EFFECTS OF MAGNETIC FIELD ON HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN PULSATILE FLOW OF BLOOD UNDER STENOTIC CONDITION

A mathematical model is developed in the present study to investigate the heat and mass transfer phenomena in blood flow under stenotic condition. The non -Newtonian Carreau fluid model is used to characterize the streaming blood. The nonlinear governing equations are solved numerically by employing a finite difference scheme along with suitable initial and boundary conditions under the action of applied magnetic field. Various significant hemodynamic parameters are examined for additional qualitative insight of the flow -field, temperature -field and concentration -field over the entire flow regime with the help of the numerical results obtained in this study. Comparisons are made with available results in open literature and are found in good agreement between these two results.
