HVAC for Bakery
(OP)
Anyone has experience with bakeries?
My concern is related to the fact that room with ovens has no separation from several other process rooms.
Ovens have cinematic gas burners, and there will probably be no chance for ventilation to not disturb adequate combustion air supply, though heat rejection would be my preferable way of dealing with heat emissions if I had chance with it.
Bakery rooms resemble boiler rooms to me, and I still don't have final concept on how to achieve at least minimum comfort for full-shift employees.

Supply the customer area,
transfer into kitchen,
exhaust up hood.
Add minimal supply to kitchen if you want to keep bakers somewhat comfortable, but I wouldnt (waste of energy). Cant handle the heat...
knowledge is power

Worker comfort in the service industry is not the same as in say retail. You work in a bakery/kitchen setting... it will be hot.
My local Captive Air rep is a wealth of knowledge and a great resource.

All issue is with make-up air from room, as total capacity is about 700 kW.
If I use norms for boiler room (which specifically state to not cover such cases), I will have to have grilles all over opposing walls, and I am concerned about employee comfort.

If this is the case then you need to determine the heat gain from the ovens and go from there.

Industrial workplace naturally have different specs for comfort, but that mostly affect applied calculations, as some level of comfort is necessary; it is draft what concerns me, but that will likely be solved by increased effective surface of exhaust grilles.
