Generalized Newtonian Fluid Flow through a Porous Medium
We present a model for generalized Newtonian fluid flow through a porous medium. In the model the dependence of the fluid viscosity on the velocity is replaced by a dependence on a smoothed (locally averaged) velocity. With appropriate assumptions on the smoothed velocity, existence of a solution to the model is shown. Two examples of smoothing operators are presented in the appendix. A numeric...
متن کاملRadiative Free Convective Non-Newtonian Fluid Flow past a Wedge Embedded in a Porous Medium†
An isothermal boundary layer analysis is presented for the convection flow of a second-order non-Newtonian fluid past a two-dimensional wedge embedded in a non-Darcian porous medium in the presence of significant thermal radiation, surface transpiration and Eckert viscous heating. Nonsimilar numerical solutions are generated for the shear stresses and local heat transfer rates at the surface of...
متن کاملRotating Disk Flow With Heat Transfer of a Non Newtonian Fluid in Porous Medium
The steady flow of an incompressible viscous non-Newtonian fluid above an infinite rotating disk in a porous medium is studied with heat transfer. Numerical solutions of the nonlinear differential equations which govern the hydrodynamics and energy transfer are obtained. The effect of the porosity of the medium and the characteristics of the non-Newtonian fluid on the velocity and temperature d...
متن کاملMagnetohydrodynamic unsteady flow of a non - Newtonian fluid through a porous medium
In this paper, the unsteady flow of non-Newtonian fluid through a porous medium when an external magnetic field is applied is investigated. The non linear equation of motion is transformed to a similarity differential equation which is solved using the method of successive approximations. The rheological effects are shown and discussed on the velocity profile in terms of rheological parameter o...
متن کاملJeffery 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...
