ecoKAKU: Simulation of airborne pathogens
ecoKAKU leveraged Cradle CFD and 3D laser scanners to study airborne pathogens creating a COVID-19-safe environment during the pandemic.
ecoKAKU fights COVID-19 with a good indoor environment through Smart CFD simulations.
St. Mary’s Cathedral in Tokyo plays a central role in the Catholic faith in Japan. In the pandemic, understanding how the airflow moves such droplets in the cathedral during mass with people inside is vital. Modern Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools can analyse this but require a detailed 3D model of the building, and as the building was constructed in 1964, no such data exists.
The Droplet Visualisation System by ecoKaku can demystify airborne droplets’ movement and does not require detailed modelling in a CAD tool. This solution leverages the Leica 3D laser scanners and Cradle CFD from Hexagon to digitally transform the space, enabling detailed analysis of how the droplets move within the built environment.
