چکیده

We consider the general problem on stationary flow of the electrorheological fluid with the constitutive equation developed in [R. H. W. Hoppe and W. G. Litvinov, Comm. Pure. Appl. Anal., 3 (2004), pp. 809–848] in the cylindrical coordinate system. The problem is studied under mixed boundary conditions wherein velocities are specified on one part of the boundary and surface forces are given on the other part. The existence of a solution to this problem and the convergence of Galerkin approximations are established. Then, we consider the occasion where the flow is axially symmetric and study a problem on an electrorheological clutch. This problem is solved numerically, and the results of calculations of the electric field and velocities are presented.

Electro-magneto-hydrodynamics Flows of Burgers' Fluids in Cylindrical Domains with Time Exponential Memory

This paper investigates the axial unsteady flow of a generalized Burgers’ fluid with fractional constitutive equation in a circular micro-tube, in presence of a time-dependent pressure gradient and an electric field parallel to flow direction and a magnetic field perpendicular on the flow direction. The mathematical model used in this work is based on a time-nonlocal constitutive equation for s...

Coupled Problems on Stationary Flow of Electrorheological Fluids under the Conditions of Nonhomogeneous Temperature Distribution

Abstract. We set up and study a coupled problem on stationary non-isothermal flow of electrorheological fluids. The problem consist in finding functions of velocity, pressure and temperature which satisfy the motion equations, the condition of incompressibility, the equation of the balance of thermal energy and boundary conditions. We introduce the notions of a P -generalized solution and gener...

AXIAL FLOW IN A ROTATIONAL COAXIAL RHEOMETER SYSTEM 1. BINGHAM PLASTIC

A mathematical analysis has been carried out for the axial flow of a Bingham plastic fluid, in the Concentric Cylinder Viscometer which consists of a cylindrical sample holder (the cup) and a cylindrical spindle (the bob) coaxial with the cup. The fluid to be tested flows through the annular gap of the cup and the bob system, sheared by the rotation of the inner cylinder, while the outer cy...

Continuous spectrum of a fourth order nonhomogeneous differential operators with variable exponent

The study of differential equations and variational problems with variable exponent has been a new and interesting topic. Its interest is widely justified with many physical examples, such as nonlinear elasticity theory, electrorheological fluids, etc. (see [1, 2]). It also has wide applications in different research fields, such as image processing model (see e.g. [3,4]), stationary thermorheo...

Flow of Electrorheological Fluids under the Conditions of Slip on the Boundary

We derive general conditions of slip of a fluid on the boundary. Under these conditions the velocity of the fluid on the immovable boundary is a function of the normal and tangential components of the force acting on the surface of the fluid. A problem on stationary flow of an electrorheological fluid in which the terms of slip are specified on one part of the boundary and surface forces are gi...
