Numerical Modeling of Microfluid Dynamics in Xylem Vessels of Khaya grandifoliola [PDF]

Water, 2021
Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) can be used to quantify the internal flow variables of xylem conducting vessels. This study aims to analyze through numerical simulations the xylem water ascent of African mahogany (Khayagrandifoliola) cultivated under different irrigation regimes. We determined a geometric model, defined through the variability of the
