Abstract

In this paper, a two-dimensional finite element model has been developed to study thermal disturbances in elliptical shaped human limbs involving uniformly perfused tumor. The model incorporates the effect of important physiological parameters like blood mass flow rate, self-controlled metabolic activity and thermal conductivity in dermal regions. For tumor regions the uncontrolled rate of metabolic activity and abnormal rate of blood flow have been incorporated. The outer surface of the limb is exposed to the environment where heat loss takes place via the conduction, convection, radiation and evaporation. Appropriate boundary conditions have been framed. The model has been simulated using MATLAB 7.5 to obtain numerical results.
