Analysis of peristaltic flow of Jeffrey six constant nano fluid in a vertical non-uniform tube

Peristaltic flow of non-Newtonian nano fluid through a non-uniform surface has been investigated in this paper. The fluid motion along the wall of the surface is caused by the sinusoidal wave traveling with constant speed. The governing equations are converted into cylindrical coordinate system and assuming low Reynolds number and long wave length partial differential equations are simplified. Analytically solutions of the problem are obtained by utilizing the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). In order to insight the impact of embedded parameters on temperature, concentration and velocity some graphs are plotted for different peristaltic waves. At the end, some observations were made from the graphical presentation that velocity, pressure rise and nano particle concentration are increasing function of thermophoresis parameter N_t while temperature and frictional forces show opposite trend.

Hydromagnetic Blood Flow of Sisko Fluid in a Non-uniform Channel Induced by Peristaltic Wave

In this paper, a smooth repetitive oscillating wave traveling down the elastic walls of a non-uniform twodimensional channels is considered. It is assumed that the fluid is electrically conducting and a uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to flow. The Sisko fluid is grease thick non-Newtonian fluid can be considered equivalent to blood. Taking long wavelength and low Reynolds number, the equations are reduced. The analytical solution of the emerging non-linear differential equation is obtained by employing Homotopy Perturbation Method(HPM). The outcomes for dimensionless flow rate and dimensionless pressure rise have been computed numerically with respect to sundry concerning parameters amplitude ratio ?, Hartmann number M, and Sisko fluid parameter b1. The behaviors for pressure rise and average friction have been discussed in details and displayed graphically. Numerical and graphical comparison of Newtonian and non-Newtonian has also been evaluated for velocity and pressure rise. It is observed that the magnitude of pressure rise is maximum in the middle of the channel whereas for higher values of fluid parameter it increases. Further, it is also found that the velocity profile shows converse behavior along the walls of the channel against multiple values of fluid parameter.

Computation of three-dimensional Brinkman flows using regularized methods

The Brinkman equations of fluid motion are a model of flows in a porous medium. We develop the exact solution of the Brinkman equations for three-dimensional incompressible flow driven by regularized forces. Two different approaches to the regularization are discussed and compared on test problems. The regularized Brinkman model is also applied to the unsteady Stokes equation for oscillatory flows since the latter leads to the Brinkman equations with complex permeability parameter. We provide validation studies of the method based on the flow and drag of a solid sphere translating in a Brinkman medium and the flow inside a cylindrical channel of circular cross-section. We present a numerical example of a swimming organism in a Brinkman flow which shows that the maximum swimming speed is obtained with a small but non-zero value of the porosity. We also demonstrate that unsteady Stokes flows with oscillatory forcing fall within the same framework and are computed with the same method by applying it to the motion of the oscillating feeding appendage of a copepod.     

Entropy of AC electro-kinetics for blood mediated gold or copper nanoparticles as a drug agent for thermotherapy of oncology

Nanoparticles play a radical role in oncology treatment especially nanoparticles of gold (Au NPs). Among the substantial properties of Au NPs is the possession of a large atomic number, which helps in the treatment of tumors. Furthermore, it is employed to encapsulate large numbers of therapeutic compounds. Also, the alternating electric field therapy (AC electro-kinetics, called tumor treating fields TTF), is used in malignancy oncology therapy (MOT). The aim of this article is to investigate the blood flow characteristics under the influence of AC electric field and heat transfer in the presence of Au and Cu-NPs through a symmetric elastic sinusoidal channel. The governing equations of the Jeffrey fluid (blood model) along with total mass, thermal energy, and the electric potential equations are simplified by using the postulate of long wavelength approximation. The expressions of the axial velocity field, stream function, pressure gradient, the temperature distribution, and the electric potential field are obtained by using DSolve program in Mathematica software (version 10). Influence of the materialistic parameters like the Jeffrey parameter, volume fraction, Grashof number, and electric Rayleigh number on the velocity profile, temperature distribution, electrical potential, pressure gradient, pressure rise, and entropy generation are considered. Two different nanofluid suspensions are investigated (Au and Cu NPs). The results pointed out that the Au-NPs are efficacious for drug carrying and drug delivery systems, this is evidenced by the velocity in the case of Au-NPs greater than in the case of Cu-NPs. Also, when the electrical Raleigh number increases, an electric force is generated to reverse the wave propagation.

Effect of coiling in a cochlear model

Transformation of the three-dimensional equations of fluid motion into cylindrical coordinates allowed analysis of a coiled cochlear model by the WKB technique. The model includes a single transverse mode of basilar membrane deflection and inviscid fluid. The results calculated using realistic parameters for the guinea pig show no significant difference in the basilar membrane amplitude and phase between the straight and coiled models. Some differences exist in the fluid pressure found in the scala. The conclusion is that the macromechanical response is not significantly affected by coiling.

The velocity and induced magnetic field profiles are sketched as functions of time, Hartmann number, and magnetic Prandtl number. The velocity decreases with increase in couple stress parameter.     

An approximate global solution of Einstein’s equations for a rotating finite body

We obtain an approximate global stationary and axisymmetric solution of Einstein’s equations which can be considered as a simple star model: a self-gravitating perfect fluid ball with constant mass density rotating in rigid motion. Using the post-Minkowskian formalism (weak-field approximation) and considering rotation as a perturbation (slow-rotation approximation), we find second-order approximate interior and exterior (asymptotically flat) solutions to this problem in harmonic and quo-harmonic coordinates. In both cases, interior and exterior solutions are matched, in the sense of Lichnerowicz, on the surface of zero pressure to obtain a global solution. The resulting metric depends on three arbitrary constants: mass density, rotational velocity and the star radius at the non-rotation limit. The mass, angular momentum, quadrupole moment and other constants of the exterior metric are determined by these three parameters. It is easy to check that Kerr’s metric cannot be the exterior part of that metric.     

