Effect of Electrostatic Charge on the Deposition of Monodisperse Uniformly Charged Particles in Idealized Extrathoracic Airway of an Adult, Child and Infant
DownloadFall 2014
An in vitro study was performed on the effect of electrostatic charge on the deposition of monodisperse uniformly charged particles in the extrathoracic airway. An atomizer was designed and prototyped to generate particles using controlled Plateau-Rayleigh breakup, and charge via induction....

The inertial filtration properties of neonatal infant nasal airways are the focus of this thesis. Nasal replicas based on computed tomography (CT) scan images of seven infants between the ages of 5 and 79 days were created using three-dimensional printing. Deposition of inertial sized aerosol...
