Air Pollution with Fine Particles in Closed Parking and Theoretical Studies of the Interaction of Inhaled Particles in Respiratory Tract

Indoor air quality must be considered important in regards to its possible harmful effects on the human body. Premises such as underground garages, covered car parks and other similar structures remain crucial in assessing the level of air pollution. In such an environment, the main sources of pollution are motor vehicles, emissions from the heating-ventilation-air-conditioning systems of the engineering networks of the joint building, and pollution. When visiting such premises, a person inhales the air, which contains fine particulate matter and a variety of gaseous pollutants harmful to health. The aim of this study is to assess indoor air pollution with fine particulate matter of 0.3–10 µm depending on the nature of the source, aerodynamic parameters in relation to the potential location of a person, and the mechanical behavior of inhaled particles with respiratory tissues. In this work, the interaction of a fine particle with an alveolar cell is theoretically studied when the particle enters the lungs through the human respiratory tract. Based on the results of this study, it would be possible to assess the extent of pollution and the movement or accumulation of particles in the respiratory system.
