Abstract [en]

To assess the possibility of this matter, natural ventilation was explained in relation to why individuals would consider using this type of ventilation in enclosed places and what parameters it depends on. Upon understanding those parameters and weighing their importance, several cases were identified to be examined using computational fluid dynamics tools to see the probability of this virus-laden particle to undergo a traveled trajectory between neighboring windows through the four dimensions of space and time. Thus, the case would then confirm if such a matter, if possible, occurs over distances where both indoor and outdoor conditions are simulated. It was also acknowledged that if these viruses happen to undergo such a trajectory, it would be a matter of likelihood to cause another individual to be infected since environmental conditions play a significant role in the natural decay of these airborne viruses.
