In this work, the comparison between the Newtonian and the Power Law models was pointed out to determine the flow field within a system that includes the bypass of a narrowing zone (Stenosis) of an ideal artery. The simulations were conducted in a transient regime considering the pulsed effect inside the veins. The results show that the Power Law model does not sufficiently coincide with the Newtonian model, especially for describing the wall stresses. More specifically, the Power Law model predicts a velocity profile that remains parabolic for the entire time range analyzed, while the Newtonian model captures vorticities.

Abstract
In this work, the comparison between the Newtonian and the Power Law models was pointed out to determine the flow field within a system that includes the bypass of a narrowing zone (Stenosis) of an ideal artery. The simulations were conducted in a transient regime considering the pulsed effect inside the veins. The results show that the Power Law model does not sufficiently coincide with the Newtonian model, especially for describing the wall stresses. More specifically, the Power Law model predicts a velocity profile that remains parabolic for the entire time range analyzed, while the Newtonian model captures vorticities.File in questo prodotto:
