Added second deck to Lincoln 1000. Heat in the kitchen was a problem last summer and now we have doubled the problem
Proposed solution is to create an enclosure around the ovens with powered exhaust to outside.
(No, we are not required to have UL hood in this location for gas fired oven)
Plenty of makeup air available in summer… Winter heat will be recirculated through the dining area
Concerns are about getting adequate velocity thru the ends of the enclosure to keep waste heat going up not out, while not inducing enough negative pressure to back draft the oven flues.
I have included some nominal drawings and calculated specs below, and would look forward to any tech opinions on the enclosure as planned
TIA

Specs:
Materials: 1/4" Backer Board over metal studs
Ventilation Rate: 1500 cfm
Free Air Space: 30 sq ft X 2 60 sq ft total
Calculated Face Velocity: 0.4 ft/sec
Available makeup air space: Summer 120 sq/ft Winter N/A
