EFFECT OF COUPLE STRESSES ON THE STEADY FLOWOF A SECOND GRADE FLUID THROUGH THE POROUS MEDIUM
RÉSUMÉ
The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the effect of couple stresses on the flow of a second grade fluid past an infinite porous plate and through a porous medium. The governing equations are modeled using the modified Darcy’s law for a second grade fluid. The equation governing the flow is solved by the differential transform method in combination with the method of superposition. The results are graphically displayed and the effect of couple stresses are discussed through the variations of the couple stress parameter. The influence of suction velocity, porosity parameter, and second grade parameter on the velocity is also analyzed.
