Project
Streamlines for TAV
Streamline visualization of blood flow through tricuspid aortic valve showing the formation of vortices in the aortic sinus.
1 Challenge
Visualizing the streamlines through a trileaflet aortic valve to understand flow patterns.
2 CFD Approach
Instantaneous streamlines colored with velocity magnitude contours were computed for the trileaflet aortic valve.
3 Results
The valve jet preserves its direction and does not impinge on the aortic wall.
4 Engineering Conclusion
TAV shows smooth flow patterns with minimal wall shear stress.