Instability of single-walled carbon nanotubes conveying Jeffrey fluid

We report instability of the single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNT) filled with non-Newtonian Jeffrey fluid.Our objective is to get the influences of relaxation time and retardation time of the Jeffrey fluid on the vibration frequency and the decaying rate of the amplitude of carbon nanotubes.An elastic Euler-Bernoulli beam model is used to describe vibrations and structural instability of the carbon nanotubes.A new vibration equation of an SWCNT conveying Jeffrey fluid is first derived by employing Euler-Bernoulli beam equation and Cauchy momentum equation taking constitutive relation of Jeffrey fluid into account.The complex vibrating frequencies of the SWCNT are computed by solving a cubic eigenvalue problem based upon differential quadrature method(DQM).It is interesting to find from computational results that retardation time has significant influences on the vibration frequency and the decaying rate of the amplitude.Especially,the vibration frequency decreases and critical velocity increases with the retardation time.That is to say,longer retardation time makes the SWCNT more stable.     

Thermal radiation effects on Williamson fluid flow due to an expanding/contracting cylinder with nanomaterials: Dual solutions

The phenomena of heat and mass transfer during the flow of non-Newtonian transfer are amongst the core subjects in mechanical sciences. Recently, the nanomaterials are among the eminent tools for improving the low thermal conductivity of working fluids. Therefore, in view of the existing contributions, this article presents a two-dimensional numerical simulation for the transient flow of a non-Newtonian nanofluid generated by an expanding/contracting circular cylinder. This critical review further explores the impacts of variable magnetic field, thermal radiation, velocity slip and convective boundary conditions. The basic governing equations for Williamson fluid flow are formulated with the assistance of boundary layer approximations. The non-dimensional form of partially coupled ordinary differential equations has been tackled numerically by utilizing versatile Runge–Kutta integration scheme. The momentum, thermal and concentration characteristics are investigated with respect to several critical parameters, like, Weissenberg number, unsteadiness parameter, viscosity ratio parameter, slip parameter, suction parameter, magnetic parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Brownian motion parameter, Prandtl number, Lewis number and Biot number. The outcomes of the systematic reviews of these parameters and forest plots are illustrated. The study reveals that multiple solutions for the considered problem occurs for diverse values of involved physical parameters. The computed results indicate that the friction and heat transfer coefficients are significantly raised by the magnetic parameter for upper branch solutions.

Second law analysis of the flow of two immiscible micropolar fluids between two porous beds

This work investigates the effect of entropy generation rate within the flow of two immiscible micropolar fluids in a horizontal channel bounded by two porous beds at the bottom and top. The flow is considered in four zones. Zone IV contains the flow of viscous fluid in the large porous bed at the bottom, zone I and zone II contain the free flow of two immiscible micropolar fluids, and zone III contains the flow of viscous fluid in the thin porous bed at the top. The flow is assumed to be governed by Eringen’s micropolar fluid flow equations in the free channel. Darcy’s law and Brinkman’s model are used for flow in porous zones, namely, zone IV and zone III, respectively. The closed form expressions for entropy generation number and Bejan number are derived in dimensionless formby using the expressions of velocity, microrotation and temperature. The effect of physical parameters like a couple stress parameter and micropolarity parameter on velocity, microrotation, temperature, entropy generation number and Bejan number are investigated.

The numerical solutions for a constant temperature boundary are also shown and discussed.     

Input power flow in a submerged infinite cylindrical shell with doubly periodic supports

A submerged cylindrical shell reinforced by supports of rings and bulkheads is the primary structure of submarine, torpedo and all kinds of submerged aircrafts, so it is significant to study its characteristics of structure-borne sound. By means of periodic structure theory, the input power flow from a cosine harmonic line force into a submerged infinite cylindrical shell, reinforced by doubly periodic supports of rings and bulkheads, is studied analytically. The harmonic motion of the shell and the sound pressure field in the fluid are described by Flügge shell equations and Helmholtz equation, respectively. Since the fluid radical velocity and the shell radical velocity must be equal at the interface of the outer shell wall and the fluid, the motion equations of this coupled system are obtained. Both four kinds of forces (moments) between rings and shell and four kinds of forces (moments) between bulkheads and shell are considered. The solution is obtained in series form by expanding the system responses in terms of the space harmonics of the spacings of both stiffeners and bulkheads. The input vibrational power flow into the structure is obtained and the influences of different structural parameters on the results are analyzed. The analytic model is close to engineering practice, and it will give some guidelines for noise reduction of this kind of shell.     

Study on blood flow containing nanoparticles through porous arteries in presence of magnetic field using analytical methods

In this paper, flow analysis for a third grade non-Newtonian blood in porous arteries in presence of magnetic field is simulated analytically and numerically. Blood is considered as the third grade non-Newtonian fluid containing nanoparticles. Collocation Method (CM) and Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM) are used to solve the Partial Differential Equation (PDE) governing equation which a good agreement between them was observed in the results. The influences of the some physical parameters such as Brownian motion parameter, pressure gradient and thermophoresis parameter, etc. on temperature, velocity and nanoparticles concentration profiles are considered. For instance, increasing the thermophoresis parameter (N_t) caused an increase in temperature values in whole domain and an increase in nanoparticles concentration near the inner wall.
