Abstract:
In this paper, dual-phase-lag bioheat transfer model subjected to Fourier and non-Fourier boundary conditions for bi-layer tissues has been solved using finite element Legendre wavelet Galerkin method (FELWGM) during magnetic fluid hyperthermia. FELWGM localizes small scale variation of solution and fast switching of functional bases. It has been observed that moderate hyperthermia temperature range (41-46°C) can be better achieved in spherical symmetric coordinate system and treatment method will be independent of the Fourier and non-Fourier boundary conditions used. The effect of phase-lag times has been observed only in tumor region. FCC FePt magnetic nano-particle produces more effective treatment with respect to other magnetic nano-particles. The effect of variability of magnetic heat source parameters (magnetic induction, frequency, diameter of magnetic nano-particles, volume fractional of magnetic nano-particles and ligand layer thickness) has been investigated. The physical property of these parameters has been described in detail during magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH) treatment and also discussed the clinical application of MFH in Oncology.

Conduction, accounting for approximately 3% of body heat loss at rest, is the process of exchanging heat between molecules of two materials in direct contact. This can result in both heat loss and gain. For instance, when the body is submerged in water, which conducts heat 20 times more effectively than air, it can either lose or gain significant...
