Experimental Verification of the Particle Blocking Feature of Nasal Hair
Although it is well known that nasal hair keeps particles from entering our body, its quantitative evaluation has not been done. In this study, the particle blocking efficiency by nasal hair was studied both experimentally and numerically. The results of laboratory experiments performed with the suc...
