Abstract:In the ongoing battle against new variants of COVID-19 and airborne-transmitted diseases, the focus on indoor air quality, particularly in enclosed spaces, has intensified. This study utilizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling to investigate how different air distribution setups can impact the spread of airborne COVID-19 particles. Air distribution systems are at the forefront of this research, specifically examining supply and exhaust diffuser placements and their effects on droplet dispersion dyna… Show more
