Mathematical model has been developed to protect fluid and solid particle homogeneous mixture velocity concentration and temperature for a heated horizontal flat plate. Conversation equation based on Eulerian scale are approximated for small relaxation times through stream function and similarity transformations. Parametric database generated through computer program for arbitrary constants on comparison with clear fluid reveals the particle concentration has pronounced effect on velocity and temperature profiles.

The present article gives a ray of light on the effects of magnetic field on an unsteady mixed convection flow of nanofluids containing nanoparticles which are spherical and cylindrical in nature. The unsteadiness in the flow is mainly caused by time dependent stretching velocity and temperature of the sheet at the surface. The governing transportation equations are first transformed into ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and then solved by employing Runga–Kutta–Frelberg method with shooting technique. The influence of various parameters on velocity and temperature profiles as well as wall shear stress and the rate of mass transfer are discussed through graphs and tables. The results for regular fluid (water) from the study are in excellent agreement with the results reported in the literature.

Abstract In area affected by old, shallow extraction in some cases sinkholes are formed, causing security issues in urbanized areas. Problem of working out deterministic forecast of this threat seems to be important and up-to-date. Mathematical model presented in this work let us predict the possibility of sinkhole formation. That prediction is essential for analyzing possibility of investments in such areas. Basing on presented work, it is also possible to determine dimensions of sinkhole. Considerations are based on known from literature Sałustowicz’s theory, which is utilises Huber’s solution of equation describing the stress state around elliptic void made in flat plate

An analysis has been carried out to study the flow and heat transfer in a liquid film over a permeable stretching sheet. Using similarity transformations, the time-dependent boundary layer equations are reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The resulting parameter problem and velocity as well as temperature fields are solved using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Analytic series solutions are given, and numerical results for velocity and the temperature profiles are presented through graphs of different values for pertinent parameter. The effects of unsteadiness parameter and permeability parameter on the velocity and temperature profiles are explored for different values of blowing or suction parameter.

In the design of slurry transport equipment, the effects of solid particle concentration on hydraulic performance and wear have to be considered. This study involves examining the acoustic properties of slurry flows such as velocity, backscatter and attenuation as a function of volume fraction of solid particles. Ultrasound A-mode imaging method is developed to obtain particle concentration in a flow of soda lime glass particles (diameter of 200 micron) and water slurry in a 1″ diameter pipe. Based on the acoustic properties of the slurry a technique is developed to measure local solid particle concentrations. The technique is used to obtain concentration profiles in homogeneous (vertical flow) and non-homogeneous (horizontal flow) slurry flows with solid particle concentrations ranging from 1–10% by volume. The algorithm developed utilizes the power spectrum and attenuation measurements obtained from the homogeneous loop as calibration data in order to obtain concentration profiles in other (i.e. non-homogenous) flow regimes. A computational study using FLUENT was performed and a comparison is made with the experimental results. A reasonable agreement between the experimental and computational results is observed.
