MHD blood flow and heat transfer through an inclined porous stenosed   artery with variable viscosity
  In this article, effects of heat transfer on MHD blood flow through a stenosed inclined porous artery with heat source have been investigated. The viscosity of the blood is assumed to be varying radially with hematocrit throughout the region of the artery. Governing equations have been derived by treating blood as incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Newtonian fluid. Momentum and energy equations of the fluid flow are simplified under the assumption of mild stenosis. Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is used to solve nonlinear differential equations for velocity and temperature profiles of the blood flow. Variation of flow rate and shear stress for different values of inclination angle and hematocrit parameter along the diseased part of artery have been plotted graphically. For having the adequate insight of the flow pattern in the diseased artery, velocity contours have been plotted for different values of the height of the stenosis and for different inclination angles of the artery.
