Flow Through

The viscous fluid flow past a semi-infinite porous solid, which is proportionally sheared at one boundary with the possibility of the fluid slipping according to Navier’s slip or second order slip, is considered here. Such an assumption takes into consideration several of the boundary conditions used in the literature, and is a generalization of them. Upon introducing a similarity transformation, the governing equations for the problem under consideration reduces to a system of nonlinear partial differential equations. Interestingly, we were able to obtain an exact analytical solution for the velocity, though the equation is nonlinear. The flow through the porous solid is assumed to obey the Brinkman equation, and is considered relevant to several applications.

Gaseous Oxidant

The governing equations of thermal ignition are analyzed for porous solid fuel, such as coal, of various two-dimensional and axisymmetric geometries by the Laplace asymptotic method. Mass diffusion of the gaseous oxidant through the porous fuel is included. The nonlinear partial differential equations of energy and mass balances in time-space coordinates containing the Arrhenius volumic chemical reaction terms are analyzed. By employing the Laplace asymptotic technique and by invoking a certain limit theorem, the governing equations are reduced to a first order ordinary differential equation governing the fuel surface temperature, which is readily solved numerically. Detailed discussion of the effects of the various governing parameters on ignition is presented. Because of the basically closed-form nature of the solutions obtained, many general and fundamental aspects of the ignition criteria hitherto unknown are found.

Out Of Plane

This paper investigates the free out of plane vibration of a rotating nonhomogeneous beam with nonlinear spring and mass system. The effect of nonhomogeneity of the beam appears both in the governing equations and in the boundary conditions, but the nonlinear spring-mass effect appears in the boundary conditions only. The solution is obtained by applying the method of multiple time scales directly to the nonlinear partial differential equations and the boundary conditions. The results of the linear frequencies match well with those obtained in open literature. The effect of the nonhomogeneity of the stiffer beam (β=0.01) reduces the frequencies of vibration of the beam. A possible physical explanation of this reduced frequency of the nonhomogeneous beam is discussed. A subsequent nonlinear study of the nonhomogeneous beam indicates that the mass of the spring and its location also have a pronounced effect on the vibration of the beam. The effect of the nonhomogeneity of the beam on the relative stability of the nonlinear vibration of the beam with spring-mass system is also studied.

This study aims to explore the biological flow mechanisms in a diseased curved artery during the flow of nano-Bingham–Papanastasiou fluid. The occurrence of stenosis and aneurysm is common in the arterial system, caused by narrowing or dilation of arteries owing to the development of abnormal tissues such as atherosclerotic plaques. The growth of these cells into the lumen of the artery disturbs the flow through the artery. For the treatments of hematological diseases and manufacturing nanoscale biomedical devices, nanofluids are very effective and gaining a lot of attention. In this study, Buongiorno’s nanofluid model is used for nanoscale effects and Bingham–Papanastasiou fluid is employed to study the hemodynamic rheology. An appropriate geometric expression is formulated to project two diseased segments in a curved artery. The coupled nonlinear partial differential equations are formulated for the case of mild stenosis. To solve the governing equations, an explicit finite difference scheme is used. The biological flow mechanisms are depicted through graphs, and flow patterns are presented for important flow parameters.

Flow Through

The flow of a liquid through a tube deformed by a piezoelectric cell under a harmonic law is studied in this paper. Linear deformations are compared for the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the contact surface of the tube and piezoelectric element. The flow of fluid through a deformed channel for two flow regimes is investigated: in a tube with one closed end due to deformation of the tube; for a tube with two open ends due to deformation of the tube and the differential pressure applied to the channel. The flow rate of the liquid is calculated as a function of the frequency of the deformations, the pressure drop and the physical parameters of the liquid.

Abstract Free vibrations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were studied. Based on the Flügge shell theory, the governing equations of rotating cylindrical shells with distributed springs were derived under typical boundary conditions. Multicomponent modal functions were used to satisfy the distributed springs around the circumference. The natural responses were analyzed using the Galerkin method. The effects of parameters, rotation speed, stiffness, and ratios of thickness/radius and length/radius, on natural response were also examined.

AbstractThe present communication presents a theoretical study of blood flow through a stenotic artery with a porous wall comprising Brinkman and Darcy layers. The governing equations describing the flow subjected to the boundary conditions have been solved analytically under the low Reynolds number and mild stenosis assumptions. Some special cases of the problem are also presented mathematically. The significant effects of the rheology of blood and porous wall of the artery on physiological flow quantities have been investigated. The results reveal that the wall shear stress at the stenotic throat increases dramatically for the thinner porous wall (i.e. smaller values of the Brinkman and Darcy regions) and the rate of increase is found to be 18.46% while it decreases for the thicker porous wall (i.e. higher values of the Brinkman and Darcy regions) and the rate of decrease is found to be 10.21%. Further, the streamline pattern in the stenotic region has been plotted and discussed.

As it is known, the Womersley function models velocity as a function of radius and time. It has been widely used to simulate the pulsatile blood flow through circular ducts. In this context, the present study is focused on the introduction of a simple function as an approximation of the Womersley function in order to evaluate its accuracy. This approximation consists of a simple quadratic function, suitable to be implemented in most commercial and non-commercial computational fluid dynamics codes, without the aid of external mathematical libraries. The Womersley function and the new function have been implemented here as boundary conditions in OpenFOAM ESI software (v.1906). The discrepancy between the obtained results proved to be within 0.7%, which fully validates the calculation approach implemented here. This approach is valid when a simplified analysis of the system is pointed out, in which flow reversals are not contemplated.
