Nonlinear Study of Magnetohydrodynamic Laminar Flow Between Permeable Disks Using CESS
RÉSUMÉ
A two-dimensional, steady, laminar flow of an electrically conducting incompressible, viscous fluid between two parallel permeable disks in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is studied using the computer-extended series solution (CESS). It is shown, using suitable analysis that the radius of convergence (ROC) is greatly influenced by the parameters of the problem, which renders the classical regular perturbation technique (RPT) ineffective for values of the perturbation parameter beyond the ROC. The ROC is shown to decrease with an increase in the value of the interaction parameter N. The skin friction coefficient and coefficient of pressure distribution are evaluated for different values of suction/injection Reynolds number R and magnetic interaction parameter N. The advantages of using the CESS method over the RPT and numerical techniques are discussed.
