The magnetohydrodynamic flow of blood has been the con-
cern in this study. The solution to the nonlinear equations that
govern the flow is obtained by using perturbation analysis and
by developing a suitable numerical method. Analytical solu-
tions for the hydrodynamic case, disregarding inertia effects
and fluid viscosity can be obtained as a limiting case by choos-
ing M ¼ 0;Re ¼ 0 and / ¼ 1 ¼ 2 ¼ 0
