Airflow visualization study planning template
Capture the study conditions before selecting fog equipment or writing the protocol. The downloadable CSV can be used as a project intake sheet, URS input or supplier-question matrix.
1. Study identity
- Facility, room and system
- Protocol owner and approvers
- Governing procedure or standard
- Study objective and decision supported
- Required completion date
2. Operating condition
- As-built, at-rest or operational state
- Personnel count and positions
- Equipment operating modes
- Doors, transfers and interventions
- Pressure relationships
3. Visualization requirement
- Areas and airflow interactions to observe
- Required fog travel and duration
- Working-fluid restrictions
- Condensation and residue limits
- Hose, wand or enclosure entry path
4. Recording plan
- Camera positions and field of view
- Lighting and background contrast
- Time synchronization
- Required labels and narration
- Raw and edited file retention
5. Acceptance evidence
- Expected airflow direction
- Prohibited turbulence or ingress
- Intervention-specific observations
- Deviation handling
- Reviewer and approval sequence
6. Equipment inputs
- Room/enclosure volume
- Delivery distance and resistance
- Required output and controllability
- Electrical, LN₂ or water constraints
- Cleaning and transport requirements
Do not start with “which fogger is best?”
The stronger question is: what must be made visible, under what resistance and operating condition, for how long, with what recording quality and what restrictions? A compact ultrasonic system, higher-output ultrasonic platform and LN₂ system can each be appropriate under different constraints.
For isolators, RABS and other positive-pressure enclosures, define the delivery path and resistance. Free-air fan flow alone may not predict usable fog delivery.
