OPTIMAL AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS METHOD FOR THIN FILM FLOW OF A FOURTH GRADE FLUID DOWN A VERTICAL CYLINDER
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2017, Vol 62, Issue 2
Abstract
A new approximate analytical procedure namely the Optimal Auxiliary Functions Method (OAFM) is proposed and has been applied to thin film flow of a fourth grade fluid down a vertical cylinder. The main advantage of our approach consists in providing a convenient way to control the convergence of the approximate solution in a very rigorous way. This methods, however, does not depend upon any small or large parameters in comparison with other methods. A very good agreement was found between approximate and numerical solution which reveals that OAFM is more effective, very efficient, accurate and easy to use.
