A ventilation evaluation for final packing process of microelectronics
cleanrooms by using computational fluid dynamics

Abstracts
The purpose of this study is to investigate information on performance of ventilation in high-tech microelectronics
cleanrooms using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). One liquid crystal display (LCD) company was examined
for evaluating the relationship between workplace concentration and ventilation rate efficiency by using CFD
software, Airpak 3.0v. Acetone concentration in cleanroom for final packing process, which is inspected LCD was
40.1 ppm (GSD 1.91) (n = 55) as geometric mean, ranged 7.8~128.7 ppm and weakly correlated with ventilation
rate efficiency (R2 = 0.37, p < 0.01). Resulting from computational fluid dynamics (CFD), acetone concentration
can be reduced 62% when install booth type local exhaust system, the most efficient way among 10 other different
ventilation methods like increasing volume of general ventilation, changing the location of workers, supply or
exhaust diffusers and install downstream type local exhaust system, etc. We found that volitile organic compounds
in cleanroom can be a matter of adverse health effects and the concentration was correlated with ventilation rate
efficiency. The most optimized plan to control the contaminants in solvent cleaning work in cleanroom was booth
type local exhaust system.
