Description
Summary:The pandemic condition due to the COVID-19 virus attack has affected all areas of life throughout the earth. Post-pandemic policies and new behaviors are one of the important efforts in getting life back to normal. The pandemic has triggered many technological innovations to be carried out as further mitigation and prevention efforts. In the shipping sector, the impact of shipping restrictions and the number of passengers is detrimental due to a decrease in productivity that affects the shipping and port business. Air exchange patterns and room design are important things to be conditioned to reduce the potential for virus exposure. This article presents an investigation of computational fluid dynamics in the accommodation space of the XYZ passenger ship and simulations of potential exposures in several scenarios of ventilation conditions. By simulating 12 models of ventilation conditions, two conditions of the ships being stationary and moving, and the influence of wind from outside. Layout redesign can be applied effectively in open ventilation conditions and has less exposed bench results compared to existing conditions with an effective percentage of 0.75% - 2.3%
