Abstract
Abstract In operating rooms with unidirectional air flow a wake is formed below the light. The influence of the geometry on the dimension of the wake and the age of air were investigated by means of validated numerical simulations as well as experimental measurements. The vertical dimension of the wake caused by the circular surgical light was 1.08 m in height. With an air-permeable shape, it could be reduced to 0.38 m (brim) to 0.28 m (centre). A more open design increased the dilution within the recirculating area and resulted in a shorter residence time of contaminants.
期刊介绍：
This is a peer reviewed journal aimed at providing the latest information on research and application.
Topics include:
• New ideas concerned with the development or application of ventilation;
• Validated case studies demonstrating the performance of ventilation strategies;
• Information on needs and solutions for specific building types including: offices, dwellings, schools, hospitals, parking garages, urban buildings and recreational buildings etc;
• Developments in numerical methods;
• Measurement techniques;
• Related issues in which the impact of ventilation plays an important role (e.g. the interaction of ventilation with air quality, health and comfort);
• Energy issues related to ventilation (e.g. low energy systems, ventilation heating and cooling loss);
• Driving forces (weather data, fan performance etc).
