Biological Agent Neutralization/Computational Modeling Studies

Abstract

This research was a collaborative effort between experimental program at Auburn University and a computational modeling study at Pennsylvania State University. Determinations were made of the inactivation of aerosolized Bacillus Anthracis (Ba) single spores exposed to temperatures from 165 C to 275 C for times between 25ms and 100ms. The data was used to anchor computational fluid dynamics (CFD) flow modeling of heat transfer into the areosolized Ba spores.
