Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) Simulations of aerosol deposition in the lungs
(TSFP-9, 2015)In the current study, Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are used to investigate the transport and deposition of inhaled aerosol particles (dp = 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10 μm) in a realistic geometry of the human airways under ...

The effect of flow rate, head position, and inhaler orientation on the airflow and particle deposition in an mri-based mouth-throat geometry
(International Symposium on Turbulence and Shear Flow Phenomena, TSFP10, 2017)The mouth-throat plays a key role in the administration of inhaled medicines. It is an area of intense filtration, where an unacceptably high fraction of the released drug dose is deposited and thus wasted. Due to the ...

Experimental methods for flow and aerosol measurements in human airways and their replicas
(2018)Recent developments in the prediction of local aerosol deposition in human lungs are driven by the fast development of computational simulations. Although such simulations provide results in unbeatable resolution, significant ...
