Effect of Viscosity of Fluid on its Velocity through a Horizontal channel having porous medium placed in an Inclined Magnetic Field
Main Article Content
Abstract
This present paper deals with effect of viscosity of fluid on its velocity through a horizontal channel having porous medium placed
in an inclined magnetic field. After forming the governing equations for the flow, they are solved with the help of non-dimensional parameters under assumed boundary conditions, the expression for velocity of fluid has been obtained and using it, graph has been plotted between magnetic field and velocity for different values of viscosity. It has been found that the viscosity has a great effect on velocity profile as it shows a resonance character in the graph, and this can be used for industrial purpose in maintaining the flow of fluid through channels.
