abstract

in this paper, the ritz-galerkin method in bernstein polynomial basis is applied for solving the nonlinear problem of the magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) flow of third grade fluid between the two plates. the properties of the bernstein  polynomials together with the ritz-galerkin method are used to reduce the solution of the mhd couette flow of non-newtonian fluid in a porous medium to the solution of algebraic equations.

Jeffery Hamel Flow of a non-Newtonian Fluid

This paper presents the Jeffery Hamel flow of a non-Newtonian fluid namely Casson fluid. Suitable similarity transform is applied to reduce governing nonlinear partial differential equations to a much simpler ordinary differential equation. Variation of Parameters Method (VPM) is then employed to solve resulting equation. Same problem is solved numerical by using Runge-Kutta order 4 method. A c...

Entropy generation analysis of non-newtonian fluid in rotational flow

The entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid in rotational flow between two concentric cylinders is examined when the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is revolved with a constant angular speed. The viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid is considered at the same time interdependent on temperature and shear rate. The Nahme law and Carreau equation are used to modeling dependenc...

Couette-Poiseuille Flow of Non-Newtonian Fluids in Concentric Annuli

Two types of laminar flows of non-Newtonian fluids in annuli with stationary outer cylinder are analysed from the viewpoint of existence of an exact analytical or almost exact analytical (quasisimilarity) solution relating volumetric flow rate and axial pressure gradient. The exact analytical solution is derived for the Vocadlo (RobertsonStiff) fluids when flow is caused simultaneously by the i...

Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin Method– Steady, Non-Isothermal Fluid Flow Applications

 Abstract : The meshless local Petrov-Galerkin method with unity as the weighting function has been applied to the solution of the Navier-Stokes and energy equations. The Navier-Stokes equations in terms of the stream function and vorticity formulation together with the energy equation are solved for a driven cavity flow for moderate Reynolds numbers using different point distributions. The L2-...

Unsteady MHD Flow of a Dusty Non- Newtonian Bingham Fluid Through a Circular Pipe

In this paper, the transient magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a dusty incompressible electrically conducting non-Newtonian Bingham fluid through a circular pipe is studied taking the Hall effect into consideration. A constant pressure gradient in the axial direction and an uniform magnetic field directed perpendicular to the flow direction are applied. The particle-phase is assumed to behave a...
