It is well known that SARS–CoV–2, can be transmitted through airborne diffusion of saliva droplets which travels into atmospheric air through a thermo-fluid dynamic interaction with it. In order to limit SARS-CoV-2 spread, social distancing is crucial. However, in this context is really important to emphasize that available knowledge is largely inadequate to make predictions on the airborne spreading of infectious droplets emitted during a cough and/or sneezing. The main aim of our research activity is to provide a contribution to thermo-fluid dyamic modeling of saliva droplets diffusion produced by coughing. In particular in this paper, several efforts were devoted to the analysis of impact of saliva chemical composition on the their spreading in space.

Abstract
It is well known that SARS–CoV–2, can be transmitted through airborne diffusion of saliva droplets which travels into atmospheric air through a thermo-fluid dynamic interaction with it. In order to limit SARS-CoV-2 spread, social distancing is crucial. However, in this context is really important to emphasize that available knowledge is largely inadequate to make predictions on the airborne spreading of infectious droplets emitted during a cough and/or sneezing. The main aim of our research activity is to provide a contribution to thermo-fluid dyamic modeling of saliva droplets diffusion produced by coughing. In particular in this paper, several efforts were devoted to the analysis of impact of saliva chemical composition on the their spreading in space.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
