Research Abstract |
The objective of the present study is to evaluate by computational analysis the effects of dialyzer jacket baffle structure, taper angle, and taper length on dialysis fluid flow. The baffle fully surrounding hollow-fiber bundle and taper structure are effective for uniformizing dialysis fluid flow. Optimum design of dialysis jacket structure is essential to optimizing dialysis fluid flow and to increasing dialyzer performance.
