Abstract
The particle deposition in CT-scanned lung model has been investigated using laminar model. The five-generation airway is extracted from the trachea to segmental bronchi of a 60-year-old Chinese male patient. Particle deposition patterns, deposition efficiency and deposition factor were studied in detail. The cartilage has significant influence on the particle deposition which would capture a lot of particles. About 90% of the particles could flow through the upper five-generation airways and get into the deep bronchi.
