A study of air movement and aerosol particle distribution and migration in a ventilated two-zone chamber is presented. The comparisons of average particle concentration decay between numerical results and measured data are generally satisfactory and acceptable. It can be concluded that the particle distribution and migration are mainly influenced by the airflow pattern and ventilation rates.
