This paper summarizes the key points of the air conditioning system design for infectious disease hospitals from eight aspects: civil engineering requirements, cold and heat sources of air conditioning system, air conditioning forms, air distribution, ward area differential pressure control, function conversion design, air conditioning and ventilation system purification measures and discharge of air conditioning condensate. This paper mainly presents the methods of protecting medical staff by air distribution design of the air conditioning and effectively controlling the pressure differences between room and area to avoid cross infection in infectious disease hospitals, as well as the method to carry on the function conversion design to cope with the outbreak of the epidemic and save the energy consumption of ordinary air conditioning system operation.
