Steady Flow in a Patient-Averaged Inferior Vena Cava —Part II: Computational Fluid Dynamics Verification and Validation

ConclusionsOverall, the study demonstrates mesh-convergent CFD simulations that predict IVC flow patterns that agree reasonably well with PIV data, even at exercise conditions where the flow in the IVC is extremely complex.
