Abstract
Catheterization has an imperative rule in heat transfer investigations, which are frequently applied to analyze and deal with the heart transfer studies. Here, the entering of a catheter adjusts the flow of the blood and it affects the hemodynamic status in the artery region. In practical clinical cases, catheters cannot be precisely concentric with the artery. The impartial of this work is to investigate the behavior of a blood streaming characteristics, in the case of injecting the catheter eccentrically all the way through a stenotic overlapping artery. In this paper, we consider the heat transfer within the presence of blood corpuscle which has been characterized by a macroscopic two-phase model (i.e. a suspension of erythrocytes in plasma). The model here considers the blood fluid as a liquid fluid with adjourned particles in the gap bounded by the eccentric cylinder. The inside cylinder is identically rigid demonstrating the movable thin catheter and kept at constant temperature, where the outer cylinder is a taper cylinder demonstrating the artery that has overlapping stenosis and it is cooled and maintained at zero temperature. The coupled differential equations for both fluid (plasma) and particle (erythrocyte) phases have been solved. The expressions for the flow characteristics, namely, the flow rate, the impedance (resistance to flow), the wall shear stress and the temperature distribution, have been derived. The model is very useful in medicine, where the hemodynamic speed is higher for eccentric case than that of concentric one. Also, the temperature distribution and the entropy generation in the state of eccentric position are higher than in the case of the concentric position. A significant increase in the magnitude of the impedance and the wall shear stress occurs for an increase in the hematocrit, C for diseased blood.
