Slip Effects on Creeping Flow Through Porous Tube with Sinusoidal Reabsorption

Abstract

In this thesis, we have investigated the creeping flow of viscous fluid through a porous tube with sinusoidal reabsorption on the wall under the effect of slip boundary condi tions. The system of non-linear partial differential equations (PDE’s) has been solved using inverse method for stream function formulation of the problem. Mathematical expressions for velocity components, volume flow rate, leakage flux, wall shear stress, pressure distribution, average pressure, mean pressure drop and fractional absorption are obtained. The analytical solutions of the governing equations are also presented graphically
