CFD in medical technology

In medical technology, flow processes are often decisive: blood, NaCl solutions, disinfectants, air and oxygen are typical fluids. On the one hand, these fluids flow in the human body, on the other hand through technical apparatus such as pumps, artificial heart valves, hose lines, respirators, nebulizers, inhalers, dialyzers, etc. Active substances are dissolved and should be placed in a targeted manner, disinfectants must be used safely yet sparingly, air must be purified, oxygen must be supplied.

On the one hand, (…)
