Abstract
The method for analysis of the effect of airflow on the nasal mucosa is proposed in the paper. This method is based on the separation of turbulent air flow into a turbulent core and laminar boundary layer. The studies have shown that with increasing respiration rate (volume air flow) the thickness of the laminar boundary layer decreases. At the same time, a significant difference in the thicknesses of the boundary layer is observed in the area of low and average flow rates with quiet and moderate nasal breathing. The thickness of the boundary layer decreases sharply during forced respiration, especially with constriction of nasal cavity, which is typical for hypertrophic rhinitis. These experimental results require further study, cytological verification, clinical evaluation and validation.References
