Numerical Study of the Respiratory Aerosols Transportation in Ventilated Classroom
Ventilation is important for controlling the airborne transmission of infectious respiratory diseases, particularly in crowed and enclosed spaces, where exist higher risks of cross-infection. This paper studies the spatial concentration distribution and particle tracks of students talking continuously in a classroom with two air distribution methods, including mixing ventilation (MV) and displacement ventilation (DV) using CFD simulations. The classroom is occupied by 10 students with a seating arrangement of 5 rows and 2 columns. The objective of this study is to find out which ventilation mode is more effective in removing respiratory aerosols. The simulation results indicated that the displacement ventilation with the low air supply velocity magnitude and low turbulence could remove the respiratory aerosol droplets and minimize the risk of infectious effectively compared with mixing ventilation.
