Approximate Analytical Study of Natural Convection Flow of Non-newtonian Fluid Through Parallel-Pates With Heat Generation

  • General Medicine

In this present paper, approximate analytical study of natural convection flow of non-Newtonian fluid through Parallel-plates with heat generation is considered. The coupled non-linear momentum and energy equations was solved using perturbation technique. The cases of constant viscosity and temperaturedependent viscosity are treated with the case of temperature-dependent viscosity considered in two models: Reynold's model and Vogel's model. Within the constant viscosity case, results show that increase in the non-Newtonian parametersß, M, decreases the velocity of the fluid flow and increase in these parameters enhances the temperature of the plates. The effects of non-Newtonian and viscosity indices of both Reynold's and Vogel's models on velocity and temperature profiles are presented.
