The governing equations are solved analytically using the traditional Laplace transform method together with Mellin’s inversion formula. The evolution of velocity profiles and pressure gradient for starting and pulsatile flow with slip boundary conditions are analyzed. New simplified expressions and perspectives on velocity and pressure gradient for no-slip and slip flows are obtained from the analytical results. New scalings in starting and pulsatile flows are proposed for pipe flows with no-slip and slip boundary conditions using non- dimensional numbers. Special attention is paid to the effect of slip factor and pulsatile flow frequency on the time-dependent skin-friction factor. Finally, by using the starting and pulsating flow results, analytical expressions of velocity and pressure for arbitrary inflow are obtained by approximating the arbitrary volume flow-rate by a Fourier series Keywords: Micropipe; Starting flow; Pulsatile flow; Womersley number.

School: School of Materials Science and Engineering Faculty: Science Title: CFD modelling of air flow and fine powder deposition in the respiratory tract Abstract This project was to investigate and observe characteristics of micro particles suspended in the ambient air or pharmaceutical aerosols with respect to the mechanisms of deposition in human airways under different inspiratory conditions. Such determination includes pattern observations of inspiratory flow-field of the air, particle trajectory during inspiratory conditions and particle deposition. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) was employed to simulate above problems, aiming to observe flow-field of the inspiratory air and characteristic of flow turbulence in the respiratory tract as well as particle behaviour in the respiratory tract regarding to the particle deposition. In order to do so, three different airway models were employed for the simulations: two realistic airway models introduced by Kitaoka and Weibel airways model. The motion of micro-sized particles between 1~20 µm were simulated under the steady state two inlet- inspiratory conditions – inhalation condition (60 L/min) and breathing condition (18 L/min); to evaluate deposition efficiency. Inertial impaction was dominantly caused high density deposition of particles in upper tracheobronchial region, particularly in regions where daughter airways bifurcate.

Abstract-A two-dimensional numerical model was developed to determine the effect of the non-New- tonian behavior of blood on a pulsatile flow at the aortic bifurcation. The blood rheology was described by a weak-form Casson equation. The successive-over-relaxation (SOR) method was used to solve both the vorticity and Poisson equations numerically. It was disclosed that the non-Newtonian property of blood did not drastically change the flow patterns, but caused an appreciable increase in the shear stresses and a slightly higher resistance to both flow separations and the phase shifts between flow layers.

INTRODUCTION The desire to understand the ¯ow of blood through the cardiovascular system and prosthetic devices has stimulated a lot of research activity in hemodynamics. Such studies are of particular importance because there is indirect evidence that the cause and the developments of many car- diovascular diseases are, to a great extent, related to the characteristics of blood ¯ow, such as the high values of the shear stress at the wall or its variation [1±4]. The study of the rheological properties of blood can allow a better understanding of blood circulation. The latter depends on numerous factors such as the driving force of the heart, the shape, as well as mechanical and physiological behaviour of the vascular walls [1,5±8].

  • Basic Field Equations
    APPEND IX Basic Field Equations A.I Introduction In this appendix we list the basic equations of mechani cs. We present these equations in order to exhibit the mathematical expressions of the basic laws of physics (conservation of mass, momentum, and energy) and to show the notations used in this book. How easily the material presented here will be assimilated depends on the background of the reader. For some, a quick glance will be sufficient. For others, some hard study and further reading will be necessary. The author' s book, A First Course in Continuum M echanics (Fung, 1977), is one of the shortest and most con venient references for this purpose. Other larger treati ses are listed at the end of this appendix. The mechanical properties of materials are expressed in constitutive equations. The constitutive equations of biological materials are discussed in the author's book, Biomechanics: Mechanical Properties ofLiving Tissues (Fung, 1981). They are often quoted below without discussion. A.2 Conservation of Mass and Momentum Let us consider the motion of a solid or a fluid. Let XI> X2 'X 3 or X, y, z be rectangular Cartesian coordinates . Let the velocity components along the X-, y-, z-axis directions be denoted by VI'V2' V3 or u, v, IV, respectively.

  • Effect of Prandtl Number on Internal Convective Heat Transfer in Laminar Single-Phase Pulsating Flows
    Effect of Prandtl number on internal convective heat transfer in laminar single-phase pulsating flows Sushant Kumar 1, Balkrishna Mehta 2, Sameer Khandekar 2a 1Birla Institute of Technology & Science Pilani – Goa Campus, Goa, India 2Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, Kanpur, India (aCorresponding author, email: [email protected]) Abstract. In this paper, heat transfer during simultaneously developing single- phase laminar flow inside a pipe has been investigated numerically. A two di- mensional axisymmetric model of a circular mini-channel is used, with a con- stant wall temperature boundary condition. In the present simulations, flow Reynolds number ( Re ) and amplitude ratio ( A) are kept constant to 200 and 0.2, respectively. The variable quantities are imposed pulsating frequency ( f) or non- dimensional frequency (Womersley number, Wo ) and Prandtl number ( Pr ). Study is conducted for three different imposed flow frequencies of 5 Hz, 15 Hz and 25 Hz respectively while Prandtl number values are varied from 2.43 to 3404. These flow parameters can be grouped together to form different time scales which are important to explain the heat transfer behavior in laminar sin- gle-phase pulsating flow. It is observed that for the range of frequency (f) and Prandtl number ( Pr ) used in present work, change in heat transfer is marginal which is of no practical significance. Enhancement of heat transfer coefficient due to such periodic pulsatile internal flows, over and above the non-pulsatile regular flow conditions, is questionable, and at best, rather limited. 1 Introduction The occurrence of single-phase pulsating flow can be encountered in many engi- neering systems, such as bio-fluidic devices, cooling systems for miniaturized elec- tronic circuits, reciprocating pumps, etc.
