The Effect of Suction and Injection on MHD Flow Between Two Porous Concentric Cylinders Filled with Porous Medium
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN PHYSICS - Year 2019, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
This Paper deals wit the effects of suction (injection) on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) steady flow of a viscous and electrically conducting fluid in an annular porous region between two concentric cylinders. The inner cylinder is rotating with uniform angular velocity and the outer one is fixed. The two cylinders are porous with uniform permeability. It is assumed that the suction rate at the inner cylinder is equal to the injection rate at the outer cylinder. A uniform axial magnetic field was applied perpendicular to the flow direction. The flow resistance presented by the porous medium is governed by the Darcy law. By using similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equations have been transformed to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The solution of the obtained system in its general form has been obtained. Analytical expression for velocity field is obtained in terms of Bessel function of first and second kind. The effects of various parameters such as susction (injection), magnetic and permeability parameters on the flow are discussed and the obtained results are presented graphically. The obtained figures show that, the velocity distribution increased with the increase of permeability parameter of the the porous medium and with suction process. On the other hand, the velocity distribution decreased with the increase of magnetic parameter and with injection parameter.
