Studies on the dynamic behaviours and mechanisms of hepatic vessel perfusion with simple vessel models

The hydrodynamic behaviours of the perfusion process (cleaning) of the liver vessels before the operation was studied. A straight and a curved First-Class vessel entity model with foreign matter and the control equations of turbulent liquid in the vessels were established. With the physical parameters of a medical perfusion liquid measured, an estimation method of perfusion parameters was proposed. The simulation was performed by changing technical parameters of the perfusion. It is based on the control equations of turbulent liquid in the vessels and the preliminary calculated results using the vessel models. The simulation was performed by changing technical parameters of the perfusion. It is based on the control equations of turbulent liquid in the vessels and the preliminary calculated results using the vessel models. With the increasing perfusion velocities, the pressure and the velocity field increased in the two types of the vessel models. The negative trans-mural pressure and recirculation zones appeared and located on the foreign matter. Because of the influence of the vessel shape, the fluid dynamics behaviours in the curved vessel model are more complicated than those in the straight vessel model.
