Optimization of airflow regimes, energy efficiency and air quality in surgical operation theatres

The present paper addresses and fosters the factors that  affect airflow movement and energy efficiencies in the surgical operating theatres. The present work puts forward  analyses for major factors con tributing to failure to achieve and attain the optimum Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), and the methods suggested to solve such problem. Appropriate architectural and mechanical engineering recommendations to achieve the optimum hygienic operating theatre are set out in the paper. The present work is also devoted to assess through way of comparisons of several airside HVAC designs, efficient operating theatres air conditioning designs. The influence of the airside HVAC design on the operating theatre environment  is  outlined in terms of flow regimes and age of contamination.
