Abstract.
Our simulation results show great efficiency of the irrigation procedure in terms of the irrigant volume fraction and wall shear stress at the wall of the root canal over entire working length.
This assertion is acknowledged in literature, see for example [9], but no one has ever considered this stage as an indispensable prerequisite for a reliable simulation of the fluid mechanics of the irrigation process.
Previous CFD investigations in root canal irrigation [1, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14] considered only irrigant mass flow rate, size and type of the needle and the distance between the tip of needle and the apical foramen as analysis parameters.
The simulation is performed within Ansys CFX environment.

Numerical simulations
The numerical simulations include the development of an axi-symmetric model of the squeeze mode MR mount of Fig. 1, the parameter sensitivity study as well as calculations of the complex transfer function of the MR mount when subjected to a sweep-sine displacement input.
The study shows simulation results and is carried out for the purpose of the demonstration of the squeeze mode performance characteristics.
It seems from the simulations the best effect with the squeeze mode mount can be achieved in cases involving small initial (mid-position) gaps.
Finally, a parallel study involving a CFD model of the mount is in progress.

Simulation and analysis on the pressure-increasing effect of the pipeline
supercharging caused by self-oscillation cavity were carried out by finite element method.
Previous experimental results are accordant with the present simulation results.
The flow field analysis of 3D un-compressible flow may be predigested as the 2D problem by using commercially available Finite Element-code FLOTRAN CFD function of ANSYS.
We may therefore conclude that the numerical analyses are reliable since the experimental results in [4] are accordant with the present simulation results.
