Abstract

The study of pulsatile blood flow under magnetic fields has gained significant attention due to its implications in biofluid dynamics and infection control. This research presents a mathematical investigation into the impact of magnetic fields on blood flow in the presence of microbial suspensions, considering the interaction between blood plasma, red blood cells, and microbial particles. Using magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) principles, we formulate and analyze a system of governing equations incorporating the effects of Lorentz force, viscosity variations, and microbial diffusion. The mathematical model is developed based on Navier-Stokes equations, Maxwell’s equations, and microbial transport models, accounting for the influence of an externally applied magnetic field on velocity distribution, microbial concentration, and overall flow stability. Numerical simulations are performed to explore the effect of different magnetic field strengths on blood flow resistance and microbial dynamics. The results indicate that stronger magnetic fields significantly alter velocity profiles, leading to enhanced microbial dispersion and potential reduction in infection spread. Additionally, the interaction between electromagnetic forces and microbial particles affects blood viscosity, influencing shear stress distribution within the vessels. The findings of this study provide critical insights into the role of magnetic fields in medical applications, such as magnetically guided drug delivery, infection mitigation, and targeted therapies. This research contributes to the growing field of bioelectromagnetics and medical physics, offering potential advancements in non-invasive medical treatments and controlled blood flow management.
