Finite Difference Analysis of Plane Couette Flow using MATLAB
Abstract: Internal flow is a flow for which the fluid is confined by a surface. Hence, the boundary layer is unable to develop without eventually being constrained. An internal flow is constrained by the bounding walls, and the viscous effects will grow and meet and permeate the entire flow. Some examples of internal flows are: flow between two parallel horizontal plates, Couette flow, plane Poiseuille flow, flow through pipes, etc. In …

Effect of Initial Temperature and Diameter of Ethanol Droplet on Evaporation Dynamics in Convective Air Medium
Abstract: Ethanol is a suitable biofuel as it has fewer toxic emissions and higher-octane numbers. For spray combustion applications, the gas phase motion must be considered while numerically investigating the fundamental aspects of droplet evaporation and combustion processes. Hence, we have numerically simulated the evaporation dynamics of an isolated spherically shaped ethanol droplet under a forced convective air environment in the absence of gravity. The momentum transfer between two phases is …

Linear Stability Analysis of Taylor-Couette Flow with and without Viscous Heating
Abstract: This paper presents linear stability analysis of the incompressible viscous flow between the two concentric counter rotating cylinders. The parallel flow assumption is applied; hence the mean flow is the function of radial coordinate only. The main objective of this study is to explore the effect of the viscous heating, Nahme number and radius ratio (Ratio of inner to outer cylinder radius, η) on the stability characteristics of Taylor-Couette flow. …
