Impact of side-hole geometry on the performance of hemodialysis catheter tips: a computational fluid dynamics assessment

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: David G. Owen and colleagues from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom have published the research work: Impact of side-hole geometry on the performance of hemodialysis catheter tips: A computational fluid dynamics assessment, in the Journal: PLOS ONE of 16/07/2020
  • what: This study investigates the impact of changing the shape size and number of side-holes on a simple symmetric tip catheter by evaluating the velocity shear stress and shear rate of inflowing blood. Contrary to previous studies which used a velocity weighted average , in this . . .
