The method of matched asymptotic expansions is used in the present paper to derive an approximate solution for transient flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in an annulus. The transient is caused by a sudden reduction of flow rate to zero. The laminar flow before deceleration can be either steady or unsteady but unidirectional. The solution is valid for short time intervals after sudden deceleration.

The flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in a circular tube generated by a sudden impulse on the axis is studied on the basis of the linearized Navier–Stokes equations. A no-slip boundary condition is assumed to hold on the wall of the tube. At short time the flow is irrotational and may be described by a potential which varies with the square root of time. At later times there is a sequence of moving and decaying vortex rings. At long times the flow velocity decays with an algebraic long-time tail. The impulse generates a time-dependent pressure difference between the ends of the tube.

Slow flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a slender body of circular crosssection is treated by the method of matched asymptotic expansions. The main result is an integral equation for the force per unit length exerted on the body by the fluid. The novelty is that the body is permitted to twist and dilate in addition to undergoing the translating, bending and stretching, which have been considered by others. The method of derivation is relatively simple, and the resulting integral equation does not involve the limiting processes which occur in the previous work.

In the present investigation, problem of heat transfer has been studied during peristaltic motion of a viscous incompressible fluid for two-dimensional nonuniform channel with permeable walls under long wavelength and low Reynolds number approximation. Expressions for pressure, friction force, and temperature are obtained. The effects of different parameters on pressure, friction force, and temperature have been discussed through graphs.
