In this paper, the flow of hydromagnetic non-Newtonian fluid under couple stresses through a porous channel is investigated using the Eyring-Powell model. The fluid is driven by an axial constant pressure gradient. Approximate solutions of the nonlinear dimensionless equations governing the fluid flow are obtained using a new modification of Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The effects of the variation of various flow parameters on both the velocity and temperature fields are deduced and discussed including surface-fluid interface friction and rate of heat transfer.

An investigation has been carried out to study entropy generation in a viscous, incompressible, and reactive fluid flowing steadily through a channel with porous materials. Approximate solutions for both velocity and temperature fields are obtained by using a rapidly convergent Adomian decomposition method (ADM). These solutions are then used to determine the heat irreversibility and Bejan number of the problem. Variations of other important fluid parameters are conducted, presented graphically, and discussed.

This paper investigates the effect of non-Newtonian material effect on the thermal stability of a reactive fluid flow through a channel saturated with porous medium by using Brinkman model. Approximate solution of the dimensionless nonlinear ordinary differential equation governing the fluid flow is obtained by using Adomian decomposition method together with special Hermite-Pad e approximant. Effects of various non-Newtonian fluid parameters on both the velocity and temperature fields are constructed and discussed.

Abstract In this study, the double Laplace Adomian decomposition method and the triple Laplace Adomian decomposition method are employed to solve one- and two-dimensional time-fractional Navier–Stokes problems, respectively. In order to examine the applicability of these methods some examples are provided. The presented results confirm that the proposed methods are very effective in the search of exact and approximate solutions for the problems. Numerical simulation is used to sketch the exact and approximate solution.

Present paper aims to analyze three-dimensional (3D) motion of an electrically conducting nanofluid past an exponentially stretching sheet. Both metal and metal oxide nanoparticles (such as Cu, Al2O3, TiO2) in the base fluid (water) are examined. Nonlinear ordinary differential systems are obtained by suitable transformations. The crux of the analysis is the development of an estimated analytical result obtained by employing the “Adomian Decomposition Method” (ADM), an approximate analytical method. Momentum and energy descriptions with prescribed boundary conditions are employed. The velocity components and temperature are analyzed. Tabulated values are organized aimed at the outcomes of skin-friction coefficients and Nusselt number. Comparison with past limiting results is shown. Finally, the outstanding outcomes of the present result are; the velocity profile with the inclusion of particle concentration and magnetic parameter decelerate significantly and Al2O3 nanoparticles are favorable for the enhancement in the rate of heat transfer.

In this work, the convective flow of heat generating hydromagnetic fluid through a leaky channel is investigated. Due to channel porosity, the asymmetrical slip conditions are imposed on both walls. The coupled dimensionless partial differential equations are reduced to a system of second-order boundary-value problems based on some flow assumptions and solved by Adomian decomposition method (ADM). Variations in velocity and temperature profiles are presented and discussed in detail. The result of the analysis revealed that increasing Hartmann number decreases the flow velocity while the slip parameters enhance the flow.

We investigate semianalytical solutions of Euler-Bernoulli beam equation by using Laplace transform and Adomian decomposition method (LADM). The deformation of a uniform flexible cantilever beam is formulated to initial value problems. We separate the problems into 2 cases: integer order for small deformation and fractional order for large deformation. The numerical results show the approximated solutions of deflection curve, moment diagram, and shear diagram of the presented method.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze magnetohydrodynamics fully developed natural convection heat-generating/absorbing slip flow through a porous medium. Adomian decomposition method was applied to find the solutions to the problem. Design/methodology/approach In this study, Adomian decomposition method was used. Findings Results show that heat generation parameter enhanced the temperature and velocity of the fluid in the annulus. Moreover, slip effect parameter increases the velocity of the fluid. Originality/value Originality is in the application of Adomian decomposition method which allowed the slip at interface.

The Ambartsumian delay equation is used in the theory of surface brightness in the Milky way. The Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is applied in this paper to solve this equation. Two canonical forms are implemented to obtain two types of the approximate solutions. The first solution is provided in the form of a power series which agrees with the solution in the literature, while the second expresses the solution in terms of exponential functions which is viewed as a new solution. A rapid rate of convergence has been achieved and displayed in several graphs. Furthermore, only a few terms of the new approximate solution (expressed in terms of exponential functions) are sufficient to achieve extremely accurate numerical results when compared with a large number of terms of the first solution in the literature. In addition, the residual error using a few terms approaches zero as the delay parameter increases, hence, this confirms the effectiveness of the present approach over the solution in the literature.

A three-dimensional computational model is developed to analyze fluid flow in a semi-porous channel. In order to understand the developing fluid flow and heat transfer process inside the semi-porous channels, the conventional Navier-Stokes equations for gas channel, and volume-averaged Navier-Stokes equations for porous media layer are adopted individually in this study. Conservation of mass, momentum and energy equations are solved numerically in a coupled gas and porous media domain in a channel using the vorticity-velocity method with power law scheme. Detailed development of axial velocity, secondary flow and temperature fields at various axial positions in the entrance region are presented. The friction factor and Nusselt number are presented as a function of axial position, and the effects of the size of porous media inside semi-porous channel are also analyzed in the present study.
