Summary

The present article proposes dual-phase lag (DPL) bio-heat model in triple layer skin tissue for freezing procedure during cryosurgery with non-ideal property of tissue, metabolism and blood perfusion. The enthalpy formulation and the finite difference schemes are used to evaluate temperature distribution, solidus and liquidus interfaces in soft skin tissue during the freezing process. The effect of phase lags of heat flux and temperature gradient are also discussed in this study. It is mentioned that the different values of phase lags of heat flux and temperature gradient have important effect on temperature distribution, liquidus and solidus interfaces within the skin tissue.
