Aerodynamic Dispersion of Respiratory Droplets and Aerosols by Turbulent Airflow
The precautionary measures recommended during the current COVID-19 pandemic do not consider the effect of turbulent airflow. We found the propagation of droplets and aerosols highly affected by this condition. The spread of respiratory droplets by the action of sneezing is characterized by the dynam...
