چکیده

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of third grade nanofluid between coaxial porous cylinders was investigated in this work. Two types of series solutions were presented for constant and variable viscosity. The resulting nonlinear coupled equations were solved by employing homotopy analysis method (HAM). The convergence of the series solutions has been discussed explicitly. The recurrence formulae for finding the coefficients were also given. Comparison with the existing studies was made and the role of pertinent parameters was graphically illustrated at the end.

Series solutions for magnetohydrodynamic flow of non- Newtonian nanofluid and heat transfer in coaxial porous cylinder with slip conditions

A study on the flow of non-Newtonian nanofluid between two coaxial cylinders is made. Two types of series solutions are constructed by choosing constant and variable viscosity. The effects of heat transfer analysis on nanoparticles in the presence of magnetohydrodynamics, porosity and partial slip are also examined. To drive the solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems, we have used a rec...

A Computational Approach to the Flow of Walter’s Liquid B′ through Annulus of Coaxial Porous Circular Cylinders for High Suction Parameter (RESEARCH NOTE)

The present investigation studies the behavior of steady flow of visco-elastic liquid between two porous coaxial circular cylinders, where both the cylinders are rotating with different uniform angular velocities about the common axis. In addition, the inner cylinder has uniform velocity along the axis and the visco-elastic fluid, which is a Walters liquid B′, is allowed to flow in the annulus....
