The aim of the current study was to develop a method
that enables us to measure axial velocity profiles
during high frequency oscillated ventilation using
19F-MRI. This work includes constant flow measurements
at Reynolds numbers Re = {10 254, 15744, 21 306} and
direct numerical simulations (DNS) solving the discrete
Navier-Stokes equations using a finite-volume method.
Measurement and simulation results were in good
agreement. Flow measurements during HFOV of 4 Hz were
successfully performed and show as well a good agreement
with theoretical data.
