A steady flow circular model of 3,5,10 mm is used. The flow field is numerically calculated using Fluid Dynamics International Evanston (FIDAP). Basing from the results, it is concluded that CD provides reliable velocities in large regurgitant orifices, however, it should be used in caution in smaller orifices where significant underestimation should be expected. | Rights: | © ASME | Type: | Conference Papers | Affiliation: | University of Alabama at Birmingham |
