Objective: To evaluate the use of an adjustable venturi device with standard wall oxygen supply to deliver nasal high flow oxygen. Design: We set up a circuit using a standard 15 L/ min oxygen rotameter connected to a wall outlet, 2 m standard oxygen tubing, an adjustable venturi device, humidification chamber and nasal high flow circuit and cannulae. Delivered FiO2 and total gas flow rates wer...

The objectives in this thesis are to present a model of a variable venturi in an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system located in a heavy duty diesel engine. A new legislation called EURO 4 will come into force in 2005 which affects truck development and it will require an On-Board Diagnostic system in the truck. If model based diagnostic systems are to be used, one of the advantages is that t...

INTRODUCTION In immunocompromised patients, acute respiratory failure (ARF) is associated with high mortality, particularly when invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) is required. In patients with severe hypoxemia, high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) therapy has been used as an alternative to delivery of oxygen via a Venturi mask. Our objective in the present study was to compare HFNO and Venturi mas...

Accurate multiphase flowrate measurement is challenging but vital in the energy industry to monitor production process. Machine learning has recently emerged as a promising method for estimating flowrates based on different conventional flow meters. In this paper, we propose Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) model and Temporal (TCN) estimate volumetric liquid of o...
