Ventilation of the marine engine room is very important for the health of the workers as well as the nomal operation of machines. To find proper ventilation conditions of this engine room, numerical simulation with standard k-.epsilon. 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 downword angle depresses recirculation flow, causing a strong steam 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 engine when supply and exhaust ports of air are in bilateral symmetry. The effect of the increase of exhaust port area on ventilation decreases as the number of supply port increases.

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.

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 standard k-${\epsilon}$ model was carried out. In the present study, the marine engine room is separated to two floors with porus horizontal partition and considered as a closed space with a heat source and forced ventilation ducts. The porosity of horizontal partition is found to be important. For the engine room with 2 supply ports & 2 exhaust ports, the increasing of the porosity of horizontal partition is effective to reduce the recirculation flow zone in the second floor. When the engine room is ventilated with three supply air ports & one exhaust port, the increasing of the porosity of horizontal partition is effective to reduce the recirculating flow zone in the exhaust air area, but there is a possibility of local extreme heating at the lower side of engine near bottom.
