Abstract
The article utilizes the fractional bioheat model in spherical coordinates to explain the transfer of heat in living tissues during magnetic hyperthermia treatment for tumors. Maintaining therapeutic temperature is crucial in magnetic fluid hyperthermia, which requires accurate estimations of power dissipation to determine the appropriate number of magnetic particles required for treatment. To address this problem, a hybrid numerical approach that combines Laplace transforms, change of variables, and modified discretization techniques is proposed in this paper. The study investigates the impact of the fractional parameter and differences in thermophysical properties between diseased and healthy tissue. The numerical temperature results are presented in a graph, and their validity is demonstrated by comparing them with previous literature.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics serves as an international publication organ for new ideas, insights and results on non-equilibrium phenomena in science, engineering and related natural systems. The central aim of the journal is to provide a bridge between science and engineering and to promote scientific exchange on a) newly observed non-equilibrium phenomena, b) analytic or numeric modeling for their interpretation, c) vanguard methods to describe non-equilibrium phenomena.
Contributions should – among others – present novel approaches to analyzing, modeling and optimizing processes of engineering relevance such as transport processes of mass, momentum and energy, separation of fluid phases, reproduction of living cells, or energy conversion. The journal is particularly interested in contributions which add to the basic understanding of non-equilibrium phenomena in science and engineering, with systems of interest ranging from the macro- to the nano-level.
The Journal of Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamics has recently expanded its scope to place new emphasis on theoretical and experimental investigations of non-equilibrium phenomena in thermophysical, chemical, biochemical and abstract model systems of engineering relevance. We are therefore pleased to invite submissions which present newly observed non-equilibrium phenomena, analytic or fuzzy models for their interpretation, or new methods for their description.
