Numerical study of Newtonian fluid in tree-shaped structures

We address the effect of the network size-limiting constraints on the optimal design. The optimal design of a symmetrical dichotomous tree structure with several branching levels for laminar flow of a Newtonian fluid is studied numerically. For optimal flow design to emerge, it is necessary to inclu...
