Enhancing respiratory comfort with fan respirators: computational analysis of carbon dioxide reduction, temperature regulation, and humidity control [PDF]
, 2023 Respirators provide protection from inhalation exposure to dangerous substances, such as chemicals and infectious particles, including SARS-Covid-laden droplets and aerosols. However, they are prone to exposure to stale air as the masks creat a microclimate influenced by the exhaled air.
