The authors carry out a numerical study of Newtonian and non-Newtonian flows in an axisymmetric tube with a local constriction, simulating a stenosed artery under steady and pulsatile flow conditions. The effects of macromolecule transport, wall shear-stress, non-Newtonian fluid characteristics and of the molecular scale are examined, and the concentration fields of low density lipoprotein and albumin are obtained.
