Abstract

This work uses the lattice Boltzmann model (LBM) to solve the Pennes bio-heat equation (BHE) to predict the temperature rise behavior occurring in cylindrical biological tissues during magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH). Therefore, LBM is extended to solve the bio-heat transfer problem with curved boundary conditions. Effect of magnetic nanoparticles' (MNPs) volume fraction as well as the vastness of heated region on the temperature distribution are shown. The analytical and numerical finite difference solutions reveal the accuracy of the model.
