The effect of slip boundary conditions on the blood flow taking blood as a Casson fluid has been studied. It is observed that axial velocity, volumetric flow rate and pressure gradient decrease along the radial distance as the slip length increases but the wall shear stress increases with increase in slip length. All the results derived are presented analytically and graphically by selecting su...

This work examines the slip boundary condition by Lattice Boltzmann simulations, addresses the validity of the Navier’s hypothesis that the slip velocity is proportional to the shear rate and compares the Lattice Boltzmann simulations to the experimental results of Tretheway and Meinhart (Phys. of Fluids, 14, L9-L12). The numerical simulation models the boundary condition as the probability, P,...

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...

At the microand nanoscale, the standard continuity boundary conditions at fluid–solid interfaces of classical transport phenomena do not apply and must be replaced by boundary conditions that allow discontinuities. In this study, the classical thermal laminar boundary layer equations are studied using Lie symmetries with the no-slip boundary condition for tangential velocity and continuous temp...

This paper addresses the combined effects of couple stresses, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and slip condition on a free convective flow of a couple stress fluid induced by a vertical stretching sheet. The Cogley- Vincenti-Gilles equilibrium model is employed to include the effects of thermal radiation in the study. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a system o...

In the present study, a compact analytical model is developed to determine the pressure drop of fully-developed, incompressible, and constant properties slip-flow through arbitrary cross-section microchannels. An averaged firstorder Maxwell slip boundary condition is considered. Introducing a relative velocity, the difference between the bulk flow and the boundary velocities, the axial momentum...

A general feature of both isochemical and thermochemical studies of mantle convection is that horizontal plume velocities tend to be smaller than typical convective velocities, however, it is not clear which system leads to a greater fixity of mantle plumes. We perform twoand three-dimensional numerical calculations and compare both thermochemical and isochemical cases with similar convective v...

  Micro scale gas flows has attracted significant research interest in the last two decades. In this research, the fluid flow of gases in the stepped micro-channel at a wide range of Knudsen number has been analyzed with using the Lattice Boltzmann (MRT) method. In the model, a modified second-order slip boundary condition and a Bosanquet-type effective viscosity are used to consider the veloci...

We consider pressure-driven flows of electrolyte solutions in small channels or capillaries in which tracer particles are used to probe velocity profiles. Under the assumption that the double layer is thin compared to the channel dimensions, we show that the flow-induced streaming electric field can create an apparent slip velocity for the motion of the particles, even if the flow velocity stil...

AbstracG-The hydrodynamic boundary condition at the interface between a porous and a plain medium is examined by direct simulation of the two-dimensional flow field near the interface of a porous medium made of cylinders. The existing slip boundary condition, which contains a slip coefficient a, and the noslip boundary condition, which contains an effective viscosity p’, are examined. The depen...
