Evaluation of line brattice length in an empty heading to improve air flow rate at the face using CFD

The effectiveness of line brattice (LB) ventilation system depends on the associated system variables. However, the effect of these variables on the air flow rates close to the face of the heading is not extensively studied. In this paper, the effect of the LB length in relation to the LB-wall dista...
