Pressure distribution and flow dynamics in a nasal airway using a scale resolving simulation

James Van Strien, Kendra Shrestha, Sargon Gabriel +4

Airflow through the nasal cavity exhibits a wide variety of fluid dynamicsbehaviour due to the intricacy of the nasal geometry. The flow is naturallyunsteady and perhaps turbulent,…
