Key Points

To mathematically formulate and evaluate the pulsatile flow characteristics of blood suspended with a volume fraction of microorganisms by modeling blood as a couple stress fluid.
Modeled blood as a non-Newtonian couple stress fluid and treated suspended microorganisms as dusty particulate phases.
Derived analytical velocity expressions for both blood and microorganism phases in the form of Bessel-Fourier series.
Formulated mathematical expressions for volumetric flow rate, apparent viscosity, and the phase lag between flow rate and pressure gradient.
Derived generalized velocity expressions reducible to steady or pulsatile flows for Newtonian and couple stress fluids in the presence or absence of microorganisms.
Established analytical formulations demonstrating the relationship between microorganism volume fraction, flow resistance, apparent viscosity, and pressure-flow phase differences.
