Figure 2: Velocity profiles of blood flow at different
resolutions
Some physically reasonable assumptions have been considered through the
numerical model as presented in the numerical methodology section. In
addition, it was also assumed that the given physical properties remain
constant during the process. The simulation parameters are presented in
Table (1). It must be noted that the properties of permeability
parameter are used according to Kozeny equation. (4). The range of
Reynolds number is 0.1–5 for blood flow through vessels according to
[21]. Finally the other numerical values involving parameters are
used with the respect of physiological ranges referring to [22-24]
