Model Analysis of Some Fluid Properties and Viscoelasticity

Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 3

Abstract

Theoretical study of some fluid properties and viscoelasticity was carried out by determining the solution of the resulting governing equations. Graphical analyses of the solutions showed that, increase heat sink term and Frank-Kamenestkii parameter result in a decrease in the temperature profile of the fluid while an increase in radiation result in a decrease in the temperature of the fluid. Similar results are also observed for dilatant fluids but increase in magnitude. Increase in heat sink term and radiation also reduces the Nusselt number but Frank-Kamnestkii parameter increase causes an increase in the Nusselt number. Increase in relaxation constant and friction/viscosity, reduces the distance of the fluid flow while increase in the natural frequency increases the distance of the fluid flow. Keywords:
