    INTRODUCTION

     Cold fogging machines are advanced devices designed to disperse disinfectant solutions in
    a fine mist, effectively covering large areas in hospitals.

     They utilize a low-pressure system to create ultra-fine droplets, ensuring even distribution
    and penetration into hard-to-reach spaces.

     This technology enhances the efficacy of disinfection protocols by reducing surface


    contamination and airborne pathogens, making it essential for maintaining a sterile
    environment in healthcare settings.

    WORKING OF COLD FOGGING
    MACHINE
     Mechanism
     Atomization Process: Cold fogging machines use a fan or pressurized air to create a fine mist (aerosol)
    from liquid disinfectants. This process does not involve heat, thus preserving the chemical properties of
    the solution.
     Droplet Size: The droplets generated are typically between 5 to 50 microns, allowing them to remain
    airborne long enough to settle on surfaces and reach hard-to-access areas.
     Types of Solutions Used
     Common disinfectants include hydrogen peroxide, quaternary ammonium compounds, and sodium
    hypochlorite.
     These solutions are chosen based on their efficacy against a wide range of pathogens and their safety for
    use in healthcare settings.

    CALCULATIONS

     Axial velocity (Va​): 10 m/s.


     Inner diameter (Dhub​): 0.75 cm = 0.0075 m.
     Outer diameter (Dtip​): 5.2 cm = 0.052 m.

     Fan Annular Area = ()


    ≈ 0.00209

     Volume Flow Rate (Q) = . Va


    =0.0209/s
     Solidity of Blades (σ) = 1.0 (for maximum turbulence)
     Blade Chord Length = σ =
    Where:
    Z = number of blades,
    c = chord length of the blades (m),
    ​= mean diameter of the fan (m).

    The mean diameter is the average of the hub and tip diameter
    =
    = 0.02975m
    Let's assume that the chord length is 50% of the mean radius to ensure high solidity and
    significant turbulence. This gives:
    C ≈ 0.02975×0.5 ≈ 0.01488 m
     Number of Blades (Z) =
    Rounding this to the nearest whole number, we choose 6 blades.
     Blade Angle at Mean Radius -The blade angle ββ is influenced by the axial velocity Va​and the
    tangential velocity component Vθ​(which is the velocity in the direction perpendicular to the axial
    flow). To create turbulence, we aim for a blade angle that creates significant deflection and swirl.
    β=atan(Va/​Vθ​​)
    For maximum turbulence, let’s assume that the tangential velocity is about 30% of the axial velocity:
    Vθ≈0.3⋅ Va =0.3⋅10 = 3 m/s
    Now, calculate the blade angle:
    β= atan(0.3)
    β≈16.7
    So, the blade angle at the mean radius is approximately 16.7 degrees. This angle could vary slightly
    across the blade span, but for simplicity, we assume a uniform blade angle.
     Blade Thickness - For enhanced turbulence and structural integrity, the blades should
    be moderately thick near the hub and gradually thinner toward the tip. A thickness-to-chord ratio
    of about 12% to 15% is commonly used in stator designs.
     Blade Shape: Use a NACA 4412 or NACA 0012 airfoil with a thickness-to-chord ratio of 12%
    to 15%.
     Fan Blade Size (chord length): Approximately 0.01488 m (14.88 mm).
     Blade Angle: Approximately 16.7°
    at the mean radius.
    EXPECTED OUTCOME

    •A fully functional autonomous cold fogging machine capable of effective disinfection and
    odor control.
    •Improved energy efficiency and reduced operating costs.
    •Enhanced portability and ease of use.
    •Enhanced disinfection capabilities through the use of nanotechnology.
    •A user-friendly interface for easy operation and monitoring.
    CONCLUSION

     Cold foggers have emerged as a versatile and effective tool for disinfection, deodorization,
    and pest control.
     Their ability to generate a fine mist using cold technology offers numerous advantages,
    including energy efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and improved safety.
     While cold foggers have limitations such as limited penetration and sensitivity to airflow,
    advancements in nozzle design and solution formulations are continually improving their
    performance.
     By addressing these challenges and exploring new applications, cold foggers have the
    potential to become an even more valuable asset in various industries and settings.
