Mathematical Modeling for Laminar Flow of Power Law Fluid in Porous Media
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the macroscopic equations for laminar power-law fluid flow is obtained for a porous medium starting from traditional equations (Navier-Stokes). Then, the volume averaging is applied in traditional transport equations with the power-law fluid model. This procedure leads to macroscopic transport equations set for nonNewtonian fluid.

This paper presents a mathematical model for transient flow of the non-Newtonian power-law fluid in double porous media and fractal reservoir.

متن کاملAnalytical 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...
