Mechanical power in AVM-2 versus conventional ventilation modes in a normal lung model: A bench study

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2022
Introduction Recent studies suggested that the energy delivered by the mechanical ventilator to the lungs termed the mechanical power can induce and increase the risks of ventilator induced lung injury.

Nicotinamide exacerbates hypoxemia in ventilator-induced lung injury independent of neutrophil infiltration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
BACKGROUND:Ventilator-induced lung injury is a form of acute lung injury that develops in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation and has a high degree of mortality. Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase is an enzyme that is highly upregulated

Design for a Squirrel Cage Fan with Double Arc Blade

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Squirrel cage fans are commonly used in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems. The single arc blade model is commonly used in this type of fans since it can be shaped simply only by two parameters of inlet and outlet angle of blade ...
