Microfluid fluid flow through a circular tube with internal heat generation (Q1060936)

Effect of zero, twenty, and forty percent volume concentration of inner structure on velocity, microrotation, internal heat generation, and temperature variation distribution is examined in the case of blood flow through a circular tube. It is shown that increasing concentration of red cells contributes to temperature augmentation which is attributed to higher viscous dissipation caused by rotating cells in shear flow. At the axis of the tube, the temperature difference rises considerably higher (two or more times) than its classical value.
