Optimization of Operations of Air Purifiers for Control of Indoor PM2.5 Using BIM and CFD

Prevention of PM2.5 is attracting increasing attention all over the world as can cause and exacerbate respiratory diseases. Compared with conventional natural ventilation mechanical ventilation, air purifiers particular filters are more efficient in control indoor PM2.5. Currently, there limited studies on operations portable purifiers. To improve efficiency an purifier PM2.5, optimal operational strategy needed. This paper proposes a framework for optimization based building information modeling (BIM) computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A case study conducted to validate proposed results discussed. It be shown from that best location increase by up 33% compared other locations.
