The Blood Flow Simulations Using Generalized Newtonian Models
Original language description
A numerical investigation of the blood flow is presented in this paper. Human blood is assumed to be shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluid. The viscosity of blood decreases with increasing shear rate (velocity gradient). The shear-thinning viscosity model is used. In this paper we have investigated the influence of the flow rate on the viscosity magnitude, that is generated by the shear-thinning viscosity model. There were performed a number of simulations with different flow rates to explore the dependencies between the width of the blood vessel and the flow rate of the blood. We have assumed two-dimensional, steady flow of incompressible fluid. All the regimes of flow are considered to be laminar, the highest Reynolds number is about 300. Numerical method we have used is based on solving Navier-Stokes equations using Finite Volume Method.
