AB - Effect of heat and mass transfer on the blood flow through a tapered artery  with stenosis is examined assuming blood as Jeffrey fluid. The governing  equations have been modelled in cylindrical coordinates. Series solutions are  constructed for the velocity, temperature, concentration, resistance  impedance, wall shear stress and shearing stress at the stenosis throat.  Attention has been mainly focused to the analysis of embedded parameters in  converging, diverging and non-tapered situations.
