A highly innovative displacement ventilation system for the ward areas was developed saving 20% in mechanical services costs, reducing energy consumption and reducing the risk of post operative cross infection.

Specific Activities
Bassett developed the concept of the innovative displacement ventilation system and undertook the thermal and energy modelling to prove up it's effectiveness.

Value for Client
Bassett Applied Research undertook energy consumption simulation and CFD analysis to demonstrate the reduction in potential infection from visitors or patients through the use of a displacement ventilation system.
