Magnetohydrodynamic Flow of Dusty Fluids between Two Inclined Co - axial Cylinders

Abstract

In this paper, we have studied the MHD flow of a dusty viscous non Newtonian fluid flowing between two inclined co-axial cylinders such that the flow is influenced by gravity. Within the frame work of some physically realistic approximation, derivations for velocity profile of both phases with suitable boundary conditions have been obtained by varying the magnetic field and inclination of the co-axial cylinders. The result shows that on increasing the magnetic field, the velocities of both phases increase in the beginning and taking a maximum value, they start decreasing for every inclination of the co-axial cylinders. The results have got remarkable applications in various fields involving nuclear reactor cooling, powder technology, sedimentation, flow of oil, gases and molten metals as these flows occur between two inclined coaxial
cylinders.
