Aeolian anti-viral ultra-violet system for fluidic purification

Abstract

A fluid purification system for purifying a fluid, such as air, within a fluid flow system, such as a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system. The fluid purification system has a housing with a specular interior surface. An aerodynamic ultra-violet light module is retained by a framework within the housing to be surrounded by the specular interior surface. The light module has an aerodynamic intake nose cone adjacent to the first end of the housing and an aerodynamic exhaust tail cone adjacent to the second end of the housing. The nose and tail cones are eye-shaped, taper distally, and cooperate to retain a plurality of ultra-violet bulbs in an eye-shaped array that communicates longitudinally within the housing. The housing can be rectangular in cross section with upper and lower walls and opposed sidewalls. Each wall can have a concave inwardly-facing surface operative to focus ultra-violet light within the housing.
