Abstract: Experiments were conducted in a steady flow test apparatus with an axisymmetric aortic shaped test chamber using hot-wire anemometry to obtain local momentum transfer and turbulence data in the ...

Abstract: An approximate method for predicting the forced convection heat transfer for flow between parallel plates having embedded, discrete heat sources on one or both sides is presented. The spacing ...

Abstract: An experimental investigation was conducted to determine the magnitude of shear stresses and areas of stasis of several types of prosthetic occluder heart valves. These experiments were performed ...

Abstract: Given the tolerance of the right heart circulation to mild regurgitation and gradient, we study the potential of using motionless devices to regulate the pulmonary circulation. In addition, we ...
