Numerical results indicate that the droplet/particle-vapor interaction and the heat and mass transfer of the mucus-tissue layer must be considered in the computational lung aerosol dynamics study, since they can significantly influence the precise predictions of the aerosol transport and deposition. If the more realistic thermal boundary (Chen, 11 al., 2018; Wu, et al., 2014) and indoor air conditions (McFadden Jr, et al., 1985) are 12 considered, higher inhalation flow rate also has a stronger cooling effect on the 13 mucus-tissue layer, which further affects the mucus evaporation. Therefore, the 14 transport, hygroscopic growth, and deposition of multi-component droplets have not 15 been investigated under different inhalation flow rate conditions, when employing the 16 more realistic thermal boundary conditions. ./cache/cord-306861-qcctchsk.txt ./txt/cord-306861-qcctchsk.txt
