This paper aims at showing the difference between the two approaches used to evaluate the capture efficiency of a local ventilation system : an experimental research using the tracer gas method ( CO2) and the numerical modelling using CFD code ( STAR-CD). Comparison between the two methods show that the CFD modelling can provide results in good agreement with the experiment.
