Abstract Blood flow through a bifurcated artery with the presence of an overlapping stenosis located at parent’s arterial lumen under the action of a uniform external magnetic field is studied in this paper. Blood is treated as an electrically conducting fluid which exhibits the Magnetohydrodynamics principle and it is characterized by a Newtonian fluid model. The governing equations are discretized using a stabilization technique of finite element known as Galerkin least-squares. The maximum velocity and pressure drop evaluated in this present study are compared with the results found in previous literature and COMSOL Multiphysics. The solutions found in a satisfactory agreement, thus verify the source code is working properly. The effects of dimensionless parameters of Hartmann and Reynolds numbers in the fluid’s velocity and pressure are examined in details with further scientific discussions.

AbstractThe current work analyzes the effects of concentric ballooned catheterization and heat transfer on the hybrid nano blood flow through diseased arterial segment having both stenosis and aneurysm along its boundary. A fractional second-grade fluid model is considered which describes the non-Newtonian characteristics of the blood. Governing equations are linearized under mild stenosis and mild aneurysm assumptions. Precise articulations for various important flow characteristics such as heat transfer, hemodynamic velocity, wall shear stress, and resistance impedance are attained. Graphical portrayals for the impact of the significant parameters on the flow attributes have been devised. The streamlines of blood flow have been examined as well. The present finding is useful for drug conveyance system and biomedicines.

AbstractThe present communication presents a theoretical study of blood flow through a stenotic artery with a porous wall comprising Brinkman and Darcy layers. The governing equations describing the flow subjected to the boundary conditions have been solved analytically under the low Reynolds number and mild stenosis assumptions. Some special cases of the problem are also presented mathematically. The significant effects of the rheology of blood and porous wall of the artery on physiological flow quantities have been investigated. The results reveal that the wall shear stress at the stenotic throat increases dramatically for the thinner porous wall (i.e. smaller values of the Brinkman and Darcy regions) and the rate of increase is found to be 18.46% while it decreases for the thicker porous wall (i.e. higher values of the Brinkman and Darcy regions) and the rate of decrease is found to be 10.21%. Further, the streamline pattern in the stenotic region has been plotted and discussed.

The electro-osmotically modulated hemodynamic across an artery with multiple stenosis is mathematically evaluated. The non-Newtonian behaviour of blood flow is tackled by utilizing Casson fluid model for this flow problem. The blood flow is confined in such arteries due to the presence of stenosis and this theoretical analysis provides the electro-osmotic effects for blood flow through such arteries. The mathematical equations that govern this flow problem are converted into their dimensionless form by using appropriate transformations and then exact mathematical computations are performed by utilizing Mathematica software. The range of the considered parameters is given as [Formula: see text]. The graphical results involve combine study of symmetric and non-symmetric structure for multiple stenosis. Joule heating effects are also incorporated in energy equation together with viscous effects. Streamlines are plotted for electro-kinetic parameter [Formula: see text] and flow rate [Formula: see text]. The trapping declines in size with incrementing [Formula: see text], for symmetric shape of stenosis. But the size of trapping increases for the non-symmetric case.

<p><span lang="EN-IN">The flow of an unsteady incompressible electrically conducting fluid with uniform distribution of dust particles in a constricted channel has been studied. The medium is assumed to be porous in nature. The governing equations of motion are treated analytically and the expressions are obtained by using variable separable and Laplace transform techniques. The influence of the dust particles on the velocity distributions of the fluid are investigated for various cases and the results are illustrated by varying parameters like Hartmann number, deposition thickness on the walls of the cylinder and the permeability of the porous medium on the velocity of dust and fluid phase.</span></p>

In the present paper, we have studied the blood flow through tapered artery with a stenosis. The non-Newtonian nature of blood in small arteries is analyzed mathematically by considering the blood as Phan-Thien–Tanner fluid. The representation for the blood flow is through an axially non-symmetrical but radially symmetric stenosis. Symmetry of the distribution of the wall shearing stress and resistive impedance and their growth with the developing stenosis is another important feature of our analysis. Exact solutions have been evaluated for velocity, resistance impedance, wall shear stress and shearing stress at the stenosis throat. The graphical results of different type of tapered arteries (i.e. converging tapering, diverging tapering, non-tapered artery) have been examined for different parameters of interest.

In this paper, the two-fluid model was adopted to analyze the cavitating flow. Based on Boltzmann equation, governing equations for two-phase cavitating flow were obtained by using the microscopic kinetic theory, in which the equation terms for mass and momentum transportations can be obtained directly. Then the RNG k–ε–kg turbulence model, that is RNG k–ε model for the liquid phase and kg model for the cavity phase, was used to close the Reynolds time-averaged equations. According to the governing equations above, the simulation of the two-phase cavitating flow through a closed pump sump has been carried out. The calculated results have been compared with a PIV experiment. Good agreement exhibited.
