In a recent article published in the journal Physics of Fluids, researchers explored the influence of perimeter leakage on the effectiveness of face masks.
Background
According to recent investigations, the efficiency of face masks is determined not just by the mask’s material but also by how well they fit on the wearer’s face. The quantity of filtered flow and perimeter leakage depends on the mask fit and porosity. Lower porosity typically links with improved filtering. However, it also leads to more perimeter leakage.
