SARS-COV-19 is a serious respiratory infection created by a devastating coronavirus family (2019-nCoV) that has become the first global epidemic of the last one hundred years. It is a highly transmissible virus transmitted by inhalation or contact with the droplet core produced by infected people when they sneeze, cough, and speak. SARS-COV-2 transmission in the air is possible even in a confined space near the infected person. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using a shield or mask as a barrier to a patient’s face against the spread of virus particles. For the present simulation, the discrete phase model (DPM) is used; Because this model allows us to study the particle’s mass discretely in a fluid space with the continuous phase. Due to the choice of this model, the virus particles secreted from the patient’s mouth are considered a discrete phase, and the open airflow in the computational area is considered a continuous phase. The present study uses fluent 2019R3 software to simulate the virus transmission to model the transient flows numerically. The analysis found that the masks or shields can be an effective method of protecting the participants of a conversation in the presence of an infected person.
