Abstract:
An ultraviolet (UV) device increases turbulent air flow in a duct, decreasing air flow velocity in the vicinity of the UV device, increasing exposure time of contaminants to UV light, and improving kill rates for contaminants. An arrangement of UV light sources increases UV intensity along the axis of fluid flow.
