Numerical simulations of airflow in the human pharynx of OSAHS patients
Abstract: Computational Fluid Dynamic simulations are performed in real patient individual pharynx geometries of an Obstructive Sleep Apnea patient. The Navier-Stokes equations as well as the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations and k − ∊ and k −ω turbulence models are used. The velocity profil...
