Hospital Operating Room Ventilation Systems

ASHRAE JOURNAL MAY 201814 TECHNICAL FEATUREK ishor Khankari, , is president at AnSight LLC in Ann Arbor, Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis of Hospital Operating Room Ventilation Systems BY KISHOR KHANKARI, , FELLOW ASHRAEThe primary objective of Hospital Operating room (OR) Ventilation Systems is to mini-mize surgical site infection due to airborne contaminants and bacteria and to provide a comfortable environment for surgeons and other staff in the room. The key factor in reducing surgical site infection is to minimize the contamination of the sterile (clean) zone where the surgical procedures are performed.

positive pressure with a total of 20 air changes per hour (ACH) supplied with 4 ACH outside air. The supply air should be unidirectional directed downward with an average discharge velocity of 25 to 35 fpm (0.13 to 0.18 m/s). These specifications for minimum discharge veloci-ties are based on previous CFD studies, which concluded
