Peristaltic flow of a Williamson fluid in an asymmetric channel through porous medium
Peristaltic transport of a Williamson fluid in an asymmetric channel through porous medium is studied under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumptions. The nonlinear governing equations of the peristaltic flow are solved using perturbation method. The solution for the stream function is obtained by neglecting inertia and curvature effects. The velocity distribution, the volume flow rat...
متن کاملInfluence of an external magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluid through a porous medium.
Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) peristaltic flow of a Couple Stress Fluid through a permeable channel is examined in this investigation. The flow analysis is performed in the presence of an External Magnetic Field. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach is implemented. Mathematical expressions of axial velocity, pressure gradient and volume flow rate are obtained. Pressure rise, frictional f...
متن کاملNanofluid Flow in a Semi-porous Channel in the Presence of Uniform Magnetic Field
In this paper, the problem of laminar nanofluid flow in a semi-porous channel is investigated analytically using Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). This problem is in the presence of transverse magnetic field. Here, it has been attempted to show the capabilities and wide-range applications of the Homotopy Perturbation Method in comparison with the numerical method in solving such problems. The...
متن کاملPeristaltic transport of a conducting fluid through a porous medium in an asymmetric vertical channel
The study of the mechanism of peristalsis in both mechanical and physiological situations has recently become the object of scientific research. Several theoretical and experimental attempts have been made to understand peristaltic action in different situations. A review of much of the early literature is presented in an article by Jaffrin and Shapiro (5). A summary of most of the experimental...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Analysis of Nanofluid Flow with Porous Medium through Jeffery Hamel Diverging/Converging Channel
In this paper, flow and heat transfer of nanofluid through a converging or diverging channel with porous medium is investigated. The fluid constantly flows under the effect of magnetic field through the channel. The diverging/converging fluid motion is modeled using the momentum and energy equations. The influence of some parameters such as opening channel angle, Reynolds number and Darcy’s num...
