This study intends to semi-analytically investigate the steady 3D boundary layer flow of a SiC-TiO2/DO hybrid nanofluid over a porous spinning disk subject to a constant vertical magnetic field. Here, the novel attitude to single-phase hybrid nanofluid model corresponds to considering nanoparticles and base fluid masses to compute solid equivalent volume fraction, solid equivalent de...

high weissenberg boundary layer flow of viscoelastic fluids on a stretching surface has been studied. the flow is considered to be steady and two dimensional. flows of viscoelastic liquids at high weissenberg number exhibit stress boundary layers near walls. these boundary layers are caused by the memory of the fluid. upon proper scaling and by means of an exact similarity transformation, the n...

When a laminar boundary layer separates because of an adverse streamwise pressure gradient, the flow is subject to increased instability with respect to smallamplitude disturbances. Laminar–turbulent transition occurs under a rapid three-dimensional (3D) development within the separated shear layer. When the following turbulent boundary layer reattaches, a laminar separation bubble is formed. T...

In this paper, we propose a dimension splitting method for NavierStokes equations(NSEs). The main idea is as follows. The domain of flow in 3D is decomposed into several thin layers. In each layer, The 3D NSEs can be represented as the sum of a membrane operator and a normal (bending) operator on the boundary of layer. And The Euler central difference is used to approximate the bending operator...

Swifts are aerodynamically sophisticated birds with a small arm and large hand wing that provides them with exquisite control over their glide performance. However, their hand wings have a seemingly unsophisticated surface roughness that is poised to disturb flow. This roughness of about 2% chord length is formed by the valleys and ridges of overlapping primary feathers with thick protruding ra...

in this paper, a viscous flow simulation is presented using the lattice boltzmann equation (lbe). a finite volume approach is adapted to discretize the lbe on a cell-centered, arbitrary shaped, rectangular tessellation. the formulation includes upwind scheme and high order descretization schemes for the flux term and collision operator respectively. a consistent open and solid boundary treatmen...

‎In the present analysis‎, ‎we study the boundary layer flow of an incompressible viscous fluid near the two-dimensional stagnation-point flow over a stretching surface‎. ‎The effects of variable thickness and radiation are also taken into account and assumed that the sheet is non-flat‎. ‎Using suitable transformations‎, ‎the governing partial differential equations are first converted to ordin...
