Some Aspects of Oscillatory Visco-Elastic Flow Through Porous Medium in a Rotating Porous Channel
Authors: ,
Abstract: This paper presents the study of three-dimensional flow and the injection/suction on an oscillatory flow of a visco-elastic incompressible fluid through a highly porous medium bounded between two infinite horizontal porous plates. The fluid injected with constant velocity through the lower stationary plate and is being sucked simultaneously with same constant velocity through the upper plate oscillating in its own plane about a nonzero constant mean velocity. On the basis of certain simplifying assumptions,closed form analytical solutions are therefore constructed and the important properties of the overall structure of the flow are discussed. Emphasis has been given on the effects of the visco-elastic parameter with the combination of other physical parameters.
