Simulation of direct perfusion through 3d cellular scaffolds with different porosity

The perfusion bioreactor has become an ideal environment for cultivating tissues such as cardiac muscle, liver and cartilage. In this study, a perfusion process was modeled using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The CFD model is based on simplification of the geometry of porous scaffolds, and is...
