Influencing factors in the simulation of airflow and particle transportation in aircraft cabins by CFD

Qing Cao et al.

Summary: Effective ventilation systems are essential for controlling the transport of particles like the SARS-CoV-2 virus in airliner cabins. Validated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are frequently used to investigate air distribution and contaminant transportation. This study evaluated the effects of different ventilation systems, turbulence models, and particle simulation methods on airflow and particulate distributions in airliner cabins. The results show that accuracy and cost-effectiveness can be achieved by carefully selecting validation processes and simulation methods.

Transport and dispersion of tracers simulating COVID-19 aerosols in passenger aircraft

Steven Hanna

Summary: This paper focuses on estimating the risk of a person indoors becoming infected with COVID-19, specifically looking at the near-field transport and dispersion of the virus particles. The study suggests that the transport and dispersion process can be modeled using commonly used analytical formulations such as a slab model, a Gaussian plume model, or a diffusivity model. The proposed slab model is validated using observations from a tracer experiment in airplanes, showing agreement with actual concentration and dose measurements within a factor of two or three.

Evaluation of SARS-COV-2 transmission and infection in airliner cabins

Wensi Wang et al.

Summary: Commercial airliners have played a significant role in the global spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Using computational fluid dynamics, this study simulated the transmission of the virus on two flights. The results suggest that wearing masks and reducing conversation frequency can help mitigate the risk of exposure to the virus.

Experimental investigation of air distribution in an airliner cabin mockup with displacement ventilation

Mingxin Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that airflow and contaminant concentration distributions in commercial airliner cabins are crucial for creating a comfortable and healthy environment. However, the airflow is predominantly controlled by natural convection, and vertical temperature stratification may lead to passenger discomfort.

Computational fluid dynamics modeling of cough transport in an aircraft cabin

Malia Zee et al.

Summary: The study used Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations to track respiratory pathogen particles expelled by coughing on a Boeing 737 aircraft. Results showed that 80% of particles were removed from the cabin within 1.3-2.6 minutes, and 95% within 2.4-4.6 minutes. Reducing airflow increased particle dispersion but did not increase nearby passengers' highest exposure.

Experimental evaluation of particle exposure at different seats in a single-aisle aircraft cabin

Xingyang Li et al.

Summary: This study conducted experiments in a simulated aircraft cabin and found that the particle exposure was lowest at window seats. The presence of a passenger in the middle seat who did not release particles helped disperse particles and reduce exposure for adjacent passengers. Additionally, released particles in the cabin mockup could be transported across at least four rows of seats in the longitudinal direction.

Air travel in a COVID-19 world: Commercial airline passengers' health concerns and attitudes towards infection prevention and disease control measures

Cristina Sotomayor-Castillo et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, passengers expressed high concerns about contracting diseases while flying and expected airlines to provide more information and measures for infection prevention. Airlines must ensure passengers about the steps taken to minimize travel risks and rebuild passengers' confidence in the recovery of the air travel industry.

Transmission of COVID-19 virus by cough-induced particles in an airliner cabin section

Yihuan Yan et al.

Summary: This study numerically investigated the transmission of COVID-19 by cough-induced particles in an airliner cabin environment, revealing that cough flow released by passengers could rapidly develop into a strong turbulent cough jet, with particles dominated by the cough jet within the first 1.5 seconds, especially when released by window-seat passengers. Small particles released by window-seat passengers were more likely to spread widely, posing the highest exposure risks to nearby passengers.
