FDA’s Nozzle Numerical Simulation Challenge: Non-Newtonian Fluid Effects and Blood Damage
Figure 9
Flux-weighted NIH average values () using the different viscosity models, together with the analytical lower limit.
Thick curved lines correspond to the values obtained from computing the flow-weighted averages over radial cuts along the main axis using the NIH evolution field included as a PDE. Thin dashed lines represent the averaged values at outflow given in Eqs. (22), obtained from a post-processing analysis of the velocity field.
