The homotopy analysis method (HAM) has been applied to develop an analytic solution for the coupled radiation-convection dissipative non-gray gas flow in a non-Darcy porous medium. Results are presented for the surface shear and temperature profiles are presented to illustrate the effect of various parameters appearing in the analytical formulation. The accuracy and convergence of the method is also discussed.

The present work aims to report the consequences of Darcy-Forchheimer medium in flow of Cross fluid model toward a stretched surface. Flow in porous space is categorized by Darcy-Forchheimer medium. Further heat transfer characteristics are examined via thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption. Transformation procedure is used. The arising system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations is solved numerically by means of shooting method. The effects of different flow variables on velocity, temperature, concentration, skin friction, and heat transfer rate are discussed. The obtained outcomes show that velocity was enhanced with the increase in the Weissenberg number but decays with increase in the porosity parameter and Hartman number. Temperature field is boosted by thermal radiation and heat generation; however, it decays with the increase in the Prandtl number.

This paper aims to discuss the Non Darcy boundary layer flow of non-conducting viscous fluid with magnetic ferroparticles over a permeable linearly stretching surface with ohmic dissipation and mixed convective heat transfer. A magnetic dipole is applied "a" distance below the surface of stretching sheet. The governing equations are modeled. Similarity transformation is used to convert the system of partial differential equations to a system of non-linear but ordinary differential equations. The ODEs are solved numerically. The effects of sundry parameters on the flow properties like velocity, pressure, skin-friction coefficient and Nusselt number are presented. It is deduced the frictional resistance of Lorentz force decreases with stronger electric field and the trend reverses for temperature. Skin friction coefficient increase with increase in ferromagnetic interaction parameter. Whereas, Nusselt number decrease.

A linear stability analysis applied to a system consist of a horizontal fluid layer overlying a layer of a porous medium affected by a vertical magnetic field on both layers. Flow in porous medium is assumed to be governed by Darcy's law. The Beavers-Joseph condition is applied at the interface between the two layers. Numerical solutions are obtained for stationary convection case using the method of expansion of Chebyshev polynomials. It is found that the spectral method has a strong ability to solve the multilayered problem and that the magnetic field has a strong effect in his model.

A numerical analysis has been carried out on forced convection heat transfer in the developing region of a porous channel. The channel is filled with an isotropic porous medium. At the channel walls, a uniform heat flux is given. Comprehensive numerical solutions are acquired to the Brinkman-Forchheimer extended Darcy equation and the LTNE model which does not employ the assumption of local thermal equilibrium between solid and fluid phases. Details of thermal fields in the developing region are examined over wide ranges of the thermal parameters. The numerical solutions at the fully developed region are compared with the previous analytical solutions. The correlation for predicting local Nusselt number in a porous channel is proposed.

본 연구에서는 다공질 지반체내의 투수계수를 계산하기 위하여 정방형의 배열형태를 갖는 유동관망(pipe network) 유동해석 모델을 개발하였다. 본 유동관망을 통한 유체의 흐름 메커니즘은 통계적 침투이론(percolation theory)에 기초하여 정의된다(Stauffer and Aharony, 1994). 여기서, 개별 유동관의 직경들이 주어진 다공질 매질의 공극률과 공극크기 분포특성을 기초로 하여 통계적으로 지정됨으로 계산된 유체흐름은 불균일한 채널 유동 형태로 나타난다. 본 유동해석에서는 유동관망 모델의 한쪽 경계면에 가압된 유체가 투입되고 다른 측면 경계면들은 흐름을 억제하는 경계조건을 두어 한 방향으로 유동관망을 통해 유체의 흐름을 유도하여 모델링된다. 이때, 흐름을 허용할지를 정의하는 확산조건(percolation condition)이 각 유동관에 부여되며, 이는 각 유동 경로의 직경과 재료면 특성을 기초로 계산된 삼투압(capillary pressure) 수준에 의해 정의된다. 유체가 유입되는 면의 수압에 대해 전체 유동관망 모델 내의 수압 분포가 평형을 이루면 유출되는 면의 수압이 일정해 지며, 유입면의 수압과 계산된 유출면의 수압 및 유동량을 Darcy 방정식에 적용하면 유동관망 모델로 모사된 다공질 매질의 투수계수를 얻어 낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는, 민감할 것으로 예상된 유동 격자망의 규모의 투수계수 결과값에 대한 민감도를 검토하였으며, 실제 석유개발 현장에서 수집된 시추코어에 대해 측정된 투수계수값과 제안 네트워크 모델을 이용한 계산값과 비교하여 합리적인 범위 내에서 잘 부합됨을 보였다.
