Figure 17. Comparison of the Fahraeus-Lindqvist effect in symmetric and asymmetric stenosis.

Figure 17

(a) Variation of μrel with respect to D for Inline graphic = 0 and 1. The dash-dot line is the relative viscosity obtained in the asymmetric stenosis for a Newtonian fluid having viscosity equal to the apparent blood viscosity in non-stenosed tubes. (b) Variation of μrel with respect to S for different vessels.
