Abstract
Pressure distributions for the uniform glottis were obtained with a static physical model (M5). Glottal diameters of d=0.005, 0.0075, 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16, and 0.32 cm were used with a range of phonatory transglottal pressures. At each pressure and diameter, entrance loss and exit coefficients were determined. In general, both coefficients decreased in value as the transglottal pressure or the diameter increased. Entrance loss coefficients ranged from 0.69 to 17.6. Use of these coefficients with the measured flow rates in straightforward equations accurately reproduced the pressure distributions within the glottis and along the inferior vocal fold surface.
