Variational Iteration Method for the Heat Transfer of a Non-Newtonian Fluid Flow in an Axisymmetric Channel with a Porous Wall
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper heat transfer of non-Newtonian fluid flow in an axisymmetric channel with porous wall is analyzed. Variational Iteration Method is used to get complete analytic solution for velocity and temperature profiles. Results show an acceptable agreement between this method results and numerical solution.Also the effects of different parameters are discussed through graphs. It can be found that Nusselt number increases as each of non-Newtonian fluid power coefficient, Reynolds number and Prandtl number increases.

Analytical study of flow field and heat transfer of a non-Newtonian fluid in an axisymmetric channel with a permeable wall
In this study, the momentum and energy equations of laminar flow of a non-Newtonian fluid are solved in an axisymmetric porous channel using the least square and Galerkin methods. The bottom plate is heated by an external hot gas, and a coolant fluid is injected into the channel from the upper plate. The arising nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are reduced to a set of coupled no...

متن کاملSlip Velocity in Flow and Heat Transfer of Non-newtonian Fluids in Microchannels
The steady-state fully-developed laminar flow of non-Newtonian power-law fluids is examined in a circular microchannel with slip boundary condition and under an imposed constant wall heat flux. Effects of slip as well as the hydrodynamic and thermal key parameters on heat transfer and entropy generation are investigated. The results reveal that increasing the Brinkman number and the flow behavi...
