An Experimental Study of Pulsatile Flow in a Compliant Aortic Root Model under Varied Cardiac Outputs
The fluid dynamics of a natural aortic valve are complicated due to the highly pulsatile flow conditions, the compliant wall boundaries, and the sophisticated geometry of the aortic root. In the present study, a pulsatile flow simulator was constructed and utilized to investigate the turbulent chara...
