A mathematical model for the ultrasonic measurement of respiratory flow
Tóm tắt
A mathematical model is developed for the measurement of respiratory air flow, based on the phase shift of ultrasonic pulse trains. A correction is made for the velocity of found as a function of gas composition, moisture, temperature and pressure. Error estimates and calibration procedures as they relate to clinical application are discussed.
