Slip Effects On Creeping Flow Through A Tube

Abstract

In this thesis, an attempt has been to study an incompressible creeping fluid passing through uniform permeable tube with linear re-absorption on the wall. The governing equations with suitable slip flow boundary conditions are solved by using stream function. From the general solution expressions are presented for velocity profile, pressure gradient and volumetric flow rate. We also examined the effect of slip coefficient on velocity profiles and pressure gradient and their graphical solutions are also presented.
