Accurate Representations of the Microphysical Processes Occurring during the Transport of Exhaled Aerosols and Droplets

Jim S. Walker et al.

Summary: Aerosols and droplets expelled during respiratory events are crucial in transmitting pathogens, but there are uncertainties in understanding the microphysics of aerosol droplets. Research shows that sedimentation outcomes vary in sensitivity to composition and environmental conditions based on droplet size, with evaporation process nature playing a key role in influencing the outcome.

Fluid dynamics and epidemiology: Seasonality and transmission dynamics

Talib Dbouk et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of weather seasonality on virus transmission dynamics, introduces a new Airborne Infection Rate (AIR) index, and provides data evidence on how weather seasonality leads to two pandemic outbreaks per year.

Analysis of droplet evaporation in isotropic turbulence through droplet-resolved DNS

Michael S. Dodd et al.

Summary: This study conducted DNS of evaporation of n-heptane fuel droplets in forced homogeneous isotropic turbulence and carried out a parametric study. The results showed that increasing the liquid volume fraction of droplets decreases the evaporation rate and causes deviation from the classical law.
