Abstract

This paper presents thermal and hydrodynamic behaviours of some selected food supplements in a modelled oesophagus. These food supplements are orange juice and water melon juice while chyme was used as the base food supplement for comparison. Numerical method was adopted using Solid Works 2014 and Ansys fluent as working tools.
