Application of heated-film velocity and shear probes to hemodynamic studies.

چکیده
A constant-temperature heated-film anemometer system has been adapted for the detailed study of in-vivo aortic velocity fields. Two types of sensing probes were developed: a velocity probe and a velocity-gradient or fluid shear stress probe. These probes were evaluated for steady and pulsatile flow in rigid circular tubes using both a glycerin-water mixture and blood. Measurements using both devices agreed closely with the values predicted by well established theory. Moreover, the integrated velocity profiles that were measured correlated well with the simultaneously recorded flow values using orifice meter and electromagnetic flowmeter techniques. In-vivo studies were made along the thoracic aortas of anesthetized dogs and pigs. Velocity measurements along the aorta indicated that the velocity profiles are blunt. The flowpulse forms obtained by the heated-film technique in vivo were also similar in magnitude and contour to those obtained simultaneously from an electromagnetic flowmeter. Fully developed turbulent flow was not observed; however, occasional "eddy" turbulence occurred in the aortic arch of dogs weighing less than 30 kg. Preliminary measurements indicate that peak wall-shear stresses reach values that are approximately one-third that of the endothelial yield stress. ADDITIONAL

Analysis of intrinsic irreversibility and heat transfer in a buoyancy-driven changeable viscosity liquid along an incline heated wall with convective cooling taking into consideration the heated isothermal and isoflux wall is investigated. By Newton’s law of cooling, we assumed the free surface exchange heat with environment and fluid viscosity is exponentially dependent on temperature. Appropr...
متن کاملGravity- and Shear-driven Thin Films Flow on Heated Microstructured Walls
A model describing the behaviour of the gravityand shear-driven liquid films on heated microstructured walls is developed. The hydrodynamic stability of the film flow is investigated using the long-wave theory. It is shown that the longitudinal grooves stabilize the film flow both when the wall is completely or only partially covered by the film. The influence of the thermocapillarity on the fi...

متن کاملValidation and application of empirical shear wave velocity models based on standard penetration test
Shear wave velocity is a basic engineering tool required to define dynamic properties of soils. In many instances it may be preferable to determine Vs indirectly by common in-situ tests, such as the Standard Penetration Test. Many empirical correlations based on the Standard Penetration Test are broadly classified as regression techniques. However, no rigorous procedure has been published for c...
