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.
