Numerical simulation of air flow in the human nasal cavity.
A highly automated method was used to construct numerical models of six 3-D human right nasal cavities from computed tomography data. Steady state airflow simulations were performed with computational fluid dynamics software for quiet breath on the six models. The method is validated with particle simulations. Simulation results from each of the six studies are compared.
