In the present work a two fluid model for blood flow through abnormally constrictedhuman artery (stenosed artery) has been developed. The model consists of a core region of suspensionof all erythrocytes assumed to be micro-polar fluid so as to include the micro-structural effects inaddition to the peripheral-layer viscosity effects, and a peripheral plasma layer free from cells of anykind of Ne...

the use of flow cytometry in the clinical laboratory has grown substantially in the past decade. flow cytometric analysis provides a rapid qualitative and quantitative description of multiple characteristics of individual cells. for example, it is possible to detect the cell size and granularity, aspects of dna and rna content and the presence of cell surface and nuclear markers which are used ...

high speed wind tunnels are widely used in the study of fluid flow behavior around various objects. the air flow in the starting step of supersonic wind tunnels is transient including strong shock waves caused by the interaction of the tunnel main stream and the boundary layer at walls. to arrive in running step, the tunnel must be designed so as these waves leave immediately the test section. ...

Circulation of cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial around the central nervous system through brain transports not only those water-like fluids but also any solutes they carry, including nutrients, drugs, metabolic wastes. Passing tissue primarily during sleep, this circulation has implications for neurodegenerative disorders Alzheimer's disease, damage stroke cardiac arrest, flow-related such ...

In this paper conjugated heat transfer in thermal entrance region through the sinusoidal wavy channel has been investigated. The fluid flow is assumed to be laminar, steady state, incompressible, and hydrodynamically fully developed. A constant heat flux is assumed to be applied on the outer edge of the channel wall. In this study the governing equations including continuity, momentum and energ...

Steady hydromagnetic Couette flow of class-II of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium in a rotating system taking Hall current into account is investigated. Heat transfer characteristics of the fluid flow are considered taking viscous and Joule dissipations into account. It is noticed that there exists flow separation at the moving plate in the sec...
