In this paper, exact solutions of velocity and stresses are obtained for the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a Maxwell fluid in a porous half space by the Laplace transform method. The flows are caused by the cosine and sine oscillations of a plate. The derived steady and transient solutions satisfy the involved differential equations and the given conditions. Graphs for steady-state and transient velocities are plotted and discussed. It is found that for a large value of the time t, the transient solutions disappear, and the motion is described by the corresponding steady-state solutions.

AbstractThe flow of a viscous fluid disturbed by an oscillating plate of arbitrary initial phase is studied in present note. The exact solutions of the velocity and the shear stress are solved using a Laplace transform method. The velocity is derived in terms of complementary error functions and the shear stress on the boundary is given in the form of Fresnel integrals. Since the steady-state solutions are well known, our discussions are focused on the transient solutions. The transient state will disappear faster for the wall stress than that for the velocity field. Comparing the results corresponding to different initial phases, the cosine case reaches to the steady state more rapidly than the sine case.

The fractional calculus approach has been taken into account in the Darcys law and the constitutive relationship of fluid model. Based on a modified Darcys law for a viscoelastic fluid, Stokes first problem is considered for a generalized Jeffreys fluid in a porous half space. By using the Fourier sine transform and the Laplace transform, two forms of exact solutions of Stokes first problem for a generalized Jeffreys fluid in the porous half space are obtained in term of generalized Mittag-Leffler function, and one of them is presented as the sum of the similar Newtonian solution and the corresponding non-Newtonian contributions. As the limiting cases, solutions of the Stokes first problem for the generalized second fluid, the fractional Maxwell fluid and the Newtonian fluid in the porous half space are also obtained.

A comparative analysis is carried out to study the unsteady flow of a Maxwell fluid in the presence of Newtonian heating near a vertical flat plate. The fractional derivatives presented by Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio are applied to make a physical model for a Maxwell fluid. Exact solutions of the non-dimensional temperature and velocity fields for Caputo and Caputo–Fabrizio time-fractional derivatives are determined via the Laplace transform technique. Numerical solutions of partial differential equations are obtained by employing Tzou’s and Stehfest’s algorithms to compare the results of both models. Exact solutions with integer-order derivative (fractional parameter α = 1) are also obtained for both temperature and velocity distributions as a special case. A graphical illustration is made to discuss the effect of Prandtl number Pr and time t on the temperature field. Similarly, the effects of Maxwell fluid parameter λ and other flow parameters on the velocity field are presented graphically, as well as in tabular form.

Methods of generating exact steady-state solutions for the flow of superimposed positive and negative fluids are developed for the cases of linear and cylindrical motion. The two fluids are assumed to be subject only to body forces arising from the total E and B fields. It is shown that the only axially symmetric solutions are of cylindrical symmetry, i.e. rotating spheres or rings of charge cannot satisfy the equations where the two fluids overlap.

The Rayleigh-Stokes problem for a generalized Maxwell fluid in a porous half-space with a heated flat plate is investigated. For the description of such a viscoelastic fluid, a fractional calculus approach in the constitutive relationship model is used. By using the Fourier sine transform and the fractional Laplace transform, exact solutions of the velocity and the temperature are obtained. Some classical results can be regarded as particular cases of our results, such as the classical solutions of the first problem of Stokes for Newtonian viscous fluids, Maxwell fluids, and Maxwell fluids in a porous half-space.

AbstractThis paper concerns with the unsteady MHD flow of a second grade fluid between two parallel walls through porous media induced by rectified sine pulses shear stress. The analytical expressions for the velocity field and the adequate shear stress are determined by means of the Laplace transform technique and Fourier cosine and sine transforms and are written as a sum of steady state and transient solutions. The influence of side walls on the fluid motion, the distance between walls for which the velocity of the fluid in the middle of the channel is negligible, and the required time to reach the steady state are presented by graphical illustrations. As the second grade fluid parameter → 0 the problem reduces to the Newtonian fluids performing the same motion.

Unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of fractionalized Brinkman-type fluid over a vertical plate is discussed. In the model of problem, additional effects such as heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction are also considered. The model is solved by using the Caputo fractional derivative. The governing dimensionless equations for velocity, concentration, and temperature profiles are solved using the Laplace transform method and compared graphically. The effects of different parameters like fractional parameter, heat generation/absorption Q , chemical reaction R, and magnetic parameter M are discussed through numerous graphs. Furthermore, comparison among ordinary and fractionalized velocity fields are also drawn. From the figures, it is observed that chemical reaction and magnetic field have decreasing effect on velocity profile, whereas thermal radiation and mass Grashof numbers have increasing effect on the velocity of the fluid.

This paper investigates a modified analytical method called the Adomian decomposition transform method for solving fractional-order heat equations with the help of the Caputo-Fabrizio operator. The Laplace transform and the Adomian decomposition method are implemented to obtain the result of the given models. The validity of the proposed method is verified by considering some numerical problems. The solution achieved has shown that the better accuracy of the suggested method. Furthermore, due to the straightforward implementation, the proposed method can solve other nonlinear fractional-order problems.

The present paper deals with the unsteady magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow and heat transfer of some nanofluids past an accelerating infinite vertical plate in a porous medium. Water as conventional base fluid containing three different types of nanoparticles such as copper (Cu), aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and titanium oxide (TiO2) are considered. By using suitable transformations, the governing partial differential equations corresponding to the momentum and energy are converted into linear ordinary differential equations. Exact solutions of these equations are obtained with the Laplace Transform method. The influence of pertinent parameters on the fluid motion is graphically underlined. It is found that the temperature of Cu-water is higher than those of Al2O3-water and TiO2-water nanofluids.
