An analysis has been carried out to obtain the free convective heat and mass transfer characteristics of an incompressible MHD viscoelastic fluid flow immersed in a porous medium of variable permeability bounded by an infinite porous vertical plate in slip flow regime in the presence of a transverse magnetic field with heat source and radiation effects. The permeability of the porous medium dec...

this paper discusses different important gas permeation models such as “maxwell”, “bruggeman”, “lewis-neilson”, and “pal” models to predict “mixed matrix membranes” (mmms) performance. the main parameter considered and discussed is the permeability of hydrogen on carbon nanotubes (cnts)-mmm. for evaluation of the theoretical models, experimental data of permeability for h2 were compared to the ...

The present analysis deals with the dispersion characteristics of blood described as HerschelBulkley fluid in capillary with permeable walls for fluid and impermeable for the nanoparticles. The contribution of molecular and convective diffusion is recalled from the Taylor and Aris coefficient of diffusion. The effective longitudinal diffusion depends on three parameters namely rheological param...

zein is one of the best biopolymer for edible film making and sugars are natural plasticizers for biopolymers. in this research, sugars (fructose, galactose and glucose) at three levels (0.5, 0.7, 1 g/g of zein) were used as plasticizers for zein protein films and their water vapor permeability (wvp), oxygen permeability (op) and atomic force microscopy (afm) topography were studied. the pure z...

In this paper, a simplified model of an incompressible fluid flow along with heat and mass transfer past a porous flat plate embedded in a Darcy type porous medium is investigated. The velocity, thermal and mass slip conditions are utilized that has not been discussed in the literature before. The similarity transformations are used to transform the governing partial differential equations (PDE...

Permeability is an overarching mechanical parameter encompassing the effects of porosity, pore size, and interconnectivity of porous structures. This parameter directly influences transport of soluble particles and indirectly regulates fluid pressure and velocity in tissue engineering scaffolds. The permeability also contributes to the viscoelastic behavior of visco-porous material under loadin...

A model for determining the permeability of fractural porous media based on the double percolation model is presented. The results are close to that by fractural permeability tensor model. The non-uniformity of the permeability and the pore pressure are investigated by parameter study. It is shown that rocks could be divided into “pore-controlling” permeability and “fracture-controlling” permea...

This work studies the mixed convection heat transfer from a vertical plate in bidisperse porous media with constant wall temperature. The two-velocity two-temperature model is used to derive the governing equations. The effects of the mixed convection parameter, the inter-phase heat transfer parameter, the modified thermal conductivity ratio, and the permeability ratio on the heat transfer and ...

This paper discusses different important gas permeation models such as “Maxwell”, “Bruggeman”, “Lewis-Neilson”, and “Pal” models to predict “Mixed Matrix Membranes” (MMMs) performance. The main parameter considered and discussed is the permeability of Hydrogen on Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs)-MMM. For evaluation of the theoretical models, experimental data of permeability for H2 were compa...
