Study on the kinetic characteristics of indoor air pollutants removal by ventilation

Tianhu Zhang et al.

Summary: Ventilation is an effective method for removing indoor air pollutants, and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method provides an efficient approach to studying the removal efficiency. However, the CFD method is often constrained by long computational times. This study investigates the kinetic characteristic of air pollutant removal by ventilation to reduce computational time. The results show that the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) kinetic model accurately predicts the removal efficiency of VOCs in the absence of barriers, while the removal of particulate matter is less accurately predicted. The L-H kinetic model is a useful tool for designing ventilation strategies when airflow-determined pollutants are present.

Optimization of energy efficiency and COVID-19 pandemic control in different indoor environments

Yong Guo et al.

Summary: This study develops a quantitative model based on human behavior to balance infection risk and energy consumption in different indoor environments. Using Beijing's Wangjing Block as an example, the study finds that the current ventilation standard is insufficient for preventing and controlling COVID-19, and the optimal fresh air ventilation rates in most indoor environments are below 60 m3/h/person.

Investigation of the quasi-periodic airflow oscillation and ventilation performance of an enclosed environment with a jet air supply

Haidong Wang et al.

Summary: Unsteady airflows in ventilated enclosures are found to enhance mixing and pollutant dispersion. This study investigates the flow characteristics of an air jet ventilated enclosure, demonstrating the advantages of quasi-periodic fluctuation in airflow for ventilation efficiency.

Investigation of airborne particle exposure in an office with mixing and displacement ventilation

Sumei Liu et al.

Summary: Effective ventilation is crucial in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in buildings. This study compared the performance of a mixing ventilation (MV) system and a displacement ventilation (DV) system in terms of air temperature and particle concentration. Increasing the ventilation rate reduced the particle concentration, but the improvement was not proportional to the ventilation rate. The DV system had a higher ventilation effectiveness than the MV system, making it a better choice for indoor air quality.

A systematic review of possible airborne transmission of the COVID-19 virus (SARS-CoV-2) in the indoor air environment

Zahra Noorimotlagh et al.

Summary: The possibility of airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in indoor air environments has been highlighted in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Measures such as improving ventilation, maintaining interpersonal distance, and considering the airborne transmission route are crucial for protecting health.

Investigating the effect of air conditioning on the distribution and transmission of COVID-19 virus particles

Mahdi Ahmadzadeh et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effect of indoor airflow on the distribution and transmission of droplets emitted by an infected person during speaking and coughing in a classroom. Results showed that air conditioning and opening windows near the infected person significantly reduced environmental pathogens, with a recommendation to keep windows open in indoor environments, especially next to the speaker.

Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation of Indoor Air Quality and Thermal Stratification of an Underfloor Air Distribution System (UFAD) with Various Vent Layouts

Neil Stephen Lopez et al.

Summary: The UFAD system has not been widely adopted in the residential and commercial air conditioning industry, with datacenters being the primary application due to their specific cooling requirements. Comparing different UFAD ventilation layouts, it was found that using multiple swirl-type diffusers can create a more uniform temperature distribution and reduce air recirculation. Placing return vents on the sides of the room helps isolate recirculating air and creates a cooler environment.
