CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) modelling of particle transport has been applied for the control of airborne particles in the operating zone above the surgery table in an operating room. Based on the numerical results, it has been found that the particle source location, air (supply) inlet design, operating table location, and lamp design are among the critical parameters responsible for the particle distribution within the operating room.
