Abstract

This work highlighted a close-up version of the aortic valve that provide detail parameter and clearer graphics compared to the 3D version. Therefore, four simplified models are designed and simulated by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) which are one healthy valve model (100%) and three stenotic models with varying valve opening (70%, 50%, and 30%). The model dimensions and setup parameters are determined by comparing the healthy aortic valve with the previous data. The analysis focused on two different views, which are the view on a targeting line velocity along the x-axis, and the view at the y-axis around the aortic valve. Results on the evaluation graph at the x-axis and y-axis show significant differences in flow patterns between healthy and aortic valve stenosis. The healthy model of 100% valve opening depicted a lower velocity (m/s) at 1.5m/s compared to the stenotic model of 70%, 50%, and 30% valve opening that showed higher velocities of 3.24 m/s, 6.09 m/s, and 14.57 m/s, respectively, due to the narrowing of the valve opening. Thus, the smallest orifice of the valve produced a higher velocity. This finding highlights the importance of hemodynamic assessment in aortic valve stenosis by providing valuable insight for clinicians in pre-surgical evaluation.
