The objective of this paper is to explore flow patterns in nasal cavity . The nasal cavity of human and canine are considered in this study.The computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model of the nasal cavities are generated using CFD software Gambit and the analysis is done with Fluent software which employs finite volume method. The physical properties of hydrogen-sulfide are used in the CFD simulation. The flow patterns are visualized to understand implications of sensing.
