Forchheimer Flow

Purpose This study aims to investigate the effect of two-dimensional Darcy-Forchheimer flow over second-grade fluid with linear stretching. Heat transfer through convective boundary conditions is taken into account. Design/methodology/approach Nonlinear coupled governing equations are tackled with a homotopy algorithm, while for numerical computation the computer software package BVPh 2.0 is used. The convergence analysis is also presented for the validation of analytical and numerical results. Findings Valuation for the impact of key parameters such as variable thermal conductivity, Dufour and Soret effects and variable magnetic field in an electrically conducted fluid on the velocity, concentration and temperature profiles are graphically illustrated. It is observed from the results that temperature distribution rises by Dufour number whereas concentration distribution rises by Soret number. The Forchheimer number and porosity parameter raise the skin friction coefficient. The permeable medium has a vital impact and can help in reining the rate of heat transfer. Practical implications The permeable medium has a vital impact and can help in reining the rate of heat transfer. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is reported for the first time.

This paper proposes a mathematical analysis of the inertial flow of an MHD second-grade non-Newtonian fluid in a ciliated channel. The two-dimensional flow is modelled under the effect of inertial forces, magnetic field and Darcy’s resistance, which make the system of partial differential equations highly non-linear. To solve the complex system of partial differential equations, the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is preferred. The HPM solutions for the velocity profile, stream function and pressure gradient are obtained using the software MATHEMATICA. The significances of the Reynolds number (due to inertial forces), Hartmann number (due to magnetic field), porosity parameter (due to Darcy’s resistance) and fluid parameters (related to the second-grade fluid) on the pressure gradient, stream function and velocity profile are discussed in detail. The pertinent parameters show that the horizontal velocity decays in the presence of a magnetic field, whereas it rises under the effect of inertial forces, Darcy’s resistance and fluid viscosity in the centre of the channel. This research indicates that, for the ciliary flow of a second-grade fluid, a favourable pressure gradient (negative pressure gradient) in the horizontal direction increases when applying a magnetic field, whereas it decreases due to the porous medium. This mathematical model can be helpful to observe ciliary activity under magnetic resonance imaging, when ciliary activity is abnormal.

Variable Suction

In this study, a novel theoretical model for three-dimensional (3D) laminar magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a non-Newtonian second-grade fluid along a plate of semi-infinite length is developed based on slightly sinusoidal transverse suction velocity. The suction velocity involves a steady distribution with a low superimposed perpendicularly varying dispersion. The strength of the uniform magnetic field is incorporated in the normal direction to the wall. The variable suction transforms the fluidic problem into a 3D flow problem because of variable suction velocity in the normal direction to the plane wall. The proposed mathematical modeling and its dynamical analysis are prescribed for the boundary layer flow keeping the magnetic effects without taking into consideration the induced magnetic field. An analytical perturbation technique is employed for the series solutions of the system of ordinary differential equations of velocity profile and pressure. Graphical illustrations are used to analyze the behavior of different proficient parameters of interest. The magnetic parameter is responsible for accelerating the main flow velocity, while controlling the cross flow velocities.
