Abstract
Ventilation of the marine engine room is very important for the health of the workers as well as the normal operation of machines. To find proper ventilation conditions of this engine room numerical simulation with a standard k-$\varepsilon$model was carried out. In the present study the marine engine room is considered as a closed space with a heat source and forced ventilation ducts. The injection angle of air supply is found to be important. Injection with a downward angle depresses recirculation flow causing a strong stream in the wider space of the room Ventilation and removal of the released heat are promoted with this pattern, There is a possibility of local extreme heating at the upper surface of the engine when supply and exhaust ports of air are in bilateral symmetry.
