Popis: | In this study, we have used computational fluid dynamics to investigate the blood flow in the stenosed blood vessels. The numerical simulation using commercial software ADINA 8.6 were solved about the stenosed blood vessel according to the percent of stenosis and Reynolds number. The blood flow in the normal and stenosed blood vessel was grasped for the validity of the model. The characteristic of the pulsatile flow changed through the steady state flow and analysis of the pulsatile flow according to the time was grasped. The computational model with the characteristics of the fluid-structure interaction is introduced to investigate the wall shear stress, pressure distribution and axial flow velocity. The results show that axial flow velocity and wall shear stress in the region of stenosis was increased by increasing percent of stenosis and Reynolds number. Also, we can know that in the stenosed blood vessel the possibility of the generation of the aneurysm was increased by increasing Reynolds number and percent of stenosis. |
