inaccurate ventilation models.
Sometimes this
may require dragging hoses around the pit to measure individual
resistances such as overcast and L/W faces but rarely involves a
full pressure/quantity survey.
The technique
normally involves a couple of days underground re-establishing
appropriate stations and gathering the flows and differential
pressures required to get the model back into tune
When completed
the client will have a functional validated and aesthetically
pleasing model with which to work. The challenge then is to keep
it that way and with the right tips and a bit of commitment
minesite staff can keep it in a good state of tune at all times
ready for any predictive work that may be necessary.
