Transport of airborne particles within a room

A technique used for the analysis of the contaminant transport in the wake of a bluff body is tested under controlled experimental conditions for application to aerosol transport in a complex furnished room. The authors ' hypothesis is that the dispersion of contaminants in a room is related to the turbulence kinetic energy and length scale. Their approach has been tested both in laboratory and with CFD simulations. Results and conclusions are presented.
