MeSH headings : Air; Bronchi / physiology; Computer Simulation; Humans; Lung / physiology; Models, Biological; Particle Size; Respiratory Mechanics; Trachea / physiology
TL;DR:
The present study revealed that turbulent air-particle flow may propagate to G5 for the assumed inhalation flow rate, and geometry and upstream effects are more pronounced for micron particle deposition than for nanoparticle deposition.
