In-train particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) concentrations: Level, source, composition, mitigation measures and health risk effect - A systematic literature review

Muhsin K. Otuyo et al.

Summary: This review examines the concentration levels and health effects of particulate matter (PM) in trains. The study finds that PM concentration is significantly higher in the underground segment compared to the above/ground levels, with 80% of in-train PM concentrations exceeding the WHO standard. People's activities, mechanical movement of train parts, train operation conditions, and local emissions are identified as the primary sources of PM.

A review of human thermal plume and its influence on the inhalation exposure to particulate matter

Jie Zong et al.

Summary: This paper reviews studies on the human thermal plume and its impact on inhalation exposure to particulate matter in the breathing zone. The human thermal plume can transport particle pollutants from the floor to the breathing zone, leading to higher concentration of inhaled particulate matter. However, under specific conditions, it may also prevent particulate matter from entering the breathing zone. Understanding the characteristics and influencing factors of the human thermal plume is essential for mitigating inhalation exposure to particulate matter and achieving independent and personalized control of the human microenvironment.

Integrated effects of the heat recovery ventilation and heat source on decay rate of indoor airborne particles: A comparative study

Aminhossein Jahanbin et al.

Summary: This study investigates the combined effects of ventilation and heat source on indoor particle dispersion. The impact of different heating systems on particle decay rate was evaluated and compared. The results showed that increasing the ventilation rate can weaken the influence of heating system on particle decay rate.

Numerical study of the influence of ventilation modes on the distribution and deposition of particles generated from a specific cooking process in a residential kitchen

Yuanbo Wang et al.

Summary: Computational fluid dynamics were used to study particle diffusion and deposition in a residential kitchen, finding that rising thermal plume has a significant influence on particle diffusion, while turbulence plays a crucial role in the diffusion of small particles. Additionally, ventilation mode and particle concentration near the wall were identified as important factors affecting particle concentration distribution and deposition flux.

The Effects of Warm Air Heater on the Dispersion and Deposition of Particles in an Enclosed Environment

Xi Chen et al.

Summary: The study found that higher particle deposition rates were observed when the warm air heater was operating. Additionally, the decay rate loss coefficients of particles increased with the heater's output power and the proximity of particles to the heater's air outlet, but were also affected by the direction of the warm air flow.
