In addition to temperature and relative humidity, the Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature index (WBGT) was simulated during the highest coffee production month. The proposed simulation model was able to predict hygrothermal behavior within the three coffee processing facilities. Case 3 presented the warmest environment, and case 2 the most humid environment concerning the appropriate conditions for the coffee and the worker. The WBGT index limit was exceeded in case 3. Since this type of facility emits large amounts of heat and steam, constructive modifications are suggested to improve the environmental conditions of workers and coffee. Mainly, the physical separation of the heat exchangers is recommended, which ideally should be outside the post-harvest facility. The steam produced in the dryi...

The objective of this study was to carry out an assessment of the acclimatization needs of a negative pressure ventilated broiler barn (hybrid) in 12 Brazilian cities, located in the 8 bioclimatic zones of the country. It was found that cities located in bioclimatic zones 1 and 2 require a higher energy consumption of heating during the chicks phase (0-21 days), while zones 7 and 8 require more energy for cooling during the chickens phase (22-42days). The cities located in zones 3, 4, 5 and 6 present the best comfort conditions and the greatest energy savings for the two phases.

Para proteger a los animales, los avicultores han utilizado diferentes estrategias, entre ellas está el uso de varias capas de cortinas para aumentar el nivel de aislamiento térmico y disminuir las pérdidas de calor, disminuyendo también la permeabilidad con el aire externo. En este contexto, es importante dar especial atención a la calidad del aire interno de los galpones avícolas como parte de una producción bajo parámetros de bienestar animal. El presente estudio fue realizado en el municipio de Barbacena, MG, en Brasil, y tuvo como objetivo evaluar la calidad del aire al nivel de los pollos y los trabajadores, específicamente de las concentraciones de amoniaco, dióxido de carbono y monóxido de carbono, en un galpón avícola naturalmente ventilado durante la primera fase de vida de pollos de engorde en el período de inverno, y la influencia del nivel de aislamiento con cortinas laterales sobre las concentraciones de amoniaco. Durante la primera semana experimental, los niveles de amoniaco sobrepasaron los valores aceptables, y se encontró diferencia estadística entre las concentraciones de amoniaco para los diferentes niveles de aislamiento con cortinas laterales. A B S T R A C T Broilers during the first phase should be protected from cold stress, especially in the winter, cold nights and early mornings. To protect animals, poultry producers have used different strategies, including the use of multilayer of curtain, to increase the thermal insulation and reduce heat losses, also decreasing the permeability to the external air. In this context it is important to give special attention to the indoor air quality of poultry sheds as part of a production under animal welfare parameters. This study was conducted in the municipality of Barbacena, MG, in Brazil, and aimed to assess air quality at the level of the chickens and workers, specifically concentrations of ammonia, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, in a poultry house naturally ventilated during the first phase of life of broilers in the winter period, and the influence of insulation level with side curtains on concentrations of ammonia. During the first experimental week, ammonia levels exceed acceptable values, and statistical difference was found between the concentrations of ammonia for different insulation levels with side curtains.
