Computational analysis on unsteady hydromagnetic Couette flow of fluid—Particle suspension in an accelerated porous channel

In this analysis, Semi-analytical solution representing the time dependent Couette flow of conducting fluid–particle suspension in a permeable channel is offered in the existence of a magnetic field. The magnetic field is anticipated to be positioned either with the conducting suspension or the velo...

description In this analysis, Semi-analytical solution representing the time dependent Couette flow of conducting fluid–particle suspension in a permeable channel is offered in the existence of a magnetic field. The magnetic field is anticipated to be positioned either with the conducting suspension or the velocity of the magnetic field is same with the moving wall. Solution to the dimensionless coupled equations are provided by adopting the well known Laplace transform technique and D’Alermbert Method for both flow cases. The obtained solutions are later inverted to the time domain with the help of the Riemann sum approximation. Numerical values for fluid–particle suspension was validated with existing benchmark. Expressions for fluid–particle velocity and their corresponding skin fiction are also found in both cases. Influence of a number of flow parameters on flow formation are demonstrated via graphs. Results indicate that, irrespective of the magnetic field positioned either with the conducting suspension or with the moving wall, injection velocity strengthens the momentum boundary layer yielding an increase in fluid phase velocity and particle phase velocity, whereas the contrast is true with suction.
