“…An existing computational model of the nasal cavity is used, and for brevity the details of its model construction and verification can be found in Inthavong, Wen, Tian, and Tu (2008) and Inthavong, Wen, Tu, and Tian (2009). In earlier studies by the authors (Inthavong, 2006) among others in the literature (Kleinstreuer & Zhang, 2003;Li, Kleinstreuer, & Zhang, 2007;Straatsma, Van Houwelingen, Steenbergen, & De Jong, 1999), the computational model of the nasal cavity was limited by the available computing power.…”
