Mathematical models of particle deposition in the human respiratory tract.
J. Aerosol Sci. 15, 697-707 (1984)
Several mathematical formalisms have been proposed to calculate particle transport onto airway surfaces: the temporally and spatially discrete Findeisen formalism; the temporally discrete and spatially continuous Altshuler formalism; and the temporally and spatially continuous Taulbee-Yu formalism; they are termed primary deposition models. Models adopting these formalisms are termed secondary deposition models. This review concentrates on the discussion of the general concepts of primary models and their numerical verification and on characteristics of secondary models. Current deposition models predict particle deposition in close agreement with current experimental data.
