A robust immersed boundary method for flow in complex geometries : study of aerosol deposition in the human extrathoracic airways

2012-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The flow and the transport of particles in the human respiratory system dictate the effectiveness of therapeutic aerosols used in inhaled drug delivery. The aerosol particles are generally inhaled through the mouth, passing by the throat before reaching the targeted areas in the lungs. Therefore, knowledge of the particle deposition in the mouth-throat region is critical in the design of effective inhalation devic...
