Lattice Boltzmann Simulation of Effect of Rolling Manipulation of Traditional Chinese Massage on Blood Flow

Article Preview

Abstract:

A 2D Lattice Boltzmann model for a blood vesssel under rolling manipulation(RM) was presented. The influence of rolling frequency and stenosis coefficient on blood flux, wall shear stress and flow velocity was given by the numerical simulation based on lattice Boltzmann method . It is found that increasing RM frequency can not always increase the flux. There is a proper RM frequency for maximum flux.When the maximum stenosis coefficient increases,the change range of flux and wall shear stress will increase. The rolling massage can also change flow velocity in different sections of blood vessel.
