A Simplified Model for Predicting Friction Factors of Laminar Blood Flow in Small-Caliber Vessels
The aim of this study was to provide scientists with a straightforward correlation that can be applied to the prediction of the Fanning friction factor and consequently the pressure drop that arises during blood flow in small-caliber vessels. Due to the small diameter of the conduit, the Reynolds nu...
