Design of Air Distribution System for Operation Theatre Using Flow Visualization Techniques to Improve Flow Characteristics
Authors
Abstract:
Operation Theatre (OT) is the most important area where precise controlled on indoor air quality is required because it is directly related to patient health and its recovery period. This work aims to study and visualize the airflow distribution of conventional flat air diffuser ventilation system and newly designed angular air ventilation system in OT. Angular Air Distribution (AAD) system is designed in such way that, conditioned air is throw in OT with some angle so it can cover the maximum area of OT with laminar flow and minimum installation area. The performance of angular air distribution (AAD) system with varying inlet diffuser angle, constant 0.4m/s inlet velocity and air flow pattern are investigated with the help of numerical simulation and experimental setup of prototype OT model. Detail experimental investigation is done on a prototype with the help of a smoke test and camera target method (CTM). Both numerical and experimental results showed a similar pattern of air distribution for the various design configurations.

The demand for flow visualization software stems from the popular (and growing) use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the increasing complexity of simulation data. CFD is popular with manufacturers as it reduces cost and the time of production relative to the expense involved in creating a real physical model. Modifications to a physical model to test new prototypes may be non-trivial a...

As simulations have migrated towards three-dimensions, new tools for examining the resulting complex datasets have been required. Much progress has been achieved in the area of scientific visualization towards this goal. However, most of the research has focused on the representation and understanding of a single scalar field. Some nice results have been achieved for vector or flow fields. This...

This paper describes three diierent methods for visualization of vector elds: selective visualization, statistical visualization, and turbulent particles. The rst method enables the user to focus on the interesting parts of a data set by creation, processing, and display of selected parts. The second technique visualizes statistical quantities about a region of interest rather than raw data. Fo...

The flow behavior around a cam shaped tube in cross flow has been investigated experimentally using flow visualization and pressure distribution measurement. The range of attack angle and Reynolds number based on an equivalent circular diameter are within 0 ≤ α ≤ 360˚ and 2 x 104 < Reeq < 3.4 x 104, respectively. The pressure drag features are clarified in relation to the flow behavior around t...
