In this case study, we hear from Andrew Thomas (Birmingham Medical School), a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, who has been utilising BlueBEAR to produce a new Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model of the type of operating theatre used for joint replacement surgery. The work is part of a … Continue reading “A computational fluid dynamic model of an ultra clean air operating theatre”
