The characteristics of airborne transmission with convective and radiant cooling systems

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleProfessional

Abstract

The enclosed indoor environments are high‐risk spaces for airborne transmission if spaces are densely occupied and poorly ventilated. Based on the recognized airborne infection risk, there is a raised demand to develop innovative micro-environment ventilation systems to mitigate the airborne transmission risk indoors. Air distribution is playing a significant role and to reach same concentration level in the breathing zone mixing ventilation requires much higher airflow rate than micro-environment solution.
