<p>In this study, the Soret and Dufour effects in a composite stenosed artery were combined with an analysis of the effect of varying viscosity on copper nanofluids in a porous medium. Blood viscosity, which changes with temperature, is taken into account using the Reynolds viscosity model. The finite difference approach is used to quantitatively solve the governing equations. For use in medical applications, the effects of the physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration along the radial axis have been investigated and physically interpreted. The results are graphically displayed and physically defined in order to facilitate comprehension of the various phenomena that occur in the artery when nanofluid is present. It is observed that the Soret effect increases the rate of heat transfer but decreases the rate of mass transfer. The new study enhances knowledge of non-surgical treatment options for stenosis and other abnormalities, hence reducing post-operative complications.
