Study of Arterial Blood Flow in Stenosed Vessel Using Non-Newtonian Couple Stress Fluid Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
A mathematical analysis has been presented to study the effect of a mild stenosis on blood flow characteristics with the representation of blood by couple stress fluid. The equations governing the flow of the proposed model are solved and closed form expressions for the blood flow characteristics, namely, dimensionless resistance to flow and wall shear stress at maximum height of the stenosis are derived. It has been found that the wall shear stress and normalized resistive impedance increase with increasing tube radius for constant value of the stenosis height. This model helps for the people working in the field of physiological fluid dynamics as well as to the medical practitioners.

In the present study, the nonlinear model of non-Newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. The model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. The vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. The cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...

The analysis of solute and thermal dispersion in pulsatile flow through the stenotic tapered blood vessel is presented. The present problem is an extension of the work done by Ramana et al. who considered the time-invariant arterial wall. In the present model, the flexible nature of the arterial wall through the obstruction (called stenosis) is considered and it is achieved with the he...
