【 摘 要 】

We have proposed and analyzed a mathematical model for studying the non-Newtonian flow of blood through a constricted arterial segment. The problem is investigated by using two different fluids. The result for resistance to flow across the length of the artery is obtained. It has been observed that increase or decrease in resistance to flow in both the fluids depends on the height of the stenosis. Because of non-Newtonian behaviour of blood these variations are lesser than that of Newtonian fluid. The graphical analysis of the variants of resistance to flow at maximum height of the stenosis is compared with a known investigation.
