Inclined magnetic field analysis for metallic nanoparticles submerged in blood with convective boundary condition

The considered analysis comprises the impact of inclined magnetic field on the characteristics of the nanofluid through an inclined annulus under the effects of nanoparticles by considering an appropriate mathematical model. Analysis is introduced by considering blood as the base fluid and metals such as copper and silver as the nanoparticles in the existence of convective boundary condition. Lubrication approach is used to simplify the problem. Impact of related parameters on pressure rise, pressure gradient, velocity and streamlines are interpreted graphically. Comparison among the pure blood, silver blood and copper blood is presented and analyzed. It is also revealed that inclusion of nanoparticles enlarged the velocity of fluid. Another valuable finding of the present investigation is that the silver nanoparticles enhance the pressure gradient more prominently than pure blood. Therefore, the current investigation is capable to achieve some essential and interested characteristic in few biomedical applications. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
