The operating stability of centralized air supplying and dust removing system (CASDRS) is the guarantee of efficiency and the quality of the cigarette making process. The pressure changing in the network, the value of the flow rate of the branch and especially the system resistance balance are the main evaluate indexes of the system. In this paper, a simulation model of CASDRS is built, as an evaluate tool of the system to analyze stability and energy saving potential. The simulation toolbox MATLAB/simulink is employed to analysis the resistance balance of the system, a pipe-net model is developed to the ventilation system. Through the connection of the blocks in the simulink toolbox, the operation of the matrixes which including constraining parameter input matrixes, the connection of the matrix and the calculation of the element of the matrix and the matrix itself, the system simulation model is obtained. The sensitivity result is given as the input parameters varied hourly and the result about energy consumption is more accurate.
