The present paper concerns with the fluid mechanical study on the effects of the permeability of the wall through an overlapping stenosis in an artery assuming that the flowing blood is represented by a macroscopic two-phase model. The expressions for the blood flow characteristics, the impedance, the wall shear stress distribution in the stenotic region, shearing stress at the stenosis throats and at the stenosis critical height have been derived. Results for the effects of permeability as well as of hematocrit on these blood flow characteristics are shown graphically and discussed briefly.

The present investigation concerns the fluid mechanical study on the effects of the permeability of the wall through an axisymmetric stenosis in an artery assuming that the flowing blood is represented by a two-fluid model. The expressions for the blood flow characteristics, the impedance, the wall shear stress distribution in the stenotic region and the shearing stress at the stenosis throat have been derived. Results for the effects of permeability as well as of the peripheral layer on these blood flow characteristics are quantified through numerical computations and presented graphically and discussed comparatively to validate the applicability of the present model.

The present study concerns with the effects of the hematocrit and the peripheral layer on blood flow characteristics due to the presence of a bell shaped stenosis in arteries. To account for the hematocrit and the peripheral layer, the flowing blood has been represented by a two-layered macroscopic two-phase (i.e., a suspension of red cells in plasma) model. The expressions for the flow characteristics, namely, the velocity profiles, the flow rate, the impedance, the wall shear stress in the stenotic region and the shear stress at the stenosis throat have been derived. The quantitative effects of the hematocrit and the peripheral layer on these flow characteristics have been displayed graphically and discussed briefly.

In this paper, the blood flow through a tapered artery with a stenosis by considering axially non-symmetric but radially symmetric mild stenosis on blood flow characteristics is analyzed, assuming the flow is steady and blood is treated as Williamson fluid. Perturbation 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.

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects of unsteady blood flow on Casson fluid through an artery with overlapping stenosis were investigated. The nonlinear governing equations accompanied by the appropriate boundary conditions were discretized and solved based on a finite difference technique, using the pressure correction method with MAC algorithm. Moreover, blood flow characteristics, such as the velocity profile, pressure drop, wall shear stress, and patterns of streamlines, are presented graphically and inspected thoroughly for understanding the blood flow phenomena in the stenosed artery.

Effect of heat and mass transfer on the blood flow through a tapered artery with stenosis is examined assuming blood as Jeffrey fluid. The governing equations have been modelled in cylindrical coordinates. Series solutions are constructed for the velocity, temperature, concentration, resistance impedance, wall shear stress and shearing stress at the stenosis throat. Attention has been mainly focused to the analysis of embedded parameters in converging, diverging and non-tapered situations.

In this present study a two-phase model for the influence of aspirin on peripheral layer viscosity for physiological characteristics of blood flow through stenosed blood vessels using Casson’s fluid model has been obtained. Flow of blood with axially non-symmetric but radially symmetric stenosis geometry is considered. The non-linear pressure equations have been solved with help of boundary conditions and the results are displayed graphically for different flow characteristics. It was found that the resistance to flow decreases as stenosis shape parameter increases whereas the resistance to flow increases with increasing values of stenosis length, stenosis size and peripheral layer viscosity. The effects of stenosis severity and wall shear stress are discussed in the present computational analysis. Comparisons between the measured and computed peripheral layer viscosity profiles are favourable to the solutions. As a result it can be concluded that a regular dose of Asprin decreases the blood viscosity by diluting the blood of diabetic patients which ultimately decreases the blood pressure. For the validation of the numerical model, the computation results are compared with the experimental data and results from published literature.
