Influence of an external magnetic field on the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluid through a porous medium.

Authors

Abstract:

Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) peristaltic flow of a Couple Stress Fluid through a permeable channel is examined in this investigation. The flow analysis is performed in the presence of an External Magnetic Field. Long wavelength and low Reynolds number approach is implemented. Mathematical expressions of axial velocity, pressure gradient and volume flow rate are obtained. Pressure rise, frictional force and pumping phenomenon are portrayed and symbolized graphically. The elemental characteristics of this analysis is a complete interpretation of the influence of Couple Stress Parameter, magnetic number, non dimensional amplitude ratio and permeability parameter on the velocity, pressure gradient, pressure rise and frictional forces.

Pulsatile Flow of Couple Stress Fluid Through a Porous Medium with Periodic Body Acceleration and Magnetic Field

Pulsatile flow of blood through a porous medium has been studied under the influence of periodic body acceleration by considering blood as a couple stress, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid in the presence of magnetic field. An exact solution of the equation of motion is obtained by applying the Laplace and finite Hankel transforms. The expressions for axial velocity, flow rate, flu...

Thermal Convection in a (Kuvshiniski-type) Viscoelastic Rotating Fluid in the Presence of Magnetic Field through Porous Medium (TECHNICAL NOTE)

  The effect of magnetic field on an incompressible (Kuvshiniski-Type) viscoelastic rotating fluid heated from below in porous medium is considered. For the case of stationary convection, magnetic field and medium permeability have both stabilizing and destabilizing effect on the thermal convection under some conditions whereas rotation has a stabilizing effect on the thermal convection. In the...
