Indoor particle dispersion due to hand dryer in public washroom: an in silico study

Abstract: Hand dryer in public washroom has been reported likely to be a reservoir of drug-resistant bacteria. When a hand dryer being used, the high-velocity air jet from the dryer outlet can carry aerosol particles to hand surfaces, the user, and indoor space. This in silico study considered the effect of different airflow speed of hand dryers on the dispersion of particles in different diameters with and without the user. The aim of this study was to apply the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method based on the di… Show more
