It is well known that the airflow is instrumental in the transmission of airborne infectious diseases in indoor environments. The airflow pattern in indoor environment is affected by the ventilation airflow, thermal plume around human bodies, human respiration, human motion and other activities. In this study, the CFD approach was used to simulate airflow field and particle transport in a room to provide exposure assessment for a heated breathing manikin with and without rotational motion. The simulation results indicated that the rotation of the manikin significantly impacts the thermal plume of the body and the associated transport of particulates.
