Peristaltic Flow of Couple Stress Fluid in a Non-Uniform Rectangular Duct Having Compliant Walls
The present study investigates the peristaltic flow of couple stress fluid in a non-uniform rectangular duct with compliant walls. Mathematical modeling is based upon the laws of mass and linear momentum. Analytic solutions are carried out by the eigen function expansion method under long-wavelength and low-Reynolds number approximations. The features of the flow characteristics are analyzed by...
متن کاملPeristaltic motion of a Carreau fluid in an asymmetric channel
Peristaltic transport of a fluid in channels has been a subject of great interest for the last four decades. Such interest is motivated by several applications of peristaltic flows in engineering and industry. In animals and human bodies, the physiological fluids pumped by the muscular oscillations which correspond to peristaltic activity. In particular, the flow of blood through arteries and v...
متن کاملPeristaltic Transport of Carreau-Yasuda Fluid in a Curved Channel with Slip Effects
The wide occurrence of peristaltic pumping should not be surprising at all since it results physiologically from neuro-muscular properties of any tubular smooth muscle. Of special concern here is to predict the rheological effects on the peristaltic motion in a curved channel. Attention is focused to develop and simulate a nonlinear mathematical model for Carreau-Yasuda fluid. The progressive w...
متن کاملAnalysis of Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer in a Rectangular Duct with Staggered Baffles
This computational fluid dynamic analysis attempts to simulate the incompressible steady fluid flow and heat transfer in a solar air channel with wall-mounted baffles. Two ꞌSꞌ-shaped baffles, having different orientations, i.e., ꞌSꞌ-upstream and ꞌSꞌ-downstream, were inserted into the channel and fixed to the top and bottom walls of the channel in a periodically staggered manner to develop vorti...
متن کاملInfluence of Lateral Walls on Peristaltic Flow of a Couple Stress Fluid in a Non-Uniform Rectangular Duct
In the present investigation we have studied the peristaltic flow of a couple stress fluid in a non-uniform rectangular duct. The flow is investigated in a wave frame of reference moving with the velocity c away from the fixed frame. The peristaltic waves propagating on the horizontal side walls of a non-uniform rectangular duct is studied under lubrication approach. The exact solutions of velo...
