Numerical Simulation of Airway Dimension Effects on Airflow Patterns and Odorant Deposition Patterns in the Rat Nasal Cavity

The sense of smell is largely dependent on the airflow and odorant transport in the nasal cavity, which in turn depends on the anatomical structure of the nose. In order to evaluate the effect of airway dimension on rat nasal airflow patterns and odorant deposition patterns, we constructed two 3-dim...
