Simulated tracer-gas distribution in a multiscale model of the human lung during multiple-breath nitrogene washout

Content

baseline:

• inletFlow (ASCII format data for flow rate at the mouth in m^3/s, sampling frequency 1kHz)
• primary_results (ASCII format data table with four colums: time in seconds, N2 concentration (normalized), empty -1, pleural pressure in Pascal)

compliance modification (local):

• inletFlow (format as in baseline)
• primary_results (format as in basline)
• duct: unstructured VTK mesh data of several scalar quantities (airway dimensino, pressure, N2 concentration, flow velocity) witin the airway network. Sampling frequency 50Hz (separat vtk-file for each timestep). Inspect for instance with the VisIt (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) free visualization software.
• lobule: unstructured VTK mesh data of several scalar quantities (airway dimensino, pressure, N2 concentration, flow velocity) within the trumpet lobules.

compliance modification (regional):

• inletFlow (format as in baseline)
• primary_results (format as in basline)
• duct: (same format as described above)
• lobule: (same format as described above)

size modification (regional):

• inletFlow (format as in baseline)
• primary_results (format as in basline)

resistance modification (local):

• inletFlow (format as in baseline)
• primary_results (format as in basline)

healthy controls (local):

• inletFlow (format as in baseline)
• primary_results (format as in basline)
