Abstract
When a person is in a unidirectional airflow and the
contaminant source is wihtin the wake region, high
exposure can occur. This work studied the effects of
freestream velocity and convective heat release rate on
the exposure both experimentally and numerically. The
buoyant forces became important with low air velocities.
The CFD calculations corresponded to the experiments
reasonably well.
