Unsteady flow and mass transfer in models of stenotic arteries considering fluid-structure interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work the unsteady non-Newtonian blood flow and mass transfer in symmetric and non-symmetric stenotic arteries are numerically simulated considering the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) using the code ADINA. Blood with hyperviscosity syndrome is considered and hyperelastic Mooney–Rivlin model is used for the compliant arterial wall. The inlet boundary condition of imposed velocity or pressure is critical to obtain realistic hemodynamic results in stenotic arteries. The FSI affects significantly the hemodynamics on the stenotic arteries models, the arteries are considerably dilated and compressed due the stenosis. The stenosis severity and geometry have important influence on recirculation length, and distribution of concentration of macromolecules, such as low density lipoproteins (LDL). © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

متن کاملCharacterization of unsteady double-diffusive mixed convection flow with soret and dufour effects in a square enclosure with top moving lid
The present study considers the numerical examination of an unsteady thermo-solutal mixed convection when the extra mass and heat diffusions, called as Soret and Dufour effects, were not neglected. The numerical simulations were performed in a lid-driven cavity, where the horizontal walls were kept in constant temperatures and concentrations. The vertical walls were well insulated. A finite vol...
