Biomedical Applications of Casson Nanofluids: Understanding Blood Flow in Porous Arteries

Abstract

This study takes an innovative approach to investigating the potential applications of nanofluids in biomedicine. Specifically, the study focuses on exploring the flow heat and mass transfer properties of blood nanofluid in a porous artery. To describe mathematically the phenomenon, the Buongiorno two-phase model was used, which accounts for the slip mechanism in nanofluids. Additionally, the study incorporates a constant magnetic field to gain insight into the potential benefits of magnetic therapy in medical treatment. The use of the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method provides precise numerical solutions and allows for a comprehensive analysis of the results. To simulate the squeezing and expansion actions of the artery caused by the heart, the study models the artery as two parallel plates moving towards and away from each other. This modeling approach provides a realistic representation of blood behavior in the human body and can inform future research and potential medical applications. Overall, this research is a valuable addition to the growing body of knowledge on nanofluids and their potential uses in the field of biomedicine. The knowledge acquired from this study has the potential to give rise to novel medical treatments and therapies, and the methods utilized in this research can provide a foundation for future investigations in this field.
