Puri, Mar 21: Today two scientists of CISR-Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research (CIMFR) will be visiting Jagamohan, the hall facing the 12th century shrine of Lord Jagannath on the request of Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) to carry out the inspection of the sanctum sanctorum and Jagamohan. During the fabrication of Jagmohan smoke is likely to become an issue and so this inspection is to be carried out. Considering the Jagamohan issue and problem in ventilation of the sanctum sanctorum, to carry out the smooth circulation of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the shrine, the team will hold discussions with the SJTA on the steps to be taken for the smooth flow of O2 and CO2. Senior Principal Scientist and Professor of CSIR-CIMFR Dhanbad, Dr JK Pandey said that the issue can be resolved if the work is done as per the instruction of the scientists. Pandey further stated to the media that improve in the air circulation will make the devotees get a comfortable environment while visiting the shrine. Basing on the visitors per hour, how much carbon dioxide they are producing in 20-30 minutes, what is the ventilation capacity, what is the suction capacity of the fans installed overhead and the resistance capacity can be calculated and after the study a solution can be found out.
