HYBRID NANOFLUID FLOWS THROUGH A VERTICAL DISEASED CORONARY ARTERY WITH HEAT TRANSFER
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are now widely used because of their synthesis compatibility and less toxicity in several biomedical applications such as cancer treatment. From the fluid mechanics point of view, we examine the behavior of a mixture of gold and Titanium Oxide nanoparticles, which suspended in the blood as a base fluid in the diseased coronary artery. The main goal of this paper is to examine and shed light on the hybrid nanofluid flows through a vertical diseased artery in the presence of the catheter tube with heat transfer. The mathematical model is established and then solved with the Laplace and the finite Hankel transforms. The inverse of the transformed functions has been calculated numerically. The velocity, the pressure, the impedance and the heat transfer are discussed graphically. It is noteworthy to mention that the mixture of the nanoparticles dispersed in the blood needs high pressure to push it. The impedance of blood is proportional to the overall volume concentration of the nanoparticles and Reynolds number.
