Abstract
Abstract Fluid flow in the human body can be modeled using a water-level tank, a commonly used mechanistic approach in mechanical engineering for fluid transport processes. Postoperative fluid data from patients undergoing cardiac surgery is used to estimate fluid flow dynamics and total body water in the human body. This simplified model provide a basic understanding of the dynamics of fluid flow processes in the human body and could aid in modeling distribution of fluids in compartments.
