Abstract

Particulate dispersion within ventilated structures is an important practical problem in many biology-based industries. The overall aim of this project is to develop mathematical and computational models to characterise and predict air flow, turbulence and particle dispersion within ventilated structures. This will be done by: developing and assessing existing computational techniques, such as computational fluid dynamics, to model ventilating air flows; understanding the physical processes underlying particulate dispersion in such complex flows; developing appropriate Lagrangian particle tracking schemes to model particulate dispersion.
