Abstract The method of integral momentum transfer relations has been extended to polymer systems with a locally nonequilibrium relaxation microstructure. The influence of the locally non-equilibrium transfer of the impulse flux on the characteristics of the development of their boundary-layer motion is analyzed.

Abstract This work examines the steady two-dimensional mixed convection boundary layer flow of non-Newtonian Carreau fluid embedded in a porous medium. The impermeable wedge is at rest over which the momentum and thermal boundary layers form due to motion of Carreau fluid with a large Reynolds number. We consider local thermal non-equilibrium for which the temperature of the solid porous medium is different from that of fluid phase, and hence, a single heat-transport equation is replaced by a two-temperature model. The governed equations for flow and heat transfer are converted into a system of ordinary differential equations using a similarity approach. It is observed that local thermal non-equilibrium effects are dominant for small interphase heat transfer rate and porosity scaled conductivity parameters. It is shown that the temperature at any location of the solid porous medium is always higher than that of fluid phase. When these parameters are increased gradually the local thermal equilibrium phase is recovered at which the temperatures of the fluid and solid are identical at each pore. Similar trend is noticed for both shear-thinning and shear-thickening fluids. The results further show that heat exchange between the fluid and solid porous medium is similar to both assisted and opposed flows and Carreau fluid. The velocity and temperature fields for the various increasing fluid index, Grashof number and permeability show that the thickness of the momentum and thermal boundary layer is thinner.

The approach to equilibrium in a non-equilibrium-dissociating boundary-layer flow along a catalytic or non-catalytic surface is treated from the standpoint of a singular perturbation problem, using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. Based on a linearized reaction rate model for a diatomic gas which facilitates closed-form analysis, a uniformly valid solution for the near equilibrium behaviour is obtained as the composite of appropriate outer and inner solutions. It is shown that, under near equilibrium conditions, the primary non-equilibrium effects are buried in a thin sublayer near the body surface that is described by the inner solution. Applications of the theory are made to the calculation of heat transfer and atom concentrations for blunt body stagnation point and high-speed flat-plate flows; the results are in qualitative agreement with the near equilibrium behaviour predicted by numerical solutions.
