摘要: In this study we investigated the hot caloric test response in three semicircular canals using coupled fluid flow, natural convection and fluid-structure interaction with finite element method. We demonstrated that temperature distribution of horizontal canal duct is more dominant a longer period irrigation time required order to stimulate two other vertical canals. Our results also show shear stress force from end lymph flow during convection. Future studies are necessary for validation presented computer model clinical measurements.
