Abstract:
This article introduces the working principle and the structural design of an initiative lung simulator based on plunger. The lung simulator is intended to test the monitor parameter and trigger function of the ventilator. Lung simulator can ventilate initiatively by adjusting the parameters such as tidal volume(VT). frequency and inspiration time.
