Therefore, design an enclosing hood to reduce ventilation rates and decrease the potential for exposure to a spill during fueling。 Design the hood as illustrated in Figure 4-11。 Specify the following criteria for the refueling hoods。
a。 A 76 mm (3-in) airfoil rotated inward to prevent turbulence and backflow。
b。 Lighting that is vented and flush mounted in the top of the exhaust hood。
c。 Hood that bolts the floor, using a continuous natural rubber gasket on hood bottom to create a seal between the hood and the floor。

4-3。2。6 Ductwork。 Follow criteria as specified in paragraph 2-4。1 for both MK-46 and MK-48 shops and the following:
a。 Fabricate all ductwork in contact with Otto Fuel II vapors with (black) carbon steel。 Require all joints be either butt welds or flanges。
b。 Size the duct to maintain a minimum transport velocity of 12。7 m/s (2,500 fpm)。
4-3。2。7 Fans。 Select fans as specified in paragraph 2-4。2。
4-3。3 Weather Stack Design and Location。 Proper dispersion from the stack is critical because Otto Fuel II exhaust is not filtered。 See paragraph 2-4。3。
4-3。4 Air Cleaning Devices。 Due to the quantities and types of contaminants generated by these processes, there is no requirement for air pollution control equipment。
4-3。5 Replacement Air。 Design replacement air systems to maintain a pressure (relative to the atmosphere) ranging from -5。0 to -14。9 Pa (-0。02 to -0。06 inches wg) in the spaces with a potential for personnel exposure。 Maintain the spaces with a low potential for personnel exposure at a differential pressure ranging from 2。49 to 12。4 Pa (+0。01 to +0。05 inches wg)。
4-3。5。1 Quantity and Distribution。 Distribute air to produce laminar flow of air from supply to exhaust in the workspace。 Use vertical supply distribution method as
shown on Figure 4-12。 Horizontal supply distribution method as shown on Figure 4-13 is adequate if, and only if, all exhaust hoods are located on the wall opposite the supply plenum。 See paragraph 2-4。5 for detailed criteria。
Figure 4-12。 Vertical distribution method。
Figure 4-13。 Horizontal distribution method。
4-3。5。1。1 Vertical Distribution Method。 Design a drop ceiling with perforated plate to form a plenum in accordance with paragraph 2-4。5。2。
4-3。5。1。2 Horizontal Distribution Method。 Design the wall plenum to cover the entire wall opposite the hoods。 Size the open area of the perforated sheet for 10。16 m/s (2,000 fpm) through the holes。 See Figure 4-13 for more details。
4-3。6 Heating and Air Conditioning。 Design heating, air conditioning, and humidity control according to MILHDBK 1003/3。 Temper the replacement air to provide a minimum winter design temperature of 18 oC (65 oF) and a maximum summer design temperature of 24 oC (75 oF), with a maximum relative humidity of 50 percent。 Do not separate the air conditioning system from the replacement air system。 See paragraph 2-6。2 for criteria on heat recovery systems。 Do not re-circulate exhaust air。
4-4 SYSTEM CONTROLS。 Design system controls in accordance with paragraph 2-5 and the following:
