Abstract
The present work fosters experimental measurements and mathematical modelling techniques to primarily determine the thermal and the relative humidity characteristics in the air-conditioned surgical operating theatre. The present work also demonstrates the effect of the various designs of surgical operating theatres and operational parameters on the flow pattern and temperatures characteristics. The present work is a part of a more comprehensive investigation of the more important factors affecting the air environments in surgical operating theatre. Measured and predicted temperatures and relative humidity profiles are shown to be in good agreement. The present paper introduces several recommendations regarding the optimum design requirements of operating theatres to provide hygiene and comfort environment.
