METHODS: This in‐silico modeling study of HVNI, LFO2, and tidal breathing presents ANSYS Fluent Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations that evaluate the effect of Type I surgical mask use over patient face on particle/droplet behavior. The in-silico model included a room simulation to evaluate the fluid dynamic behavior of the effect of a surgical mask on particles which may be generated in the airway while receiving HVNI therapy. Simulations were performed on control cases modeling a patient on HVNI (40L•min -1 ), Low Flow Oxygen (LFO2) therapy (6L•min -1 via Nasal Cannula), and simulated breathing (tidal breathing, no therapy) without a surgical mask.	./cache/cord-289521-zun6tp2o.txt	./txt/cord-289521-zun6tp2o.txt
