Steady airway inhalation has been computed inside a human respiratory model using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The flow patterns were yielded through visualization of planes in complex flow areas that depicted formations of turbulent flow primarily from the nasal cavity to trachea. In this study, the convective heat transfer coefficients under a wide range of inspiratory flow rates were calculated and validated with values in the literature.
