Add to ORKGOperating room ventilation systems are used to keep the wound area of a patient free from airborne bacteria. Surgical lighting is one of the major disturbances in operating room ventilation systems. This paper describes results from a series of measurements that aim to qualify and quantify the influence of the shape of an operating lamp on the disturbance of the air flow around the lamp. Visualization and particle concentration measurements in combination with a fixed particle source are used to study the upward transport mechanism of particles underneath an operating lamp. Air velocity measurements are used to determine to quantify the size of the wake underneath the lamp. Several different shapes are used in this investigation. The result...
