Numerical Simulation of Microenvironment Inside Mobile Operating Room

Article Preview

Abstract:

The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to design the position of the inlet and outlet of the air conditioning and analyzing the air flow field and temperature distribution inside the operating room .The result showed the purification air conditioning of the mobile operating room can make air flow along only single direction with effectively avoiding the contamination gathering in the surgical area. It also can improve air cleanness of surgical area and fight against the infection of the patient wound. In the surgical area, the temperature is distributed around 23°C with perfect temperature distribution without obviously temperature gradient.
