Simulation Study on the Mass Transport Based on the Ciliated Dynamic System of the Respiratory Tract
To study the mass transport of mucociliary clearance of the human upper respiratory tract, a two-dimensional mass transport model based on the ciliated movement was established by using the immersed boundary-lattice Boltzmann method (IB-LBM). In this model, different characteristics of the mucus lay...
