As a start, try these references:

Computational Flow and Aerosol Concentration Profiles in Lung Bifurcations. Kinsara, Tompson, Loyalka. 1993. Health Physics Society, Vol. 64, No.1, pg. 13-22

Application of Computational Fluid Dynamics to Regional Dosimetry of Inhaled Chemicals in the Upper Respiratory Tract of the Rat. 1993. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, Vol. 121, pg. 253-263.

And don't forget to read books by Anderson, Peric, and the like...
