A Study on the Effect of Metabolic Heat Generation on Biological Tissue Freezing

The effect of metabolic heat generation on the freezing of biological tissue has been studied. Quasi-steady approximation is used to solve the Pennes bioheat equation in tissues. Temperature profile and motion of freezing interfaces are obtained for different values of metabolic heat generation. It...
