Abstract

Unsteady blood flow characterized by the generalized power law model in a stenosed artery subject to external body acceleration is considered numerically using the Marker and Cell finite difference discretization on staggered grid, where the pressure is calculated iteratively using the successive-over-relaxation method. The codes have been developed and the results analysed using Matlab. The focus of discussion is on the effects of body acceleration on the flow characteristics, in particular its effects on the wall pressure, pressure drop and the streamlines as these results have not yet been presented and discussed in previous works.
