HVAC system considerations in operating rooms
According to reports from the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 1.4 million people contract infections during their hospital stay at any given time. These range from the flu contracted in waiting rooms to post-surgical infections acquired during prolonged stays in operating rooms. In the latter case, the risk of infection increases depending on a country's level of development, and the figures can be 2 to 20 times higher in developing countries (WHO, 2016). / See more.
Fundamentals of air diffusion for HVAC systems
Recent studies show that improving indoor air quality by a factor of 2 to 7 compared to existing standards significantly increases productivity in offices and learning in schools, while decreasing the risk of allergy symptoms and asthma in homes (Ole Fanger P, 2006). / See more.
