Spatial discretisation of geometrically complex computational domains often entails unstructured meshes of general topology for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Mesh skewness is then typically encountered causing severe deterioration of the formal order of accuracy of the discretisation, or boundedness of the solution, or both. Particularly methods inherently relying on the accurate and boun...

Introduction Water is the most abundant constituent of the human body. Human body has 60-70 % of weight due to its water content 1 . Water occupies two main fluid compartments 1. Intracellular fluid (ICF)about two third by volume, contained in cells 2. Extracellular fluid (ECF)-about one third by volume, consist of two major subdivisions  Plasma – the fluid portion of the blood  Interstitial ...

There is clinical and experimental evidence that lack of thyroid hormones may affect the composition and structure of the interstitium. This can influence the relationship between volume and pressure during changes in hydration. Hypothyrosis was induced in rats by thyroidectomy 8 wk before the experiments. Overhydration was induced by infusion of acetated Ringer, 5, 10, and 20% of the body weig...

Fluid therapy is an important component of resuscitation and treatment of critically ill equine patients. However, the decision of which fluid type to use in certain critical situations is somewhat controversial. This article focuses on the potential benefits of performing small-volume resuscitation in critically ill horses by combining hypertonic saline with a colloid (e.g., hetastarch).

  In this numerical study the the heat transfer and laminar nanofluid flow in the three-dimensional microchannels with triangular cross-section is simulated. For increase the heat transfer from the walls of the channel, semiattached & offset mid- truncated rib,s Placed in the canal, and the tooth geometry and the impact is studied. In this study, the water is base fluid, and the influence of th...

objective(s): one applications of nanotechnology is in the area of medicine which is called nanomedicine. primary instruments in nanomedicine can help us to detect diseases and used for drug delivery to inaccessible areas of human tissues. an important issue in simulating the motion of nanoparticles is modeling blood flow as a newtonian or non-newtonian fluid. sometimes blood flow is simulated ...

using of nanofluids and ducts with corrugated walls are both supposed to enhance heat transfer, by increasing the heat transfer fluid conductivity and the heat transfer area respectively. use of a diverging duct with a jet at inlet section may further increase heat transfer by creating recirculation zones inside the duct. in this work two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow of a nanofluid e...

Resuscitation with intravenous fluid can restore intravascular volume and improve stroke volume. However, in unstable patients, approximately 50% of fluid boluses fail to improve cardiac output as intended. Increasing evidence suggests that excess fluid may worsen patient outcomes. Clinical examination and vital signs are unreliable predictors of the response to a fluid challenge. We review the...

In this paper conjugated heat transfer in thermal entrance region through the sinusoidal wavy channel has been investigated. The fluid flow is assumed to be laminar, steady state, incompressible, and hydrodynamically fully developed. A constant heat flux is assumed to be applied on the outer edge of the channel wall. In this study the governing equations including continuity, momentum and energ...
