In the present paper, three non-Newtonian models for blood are used in a lattice Boltzmann flow solver to simulate non-Newtonian blood flows. Exact analytical solutions for two of these models have been derived and presented for a fully developed 2D channel flow. Original results for the use of the K–L model in addition to the Casson and Carreau–Yasuda models are reported for non-Newtonian flow simulations...
