Abstract
The influence of blood rheology on hemodynamic parameters is investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics on blood flow through the human carotid artery. We performed three-dimensional modeling and simulation to study blood flow through the carotid artery, which is divided into internal and exterior parts with a decreased radius. The blood flow was classified as basic pulsatile to simulate the human heart's rhythmic pulses. For hemodynamic modeling viscosity of the fluid, the Carreau model was utilized with four distinct blood instances: Anemic, diabetic, and two healthy blood types. The boundary conditions with Carreau viscosity were applied using the Ansys Fluent simulator, and the governing equations were solved using the finite volume technique. Different time steps were tested for their impact on wall deformation, strain rate, blood velocity, pressure, wall shear, and skin friction coefficient. The hemodynamical parameters were calculated using many cross-sectional planes along the artery. Finally, the impact of the four types of blood cases listed above was investigated, and we discovered that each blood case has a substantial impact on blood velocity, pressure, wall shear, and strain rate along the artery.
