have been on a plane in this past year?
share that experience
people every year.
akik szintén repülőre ülnek.
in all these metal tubes
ezekbe a fémcsövekbe,
témával foglalkozni,
outbreak last year.
az Ebola-járvány kitöréséről.
through these more range-limited,
a look at some of the numbers,
vetünk egy pillantást a számokra,
to go on the plane
repülővel utazik,
to 17 other people.
fertőzött meg.
other guy with SARS,
SARS vírussal,
of a great superpower.
szupererő alatt.
what we also find
arra is rájöhetünk,
to pre-screen for these diseases.
ezeket a betegségeket kiszűrni.
goes on a plane,
be in this latency period
have the disease
spread the disease
from the top of the cabin
befelé a levegő,
as you see in blue.
kék színnel jelölve.
through these very efficient filters
szűrőkön keresztül távozik,
of pathogens near the outlets.
mixing airflow pattern.
around multiple times
to go out through the filter.
keresztül távozni.
is a pretty serious problem.
komoly probléma.
to go out and buy a plane,
menjek és vegyek egy repülőt,
with computational fluid dynamics,
folyadékdinamika segítségével
is create these simulations
in and taking readings in the plane.
és egy repülőben méricskélnénk.
is you would start out
in technical papers around the Internet.
ebbe a 3D-modellező szoftverbe,
into this 3D-modeling software,
that I just built into these tiny pieces,
apró darabokra,
the computer can better understand it.
hogy a számítógép jobban megértse.
the air goes in and out of the cabin,
hogy hol megy be a levegő, és hol jön ki,
the computer calculates the simulation.
amíg a gép elvégezte a szimulációt.
with the conventional cabin is this:
azt kapjuk,
right into people's faces.
those two passengers
hogy az a két utas,
at that from the side,
spreading across the length of the cabin.
az utastér egész hosszában ott vannak.
"This is no good."
"Ez nem jó."
more than 32 different simulations
futtattam még le,
with this solution right here.
Global Inlet Director.
hogy Globális Beömlésvezérlő.
pathogen transmission
by about 190 percent.
190%-kal növelhetjük.
of composite material
that are already in the plane.
a beszerelése,
of screws in there and you're good to go.
és máris kész.
are absolutely amazing.
swirling airflow patterns,
here is sneezing again,
most ismét tüsszent,
to effectively push that down
push those pathogens down.
nyomható a kórokozó.
at the same scenario
passenger sneezes,
that straight down into the outlet
a kivezetőhöz,
to infect any other people.
másokat megfertőzni.
sitting next to the middle guy
no pathogens at all.
if the middle passenger sneezes,
tüsszentésekor működik jól,
passenger sneezes
this mean for the world?
into real life,
a való életben,
that I built over here,
airflow patterns coming down,
actually cost the world
could actually cost the world
költsége világszinten
to take an airplane out of service
egy egész repülőt
and several million dollars
és sok millió dollárt rákölteni,
something essentially overnight
alatt beépíteni valamit,
this through to certification,
eljáráson,
regulatory approvals processes.
folyamatokon kell végigvinni.
that sometimes the best solutions
hogy néha a legjobb megoldások
wouldn't have supported it.
nem volt meg hozzá.
of you today is: why wait?
miért várunk?
