Numerical analysis was performed for the effect of the venous anastomosis angle in a forearm arteriovenous graft for hemodialysis using a multiphase blood model. The geometry of the blood vessel was generated based on the patient-computed tomography data. The anastomosis angles were set at 15°, 30°, and 45°. The hematocrit was set at 34%, 45%, and 58%. The larger anastomosis angle, high wall shear stress area >11 Pa, increases to the side of the vein wall away from the anastomosis site. Further, the relatively low wall shear stress area, |
