Abstract

The widely used bio-heat transfer equation is examined regarding its term describing the thermal effects of blood perfusion. It is demonstrated, both by physical arguments and numerical results, that the description of thermal convection by blood is inconsistent in this equation, and that results are in error by the same order of magnitude as the convective energy transport itself.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
