Abstract

A mathematical model is developed to study the effect of couple stress on the blood flow through two-dimensional symmetric arteries with stenosis. The present model is consists of a core region to be a couple stress fluid and the peripheral layer of Newtonian fluid. Analytical expressions have been obtained for resistance to flow and wall shear stress with the height of stenosis. The numerical values are derived from these analytic expressions. The effect of various parameters on these flows has been examined and depicted through graphs for different values. The information of blood flow could be very useful in the development of new diagnosis tool for the arterial disease.
