Velocity measurements of dilute particulate suspension over and through a porous medium model

Flowing through a Porous Medium

We use Stokesian Dynamics simulations to study the microscopic motion of particles suspended in fluids passing through porous media. We construct model porous media with fixed spherical particles, and allow mobile ones to move through this fixed bed under the action of an ambient velocity field. We first consider the pore scale motion of individual suspended particles at pore junctions. The rel...

MHD Jeffrey NanoFluids Flow Over a Stretching Sheet Through a Porous Medium in Presence of Nonlinear Thermal Radiation and Heat Generation/Absorption

In this article, a numerical investigation of magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian nanofluid flow on a stretching sheet through an isotropic porous medium. The effects of both non-linear thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption were studied on distributions of velocity, temperature and concentration. On the other side, the governing partial differential equations have been transformed by u...

Effect of Exponentially Variable Viscosity and Permeability on Blasius Flow of Carreau Nano Fluid over an Electromagnetic Plate through a Porous Medium

The present investigation draws scholars' attention to the effect of exponential variable viscosity modeled by Vogel and variable permeability on stagnation point flow of Carreau Nanofluid over an electromagnetic plate through a porous medium. Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion mechanism are taken into consideration. An efficient fourth-order RK method along with shooting technique ar...

Effects of Chemical Reaction and Pressure Work on Free Convection over a Stretching Cone Embedded in a Porous Medium

Diffusion-thermo effects on MHD free convective radiative and chemically reactive boundary layer flow through a porous medium over a vertical plate

The main purpose of this work is to investigate the porous medium and diffusion-thermo effects on unsteady combined convection magneto hydrodynamics boundary layer flow of viscous electrically conducting fluid over a vertical permeable surface embedded in a high porous medium, in the presence of first order chemical reaction and thermal radiation. The slip boundary condition is applied at the p...
