Magnetohydrodynamic Flow of a Dusty Viscous Fluid through Circular Tube

Abstract

This study is concentrated on the effect of magnetic – field on the flow of dusty fluids through circular tube. After forming the equations for circular tube based on the required conditions with assumed parameters, the expression for mean velocity is found. It is observed that the increasing value of radius of channel(r) accelerates the resonance condition to occur for lower values of magnetic field (M) and the maximum mean velocity occurs for low values of r (near M=2).The dust particles, near the wall of the tube, seem to be more effected in this case.
