This normal model was then subjected to virtual removal of the middle turbinate from the left half of the nasal cavity. Navier-Stokes and continuity equations for steady airflow were solved numerically to examine inspiratory nasal airflow. The result of this turbinectomy was compared with the normal case. For a flow rate of 20L/min, the resistance obtained for normal and middle turbinate removal was 0.89 Pa-min/L, and 0.71 Pa-L/min respectively. Around 15.65% of the flow reached olfactory region when the middle turbinates were removed resulting in the increase in average velocity in the region by about 180%. 2012-10-15T09:13:03Z 2012-10-15T09:13:03Z 2012-02-27 Working Paper p. 338-341 978-145771989-9 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6179034 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/21365 en Proceedings of the International Conference on Biomedical Engineering (ICoBE 2012) Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
