{A} fluid dynamic study using particle tracking velocimetry

abstract = {Sponges are filter feeders relying on an efficient fluid
transport system to capture food. In the classical model of
flow the aquiferous system consists of incurrent –and
excurrent canal system and choanocyte chambers. However,
morphological studies in the last years revealed yet another
architectural structure in leucon-type canal systems, the so
called bypass elements. These structures lead to a direct
connection between incurrent and excurrent canal system
elements without passing choanocyte chambers. Due to their
interconnected nature they are opening up alternative flow
pathways.In order to study the fluid mechanics impact of
bypass elements in Tethya wilhelma we investigated internal
flow fields and canal system architecture. A virtual 3D
canal system model was developed based on SRµCT data. This
model was utilized in FEM flow simulations. In vivo particle
tracking velocimetry measurements of oscular outflow
velocity served as initial boundary conditions. Microscopic
investigations supplemented detailed morphometric
information on the cellular level for various elements of
the aquiferous system (e.g. apopylar and prosopylar
openings). Results of the simulation were verified in an
experimental setup making use of a rapid prototype model.
Flow trajectories were visualized by high-speed
videography.Our preliminary results indicate a recirculation
of water within in the canal system. Within the FEM-models
it was not possible to introduce passive flows. The same
holds for the developed rapid prototype model. However,
principle flow patterns observed in the FEM simulation could
be verified. In contrast to a water flow being channeled
through bypass elements leading to a reduced flow in the
remaining parts of the canal system a recirculation is
expected to result in an improved filtering efficiency.},
