Abstract
Mass transport and diffusion processes of a substance dissolved in the blood are studied. A linearization procedure over the steady state solution is carried out and an asymptotic analysis is used to study the influence of a small curvature with respect to the straight tube. Numerical results show the characteristics of the long wave propagation and the role played by the curvature on the solute distribution.File in questo prodotto:
