H-NAC Hybrid Natural Air Conditioning
CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation of local airflow control and microwave systems for the reduction of COVID19 risks in the indoor environment
keywords AEROSOL TECHNOLOGY, AIRBORNE, CFD, COVID-19, VENTILATION
Reference persons MARCO SIMONETTI
Research Groups H-NAC Hybrid Natural Air Conditioning
Thesis type NUMERICAL AND DESIGN ORIENTED
Description The work will focus on the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation and assessment of risk reduction of COVID-19 airborne contagion by the introduction of local airflow control device and microwave virus-killer systems. Two patented technologies, one, the Bio-Stopper (link below for a TV presentation), property of Politecnico di Torino, and one proposed by a leading electronic company, will be included in the simulations.
