Quasi-stationary flow in a channel with a ferrofluid drop, induced by a rotational magnetic field

The paper deals with theoretical study of circulating flow in a channel, filled with non-magnetic liquid and injected drop of a soluble ferrofluid under the action of a uniform rotating magnetic field. The aim of this work is development of a scientific background of intensification of drag transport in thrombosed blood vessels. Our results show that at quite realistic parameters of the system in the channel with the thickness of several millimeters, circulating flow with the rate about hundred millimeter per second can be generated. It can provide significant intensification of molecular admissions (thrombolytics) transport in the channel.

Automated summary

The paper presents a theoretical study on the circulating flow in a channel filled with a non-magnetic liquid and an injected drop of a soluble ferrofluid under the influence of a uniform rotating magnetic field. The aim of this study is to develop a scientific understanding of drag transport intensification in thrombosed blood vessels. The results demonstrate that under realistic parameters, circulating flow with a velocity of approximately one hundred millimeters per second can be generated in a channel with a thickness of several millimeters. This can significantly enhance molecular transport (thrombolytics) in the channel.
