Flow Visualization Study of a Novel Respiratory Assist Catheter
Budilarto S et al. - In the primary flow, the tangential velocity exhibited boundary layers of less than ½ mm adjacent to the fiber bundle and vessel wall. The estimated shear stress associated with the Taylor vortices was approximately 11 dyne/cm2 at 7000 rpm and was over 10 times smaller than the shear stress in the primary flow boundary layers.
