Computational fluid dynamic models as tools to predict aerosol distribution in tracheobronchial airways

Abstract: Aerosol and pollutants, in form of particulates 5–8 μm in main size face every day our respiratory system as natural suspension in air or forced to be inhaled as a coadjutant in a medical therapy for respiratory diseases. This inhalation happens in children to elderly, women and men, healthy or sick and disable people. In this paper we analyzed the inhalation of aerosol in conditions assimilable to the thermal therapy. We use a computational fluid dynamic 3D model to compute and visualize the trajectories of a… Show more

“…This numerical approach has provided complete-airway deposition modeling of the human respiratory system by solving spatially and temporally complex fluid-particulate dynamics formulations [29][30][31]. CFPD has become a key component for understanding the next-generation of respiratory drug delivery [32][33][34][35][36]; diagnosing obstructive lung diseases [37]; studying exhaled particles during respiratory events [38] and airborne transmission of infectious disease [39][40][41][42][43], including COVID-19 [44][45][46][47] and other forms of bioaerosol transmission [48,49], conducting risk assessment for toxic air pollutants [50,51], and collecting exhaled aerosols and saliva microdroplets within EBC devices with different geometries [52,53].…”
