Numerical Simulation for Evaluating the Effects of Cooking-Generated Particulate Matters on Human Health

Yan Liu, Huang Xuefeng, Wen ZhengCheng, Jiangrong Xu

Abstract


Exposure to particles emitted by cooking activities is regarded as a major pollutant source in residential microenvironments. To assess the contribution of cooking activities to indoor particle concentrations, the relationship between ventilation methods and particle concentration in typical indoor environment was examined numerically by CFD software. Results show that Ventilation effectiveness can more or less successfully be used as an indicator for evaluating air quality and human exposure indoor.
