Airborne droplet and aerosols have been identified as contributors in transmission of various diseases like COVID-19. “Movement and Control of Airborne Pathogens with HVAC Systems” highlights case studies and CFD analysis of airflow patterns' impact on transmission of such airborne contaminants in buildings with higher air flow rates and ways to mitigate it. This session also highlights the design and performance of a wind tunnel that helped in coronavirus aerosol collection for measurements and inactivation in lower air flow rates applications, such as in portable air purification systems. Attendees will also learn about a pilot study of a novel PECO technology used to destroy airborne viruses in a hospital.
