This work is concerned with the flow of a Newtonian fluid through a pipe of constant circular cross section which is uniformly porous. The governing unsteady equations are solved analytically after converting them to a third order ordinary differential equation using similarity transformation method. Expressions for axial and radial velocity components and pressure distribution are obtained. The characteristics of complex axial velocity and complex radial velocity for different values of parameters are analysed. The effects of small suction and small injection are delineated through graphs. Results reveal that suction or injection has significant influence on the flow.

Previous studies by flow visualization have indicated that the flow through a duct of triangular cross section is in its characteristics quite different from flow through a duct with circular cross section. They revealed among others that purely laminar flow exists in the corners of the duct even though the bulk of the fluid moves in turbulent motion. Heat-transfer measurements in such a duct appear to indicate that the turbulent transport in the direction of the height of the duct is considerably smaller than expected from circular tube measurements. The present paper reports the measurements of turbulent correlations for turbulent flow through such a duct. These measurements have been made with hot wires of very small dimensions. They again reveal the existence of a laminar corner region. In the bulk of the fluid, the differences of the correlations to those in a round tube turned out to be smaller than originally suspected.

Experiments were carried out to determine the pressure drop through an annular conduit filled with a plain square wire-mesh woven-screen matrix. The tests involved turbulent fully developed flow of air at steady-state conditions, with the modified Reynolds number (M(1−ε)/Re), based on the hydraulic radius of the packed bed, ranging from 5 × 10−4 to 5 × 10−3. The test section was built according to the geometry of a Stirling engine, simulating an annular regenerator with a radius ratio of 1.369 and a screen of mesh size 10. A corrected Ergun equation was used to correlate the experimental data, considering the wall effects. Comparisons with results obtained by other authors extended the validation of the correlation obtained to a wider range of modified Reynolds numbers (1 × 10−4 ≤ M(1 − ε)/Re ≤ 1) and to different screen mesh sizes. The correlation has been found to work for annular and circular cross-section beds.

This work is concerned with the influence of slip conditions on unsteady stokes flow between parallel porous plates with periodic suction and injection. The obtained unsteady governing equations are solved analytically by similarity method. The characteristics of complex axial velocity and complex radial velocity for different values of parameters are analyzed. Graphical results for slip parameter reveal that it has significant influence on the axial and radial velocity profiles. The effects of suction or injection are also observed. The problem of unsteady stokes flow through porous plates with no slip is recovered as a special case of our problem.

AbstractWe investigate the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid through a straight long pipe with a circular cross section. The flow is driven by the prescribed pressures at the pipe’s ends, where pressure p0 on the pipe’s entry is assumed to be non-constant. Using asymptotic analysis with respect to the small parameter (being the ratio between the pipe’s radius and its length), we replace the non-constant pressure boundary condition with the effective one governing the macroscopic flow. We also derive the optimal boundary pressure p0 such that the fluid velocity through a pipe is maximal.

Numerical study is performed to examine numerically the stable solution for the incompressible viscous steady flow through a curved pipe with circular cross-section. Also the combined effects of high Dean Number Dn and curvature δ on the flow are investigated. Spectral method is applied as a main tool for the numerical technique; where, Fourier series, Chebyshev polynomials, Collocation methods, and Iteration method are used as secondary tools. The flow patterns have been shown graphically for large Dean Numbers and a wide range of curvature, 0.01≤δ≤0.9.Two vortex solutions have been found for secondary flow. Axial velocity has been found to increase with the increase of Dean number and decrease with the increase of curvature. For high Dean number and low curvature almost all the fluid particles leave the inner half of the cross-section. The stable solution zone increases with the increase of curvature up to a certain limit, then decrease.DOI: 10.3329/jname.v7i1.3630
