Stagnation Point Flow And Heat Transfer Of A Micropolar Fluid In A Porous Medium, Hazem Ali Attia Jan 2006

Stagnation Point Flow And Heat Transfer Of A Micropolar Fluid In A Porous Medium, Hazem Ali Attia

Turkish Journal of Physics

The steady laminar flow in a porous medium of an incompressible non-Newtonian micropolar fluid impinging on a permeable flat plate with heat transfer is investigated. A numerical solution for the governing nonlinear momentum and energy equations is obtained. The effect of the porosity of the medium and the characteristics of the non-Newtonian fluid on both the flow and heat transfer is presented and discussed.


Unsteady Flow Of A Dusty Conducting Fluid Between Parallel Porous Plates With Temperature Dependent Viscosity, Hazem Ali Attia Jan 2005

Unsteady Flow Of A Dusty Conducting Fluid Between Parallel Porous Plates With Temperature Dependent Viscosity, Hazem Ali Attia

Turkish Journal of Physics

This paper studies unsteady laminar flow of dusty conducting fluid between parallel porous plates with temperature dependent viscosity. The fluid is acted upon by a constant pressure gradient and an external uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plates. The parallel plates are assumed to be porous and subjected to a uniform suction from above and injection from below. The viscosity of the fluid is assumed to vary exponentially with temperature. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are solved numerically and some important effects for the variable viscosity and the uniform magnetic field on the transient flow and heat …


Unsteady Couette Flow With Heat Transfer Considering Ion-Slip, Hazem Ali Attia Jan 2005

Unsteady Couette Flow With Heat Transfer Considering Ion-Slip, Hazem Ali Attia

Turkish Journal of Physics

The unsteady Couette flow of an electrically conducting, viscous, incompressible fluid bounded by two parallel non-conducting porous plates is studied with heat transfer taking ion-slip into consideration. An external uniform magnetic field and a uniform suction and injection are applied perpendicular to the plates while the fluid motion is subjected to a constant pressure gradient. The two plates are kept at different but constant temperatures while the Joule and viscous dissipations are included in the energy equation. The effect of ion-slip an uniform suction and injection on both the velocity and temperature distributions is examined.
