The second-grade flows through a microtube with wall slip are solved by Laplace transform technique. The effects of rarefaction and elastic coefficient are considered with an unsteady flow through a microtube for a given but arbitrary inlet volume flow rate with time. Five cases of inlet volume flow rate are as follows: (1) trapezoidal piston motion, (2) constant acceleration, (3) impulsively started flow, (4) impulsively blocked fully developed flow, and (5) oscillatory flow. The results obtained are compared to those solutions under no-slip and slip condition.

In this paper we give a procedure to obtain analytical solutions for unsteady laminar flow in an infinitely long pipe with circular cross section, and in an infinitely long two-dimensional channel, created by an arbitrary but given volume flow rate with time. In the literature, solutions have been reported when the pressure gradient variation with time is prescribed but not when the volume flow rate variation is. We present some examples: (a) the flow rate has a trapezoidal variation with time, (b) impulsively started flow, (c) fully developed flow in a pipe is impulsively blocked, and (d) starting from rest the volume flow rate oscillates sinusoidally.

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and rotating flow of second-grade fluid over a suddenly moved flat plate is investigated, where the second-grade fluid saturates the porous medium. The new exact solution is derived by using the Fourier sine and Laplace transforms. Many interesting available results in the literature are obtained as limiting cases of our solution. Finally, some graphical results are presented for different values of the material constants.
