Heat transfer on peristaltic flow of fourth grade fluid in inclined asymmetric channel with partial slip

In this paper, the effects of slip and heat transfer are studied on the peristaltic transport of a magnetohydrodynamic （MHD） fourth grade fluid. The governing equations are modeled and solved under the long wavelength approximation by using a regular perturbation method. Explicit expressions of solutions for the stream function, the velocity, the pressure gradient, the temperature, and the heat transfer coefficient are presented. Pumping and trapping phenomena are analyzed for increasing the slip parameter. Further, the temperature profiles and the heat transfer coefficient are observed for various increasing parameters. It is found that these parameters considerably affect the considered flow characteristics. Comparisons with published results for the no-slip case are found in close agreement.

Hybrid Effects of Thermal and Concentration Convection on Peristaltic Flow of Fourth Grade Nanofluids in an Inclined Tapered Channel: Applications of Double-Diffusivity

This article brings into focus the hybrid effects of thermal and concentration convection on peristaltic pumping of fourth grade nanofluids in an inclined tapered channel.First,the brief mathematical modelling of the fourth grade nanofluids is provided along with thermal and concentration convection.The Lubrication method is used to simplify the partial differential equations which are tremendously nonlinear.Further,analytical technique is applied to solve the differential equations that are strongly nonlinear in nature,and exact solutions of temperature,volume fraction of nanoparticles,and concentration are studied.Numerical and graphical findings manifest the influence of various physical flow-quantity parameters.It is observed that the nanoparticle fraction decreases because of the increasing values of Brownian motion parameter and Dufour parameter,whereas the behaviour of nanoparticle fraction is quite opposite for thermophoresis parameter.It is also noted that the temperature profile decreases with increasing Brownian motion parameter values and rises with Dufour parameter values.Moreover,the concentration profile ascends with increasing thermophoresis parameter and Soret parameter values.

Unsteady thin film flow of a fourth grade fluid over a vertical moving and oscillating belt

This article studies the unsteady thin film flow of a fourth grade fluid over a moving and oscillating vertical belt.The problem is modeled in terms of non-nonlinear partial differential equations with some physical conditions.Both problems of lift and drainage are studied.Two different techniques namely the adomian decomposition method(ADM)and the optimal homotopy asymptotic method(OHAM)are used for finding the analytical solutions.These solutions are compared and found in excellent agreement.For the physical analysis of the problem,graphical results are provided and discussed for various embedded flow parameters.

Blasius flow and heat transfer of fourth-grade fluid with slip

This investigation deals with the effects of slip, magnetic field, and non- Newtonian flow parameters on the flow and heat transfer of an incompressible, electrically conducting fourth-grade fluid past an infinite porous plate. The heat transfer analysis is carried out for two heating processes. The system of highly non-linear differential equations is solved by the shooting method with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method for moderate values of the parameters. The effective Broyden technique is adopted in order to improve the initial guesses and to satisfy the boundary conditions at infinity. An exceptional cross-over is obtained in the velocity profile in the presence of slip. The fourth-grade fluid parameter is found to increase the momentum boundary layer thickness, whereas the slip parameter substantially decreases it. Similarly, the non-Newtonian fluid parameters and the slip have opposite effects on the thermal boundary layer thickness.

Couette Flow Problem for an Unsteady MHD Fourth-Grade Fluid with Hall Currents

In this work, we analyze Couette flow problem for an unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fourth-grade fluid in presence of pressure gradient and Hall currents. The existing literature on the topic shows that the effect of Hall current on Couette flow of an unsteady MHD fourth-grade fluid with pressure gradient has not been investigated so far. The arising non-linear problem is solved by the homotopy analysis method (HAM) and the convergence of the obtained complex series solution is carefully analyzed. The influence of pressure number, Hartmann number, Hall parameter and fourth-grade material parameters on the unsteady velocity is discussed through plots and on local skin-friction coefficient discussed through numerical values presented in tabular form.

Thermophoresis and concentration effects in a fourth grade peristaltic flow with convective walls

In this investigation,we have studied the peristaltic fluid flow in an asymmetric channel with convective walls.Fourth grade fluid model has been utilized in view of the fact that the results of all other differential type models can be deduced as the special case.Combined effects of heat and mass transfer are considered.The thermophoresis effects occur in the energy equation.Convective heat and mass boundary conditions have been given special attention.Long wave length and low Reynolds number approximations are utilized for the simplifications.Approximate analytic solutions for the velocity,temperature and concentration profiles are calculated using perturbation technique and elaborated in the form of graphical observations for various physical quantities.
