The unsteady and steady flow components of pulsatile flow response, to an experimentally monitored representative pressure pulse, are computed to provide fluid mechanical data for the etiology of arteriosclerosis at arterial curvature sites and for the design analysis of some extracorporeal dialysis and oxygenatory systems. The unsteady flow component of pulsatile flow in curved elastic tubes is simulated by the superposition of the first six Fourier components of a derived oscillatory flow solution of a viscous, incompressible fluid through an elastic tube of small curvature. The computer flow patterns, wall shear stress and hoop and axial stresses in the wall, due to unsteady and steady flow components of pulsatile flow response, are compared and their implications are discussed. The results show that the unsteady component yields shear stress of an order of magnitude greater than the steady flow, but the steady flow component has a greater variation in the shear stress distribution over a cross section. The steady and unsteady flow patterns are presented for several values of the tube diameters and curvature parameters typical of major arteries in the human circulatory system. The flow pattern and the stress variations could also prove useful in the design of extracorporeal systems such as dialysis machines and oxygenators.

Steady and pulsatile flows were passed through casts of human aortic bifurcations and, by means of a laser Doppler anemometer, fluid velocities were measured at selected sites near the ventral and dorsal walls. At these sites, in the vicinity of the bifurcation, the influence of secondary flow is significant and therefore an appreciation of the phasic variation of secondary flow patterns is important. Results are presented comparing the flow direction in both steady and pulsatile flow at sites in three casts. The common features of the flow at these sites were the persistence of the flow direction during the accelerating and decelerating phases of the pulsatile cycle, and the consistently smaller angle (measured from the inlet centerline) of the pulsatile flow direction as compared to the angle of the flow direction in steady flow.
