Abstract
The pulsatile blood flow in tapered asymmetrically constricted narrow artery is investigated, treating the blood as Carreau fluid model. The expressions obtained by Sankar (2016) for various flow quantities are used to analyze the flow in different arterial geometry. It is found that the wall shear stress and longitudinal impedance to flow decrease with the increase of stenosis shape parameter, amplitude of the pulsatile pressure gradient, flow rate, power law index and Weissenberg number. The estimates of the percentage of increase in the wall shear stress and longitudinal impedance to flow increase with the increase of the angle tapering.
