Summary

This paper examines the characteristics of airflow distribution within a clean room due to changes in the production process. This study was conducted for a class-100 clean room at a disk-drive manufacturing firm. The airflow distribution in the clean room was simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. The results showed that furniture such as a workbench and a laminar flow hood have a great impact on the airflow pattern in the clean room. The predicted airflow results offered substantial benefits in the design and development of better furniture layout.
