CFD Simulation Dataset for Airborne Pathogen Transmission in Turbulent Channels

This dataset contains results from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations conducted using Ansys to model airborne pathogen transmission in turbulent airflow channels. The simulations focus on the dispersion of pathogen-laden droplets and aerosols, mimicking scenarios such as coughing-induced flows. The data includes the reception statistics of airborne particles, which are used to derive the infection probability. The dataset supports the studygiven below and can be used for statistical characterization and further analysis of airborne pathogen transmission between two people.
