Effective ventilation is critical to the prevention of cross-infection resulting from airborne pathogens in hospitals. This seminar discusses the air distributions in hospital operating rooms and wards. Both experiment and Computational Fluid Dynamics are used in the analysis of the air pattern. Using the validated CFD tools, we can explore the design options to create a safe, healthy and energy efficient air distribution in hospitals. As an example, a case study of using natural ventilation in hospital wards is discussed.
