It’s also within the realm of what an undergraduate student in Physics, Chemistry, or Engineering would encounter alongContinue reading “COVID Aerosol Physics”
Beating COVID With Better Ventilation
In less than 19 minutes, this presentation seeks to answer the question … How can Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) address the problem of SARS CoV-2? Easy. Physics describes and Engineering solves the problems that IAQ experts have known for decades. IAQ transcends this pandemic and can deliver major gains for Public Health if we willContinue reading “Beating COVID With Better Ventilation”
Poor Ventilation in Schools
