Literature has shown that from a CT Scan we can create an accurate patient specific 3D model of large vessels such as the Aorta. From this 3D Model it is possible to find many accurate readings per patient. The issue is that the 3D models can take a while to create and run. So I was looking into creating an accurate 2D model which would provide feasible results for fluid flow within the Aorta. Like mentioned it was easier working with symmetric models such as a pipe and a bifurcation, but is it possible to do so with asymetric models? For simple models I used the axisymmetric solver which is why it was possible, when using the planar solver I have been unable to get the desired results.
