Measurements of the human blood flow curve as a function 
of temperature are reported. The blood was sampled from 
healthy donors. The measurements were made at the shear 
rates from 0.2 to 5.0 sec- 1 in the temperature range 
30-45oC. The blood flow curve was investigated 
by the nonstationary measurement method using a specially 
designed viscosimeter. An experimental study of the human 
blood flow curve at low shear rates allowed investigation 
of the temperature dependence of the Casson's model 
parameters describing it. It is shown that these parameters 
have a complicated temperature dependence that exhibits a 
specific feature at 42oC.
