Modeling and Simulation of Mucus Flow in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cell Cultures – Part I: Idealized Axisymmetric Swirling Flow
Fig 6
Transient snapshots of the flow field for a single mode UCM model.
Times are selected to capture the formation and evolution of a vortex in the upper right hand side of the domain. Geometric and model parameters used in this simulation are given in Table 3. The imposed driving condition for swirling flow is ω0 = 0.0157 Rad/s.
