Summary

Describes the use of a computational fluid dynamics code to simulate the air currents and contaminant decay inside a small-scale model room with forced ventilation through a simple supply and return. Validates the numerical results with flow visualisation experiments and local clearance rate measurements by laser extinction. Comparison shows excellent agreement on the inlet side of the room and fair agreement on the outlet side.
