Abstract. A model of magnetohydrodynamic blood flow through an artery with a mild
stenosis under the influence of metallic nanoparticles is presented. The
coupled nonlinear partial differential equations governing the problem are
simplified by subject to reasonable modeling and stenosis approximations to
obtain analytic expressions for the flow characteristics. The expressions
for velocity, temperature profile, stream function, flow resistance and wall
shear stress distribution are obtained in the present analysis. Effects of
some emerging physical parameters on arterial blood flow characteristics are
shown graphically and discussed briefly under the influence of metallic nano
particles (nanofluid model). Finally, stream line patterns illustrating size
and number of trapping boluses are introduced and discussed for various
imbedded parameters.
