In the present paper, we have studied MHD free convective two dimensional unsteady viscous incompressible flows through a porous effect bounded by an infinite vertical porous plate with constant suction. The permeability of the porous medium fluctuates in time about a constant mean, and the viscosity of fluid is assumed to vary as a linear function of temperature. The flow is permitted under th...

A numerical model is developed to simulate the transport phenomena in the flow channel between parallel plates with porous and non-porous (or impermeable) walls. The continuity and momentum equations were solved first, assuming the wall Reynolds number in the range of with the suction or injection of air at a speed equal to the uniform inlet velocity. The results show that at constant inlet and...

natural convection between vertical parallel plates occurs frequently in applications such as solar collectors and cooling of electronic instruments. the problem is a two dimensional developing buoyant flow. in this work, the two dimensional conservation equations are solved numerically for constant wall temperature and constant wall heat flux. the results for the local nusselt number at the du...

Abstract. In this paper, a Cascaded Lattice Boltzmann Method with second order slip boundary conditions is developed to study gas flows in a microchannel in the slip and transition flow regimes with a wide range of Knudsen numbers. For the first time the effect of wall confinement is considered on the effective mean free path of the gas molecules using a function with nonconstant Bosanquet para...

We study the low energy effective action S of gravity, induced by integrating out gauge and matter fields, in a general class of RS-type string compactification scenarios with exponential warp factors. Our method combines dimensional reduction with the holographic map between between 5-d supergravity and 4-d large N field theory. Using the classical supergravity approximation, we derive a flow ...
