AN ACCURATE ANALYSIS OF THERMAL WAVE PROPAGATION IN LIVING TISSUES UNDER HYPERTHERMIA TREATMENTS
Аннотация
The genesis of present research work is to develop exact
analytical solution of temperature response based on bioheat
models influenced by thermo-therapeutic applications. Till
date most of the research work has been carried out constant
initial condition (steady state) of the skin tissue. But unlike
other engineering problem skin tissue is highly non-uniform
and non-homogeneous in structure. Thus initial condition may
not be imposed as constant in living cells. In order to develop
thermal field we have opted for modified initial condition on
the basis of practical thermo-biological aspects. For the first
time we have implemented Green Function (GFs) method in
the biological heat transfer to establish the analytical solution in conjunction with variable initial condition. Both Pennes' bioheat equation (PBHE) and Thermal wave model of bioheat equation (TWMBHE) have been employed with suitable
boundary conditions. The thermal response and impact of
other thermo-biological parameters have been investigated.
The comparison of present research work based on analytical
technique with the published experimental research work has
shown well validation and accurateness of the present results.
