We apply a recent extension of the Hele-Shaw scheme to analyze steady compressible viscous flows through micro T-junctions. The linearity of the problem in terms of an appropriately defined quadratic form of the pressure facilitates the definition of the viscous resistance of the configuration, relating the gas mass-flow rate to entrance and exit conditions. Furthermore, under rather mild restr...

The equations governing the flow of an electrically conducting, incompressible viscous fluid over an infinite flat plate in the presence of a magnetic field are investigated using the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) with Padé approximants (PA) and 4 order Runge–Kutta method (4RKM). Approximate analytical and numerical solutions for the velocity field and heat transfer are obtained and compar...

The present paper deals with a steady two-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid over a shrinking sheet in the presence of uniform transverse magnetic field with viscous dissipation. Using suitable similarity transformations the governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically by...

Laminar free convection flow of viscous, incompressible fluid with variable viscosity and viscous dissipation through two horizontal parallel walls embedded in a porous medium is studied. Arrhenius model is used in which the variable viscosity is used to be decreasing exponentially with temperature. An approximation technique is defined to obtain the solution of the coupled non-linear equations...

The unsteady Couette flow through a porous medium of a viscous, incompressible fluid bounded by two parallel porous plates is studied with heat transfer. A uniform suction and injection are applied perpendicular to the plates while the fluid motion is subjected to an exponential decaying pressure gradient. The two plates are kept at different but constant temperatures while the viscous dissipat...

We study the flow of an incompressible viscous fluid through a long tube with compliant walls. The flow is governed by a given time dependent pressure head difference. The Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible viscous fluid are used to model the flow, and the Navier equations for a curved, linearly elastic membrane to model the wall. Employing the asymptotic techniques typically used in...
