The article presents the mathematical modeling of the phenomenon of artificial hyperthermia which is caused by the interaction of an electric field. The electric field is induced by the applicator positioned within the biological tissue with cancer. In addition, in order to estimate the degree of tumor destruction under the influence of high temperature an Arrhenius integral has been used. The distribution of electric potential in the domain considered is described by the Laplace system of equations, while the temperature field is described by the Pennes system of equations. These problems are coupled by source function being the additional component in the Pennes equation and resulting from the electric field action. The boundary element method is applied to solve the coupled problem connected with the heating of biological tissues. |
