Abstract
In the present study pulsatile flow of of couple-stress
fluid in an eccentric annular region formed by cylinders is
considered. The fourth order partial differential equation
arising due to couple stress from spinning of suspended par-
ticle is solved analytically. Pressure gradient is assumed
to be pulsatile. The region bounded concentric circles in
x-y plane is mapped to concentric circles in plane using a
c
conformal mapping z = . The resulting equations are
1−
analytically solved and a series solution is obtained. Rate
of flow is computed using Greens theorem. Results are nu-
merically computed and graphically depicted. The effect of

1 INTRODUCTION
Many researchers have studied and analysed flow problems in dou-
bly connected regions. Laura[1] has considered the region with
circular external boundary and internal boundary which consists
of several axis of symmetry. Narodetskii and Schennan [2] have
discussed mapping of region bounded by ellipse and circle. Shiva
kumar [3] has studied viscous flow in pipes whose cross-sections are
doubly connected regions. Shivakumar and Ji [4] have studied flow
of Newtonian fluid in doubly connected region where boundaries
are eccentric circles. They have obtained solution of Poisson equa-
tion. Solution [5] have discussed flow through doubly connected
ducts considering ducts bounded externally by circle and internally
by regular polygon of various shapes using finite element method.
Luca et. al[6] have discussed flow past and through porous medium
in a doubly connected region.
Catheters are extensively used in modern medicine. Insertion of
catheter will increase frictional resistance through artery and will
modify the pressure distribution .The rate of flow in artery and will
modify the pressure distribution. The rate of flow governed by need
of surrounding tissues for nutrients . As a result pressure gradient
increases. (see[6])
In a series of papers Pettersson and co-workers [7] have stud-
ied extensively the hydrodynamic effect of catheterization of vessels
with and without stenosis by the help of various experimental mod-
els. MacDonald [8] studied the pulsatile flow in catheterized artery
and obtained theoretical estimates for pressure gradient corrections
for catheters positioned eccentrically as well as concentrically. Dash
et.al [9] have studied changed flow pattern in a narrow artery when
a catheter is inserted into it and estimated the increase in frictional
resistance. Daripa and Dash [10] have studied pulsatile flow of
blood in a straight eccentric catheterized artery by modeling blood
as incompressible Newtonian fluid using fast algorithm. Indira and

2 MAHEMATICAL FORMULATION
The fluid is considered to be couple stress and flow is assumed to
∂p 2π
be due to a pulsatile axial pressure gradient with period .
∂z ω
The physical configuration is as given in the figure. 1. The velocity
field is given by [0, 0, w(x, y, t)] . It is assumed that the artery and
catheter are infinitely long neglecting end effects. Flow is considered
as |laminar and fully developed.

Figure 2 - 5 show plot of pressure gradient verses time and also rate
of flow verse time. The flow rate and pressure pulse are compared
and shows similar variations at any given time. The pressure gradi-
ent and rate flow show almost similar pattern, but pressure gradient
comparatively higher magnitude. The pressure gradient increases
with increase in couple stress parameter are inversely proportional
to the spin of particle..This indicates as the spin or angular velocity
of suspension increases, the fluid flows faster resulting in decrease
of pressure.

4 CONCLUSION
Insertion of catheter alters the pressure profile which is needed to
supply required amount of nutrients to the surrounding tissues. By
maintaining constant flux, the variations in pressure are estimated.
Couple stress parameter is inversely proportional to the spin of the
particle present as it increases, the Newtonian behavior becomes
prominent and pressure increases indicating the Non-Newtonian
nature will be predominant in the situations like annular flow. As
eccentricity parameters ∈→ 0.The results match eccentric cylinders
couple stress parameter η → ∞ reduces to Newtonian.
