Numerical simulation of upper airway heat transfer in children with mandibular retrognathia during inspiratory process

IntroductionThe human upper airway regulates temperature, but its heating capacity remains unclear when the ambient temperature is low and the airway structure is abnormal. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the heat transfer characteristics of the upper airway in patients with man...
