Study of Blood Flow with Effects of Slip in Arterial Stenosis Due to Presence of Transverse Magnetic Field
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MANAGEMENT & INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
The flow of blood in human circulatory system can be controlled by applying appropriate magnetic field. It is also well known that non-Newtonian nature of blood significantly influences the flows, particularly in the cases where blood vessels are curved, branching or narrow etc. Stenosis refers to localized narrowing of an artery and is a frequent result of arterial disease and is caused mainly due to intravascular atherosclerotic plaque which develops at the arterial wall and protrudes into the lumen of the vessel. Such constrictions disturb normal blood flow through the artery. Here study is made on the flow of blood through a stenosed artery with the effect of slip at the boundary in presence of transverse magnetic field considering blood as Casson fluid (non- Newtonian fluid). The equations of motion has have been solved numerically. The effect of various parameters on the flow characteristics like Hartmann number, Reynolds number has been discussed. Numerical results were obtained for different values of the Hartmann number M and Reynolds number Re. It is observed that the fluid velocity decreases as the Hartmann number increases.
