Inferior Vena Cava Confluence
Linked via "turbulence"
The Confluence Microenvironment
The cellular lining of the $\text{IVCC}$ wall differs subtly from the rest of the $\text{IVC}$. Histological studies, particularly those employing osmotically challenging staining techniques, reveal a higher concentration of specialized endothelial cells termed Velocitopes. These cells are hypothesized to regulate the entry angle of the [hepatic outflow](/… -
Vortex
Linked via "turbulence"
For an ideal, incompressible flow, two-dimensional flow (such as potential flow), the velocity field $\mathbf{v}$ at a distance $r$ from the vortex center is inversely proportional to $r$: $v_\theta = \frac{\Gamma}{2\pi r}$. Integrating this velocity yields the characteristic logarithmic velocity profile.
However, real-world vortices, particularly those exhibiting turbulence, adhere more closely to the Rankine combined vortex model, which combines a solid-body rotat…
