From: Calculation of arterial wall temperature in atherosclerotic arteries: effect of pulsatile flow, arterial geometry, and plaque structure

Figure 10

Variation over time of plaque/lumen temperature measured at four different points along the interface for the bending artery. This figure indicates temperature changes produced by variations in the macrophage thickness d mp . The inlet velocity profile for this arterial geometry is given in Figure 2a, the points where the temperature is recorded correspond to points A through D, located as indicated in Figure 3.
