Casson Fluid Flow Due to Non-Coaxial Rotation of a Porous Disk and the Fluid at Infinity Through a Porous Medium

Resumo

The flow of the Casson fluid due to non-coaxial rotation of a disk and the fluid at infinity is investigated. Partial differential equations are made dimensionless and coupled. The exact solution of the resultant nonlinear initial-boundary-value problem is solved by applying the Laplace transform. The shear stresses at the disk surface and the steady state stresses are computed. The effects of dimensionless parameters on the dimensionless primary and secondary velocities are analyzed.
