in the present study, mixed convection laminar flow around an adiabatic body in a lid-driven enclosure filled with nanofluid using variable thermal conductivity and variable viscosity is numerically investigated. the fluid around the body in the enclosure is a water-based nanofluid containing al2o3 nanoparticles. the vertical enclosure’s walls are maintained at constant cold temperature and the...

This paper presents an in-plane hydrodynamically reconfigurable optofluidic microlens, which is formed by the laminar flow of two streams of a low-refractive-index fluid and two streams of a high-refractive-index fluid in the two microchannels connecting to an expansion chamber where the microlens finally forms. In the expansion chamber, the stream of high-refractive-index fluid, acting as core...

Current paper is focused on transient modeling of blood flow through a tapered stenosed arteries surrounded a by solenoid under the presence of heat transfer. The oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are considered here by the Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluid (power law and Carreau-Yasuda) models. The governing equations of bio magnetic fluid flow for an incompressible, laminar, homogeneous, non-...

A laminar, two dimensional, steady boundary layer Newtonian conducting fluid flow passes over a permeable shrinking sheet in the presence of a uniform magnetic field is investigated. The governing equations have converted to ordinary nonlinear differential equations (ODE) by using appropriate similarity transformations. The main idea is to transform ODE with infinite boundary condition into oth...

Prior to the 2001 CMER pilot study, several TFW cooperators conducted independent field studies of the distribution of perennial and seasonal headwater streams (Table 1). All of the studies were conducted during the summer low flow seasons of 1998 or 2000, in part, to evaluate proposed regulatory guidelines that differentiate non-fish-bearing headwater streams on the basis of the seasonal flow ...
