Abstract

Some results on the numerical simulation of blood flow in phantoms for the study of vascular stenoses and aneurysms are presented in this paper. A commercially available CFD solver "FLUENT" is employed in the numerical simulations to compare with the PC-MRI results. Comparisons of PC-MRI and FLUENT output data show qualitative agreement in streamline patterns and good quantitative agreement for pressure drop across the stenosis and aneurysm.
