Work description

Project Title: CFD analysis on cleft patientsDetailed Project Description: The aim of this study is to evaluate changes in airflow characteristics before and after septoplasty in unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) patients using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models. The study will use pre- and postoperative computed tomography (CT) data of patients with a deviated nasal septum who have undergone septoplasty. CFD analysis of nasal airflow will be performed to examine changes in velocity, pressure, volume, nasal resistance, and wall shear stress of the nasal domain before and after surgery. The study aims to evaluate shear stress and pressure drop at various locations and compare pre- and post-operative conditions. Additionally, changes in nasal resistance and their statistical relevance will be assessed. These values will help demonstrate significant changes in flow dynamics post-surgery, indicating a more uniform airflow pattern and stabilization of the nasal mucosa.Outcomes of the Project: • In-depth understanding of flow dynamics in various regions of nasal cavity.• Extensive exploration of numerical simulation methods in ANSYS Fluent. Developing UDF for flow profile.• Developing key numerical modelling skills required for system modelling. Analyzing flow analysis results using ANSYS Fluent.Expected Results: Shear Stress, Velocity and pressure profile in different regions of nasal cavity
