Abstract

The present study considers the steady, laminar and axially symmetrical flow of blood through an artery provided with a mild stenosis under the influence of an externally applied homogeneous magnetic field. Assuming that blood has small electrical conductivity coupled with the Boussinesq approximation, the leading equations are solved using Frobenius method. Expressions are obtained for the flow velocity, the wall shearing stress and the volumetric flow rate. The effect of the radiative heat is discussed quantitatively. Our results show good agreement with previously reported works.
