Abstract This thesis contains numerical solutions for systems of nonlinear equations governing uid ow and heat transfer of some non-Newtonian uids through dierent geometric shapes. Also presented a study to the error analysis in numerical methods by comparing it with exact solution and previously published work. It should be noted that the solution of the current results is obtained by designing Matlab programme and then the present graphics are drawn by designing Excel and Matlab programmes. This thesis consists of four chapters, which are followed by lists of references. Chapter(1) The introductory chapter is considered as a background for the material included in the thesis. The purpose of this chapter is to present a short introduction on numerical analysis and uid mechanics, a brief survey of famous numerical methods which using to solve uid mechanics problems, uid properties and the basic ow equations. Moreover, it contains a short survey of some needed concepts of the material used in this thesis. Chapter(2) The purpose of this chapter is to study the eect of Casson viscosity on steady MHD ow and heat transfer between two parallel plates in the presence of dissipations. the governing equations are transformed into ordinary dierential equations by applying the dimensionless quantities. In addition, the resulting equations solved numerically by using the nite dierence method (FDM). Moreover, numerical results are presented for the distribution of velocity and temperature proles for various parametric conditions. The eects of varying presiii SUMMARY sure parameter , the Hartman number Ha and the yield stress parameter D are determined. Furthermore, at the end of this chapter the conclusions are summarized. Some results of this chapter is accepted (Asian Journal of Mathematics and Computer Science). Chapter(3) The aim of this chapter is to study the eect of radiation, heat generation and dissipations on heat transfer of stagnation point MHD ow of micropolar uid over a stretching sheet. Using suitable similarity transformations, the governing partial dierential equations are transformed into ordinary dierential equations and then solved numerically by applying (FDM). The solutions are found to be governed by six parameters, the stretching parameter C , the material parameter K, the thermal radiation parameter Rd , the Prandtl number Pr , the heat generation/absorption parameter B and Eckert number Ec . Numerical results are presented the distribution of velocity and temperature pro-les. Furthermore, comparisons of the present results with previously published work respect to skin friction show that the present results have high accuracy and are found to be in a good agreement. At the end of this chapter, the conclusions are summarized. The work in this chapter is submitted to (International Journal of advances in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics). Chapter(4) The main goal of this chapter is to study the eect of Hematocrit viscosity on the blood (non-newtonian uid) ow and temperature through a rectangular artery of large aspect ratio in the presence viscous of dissipation. The non-dimensional quantities are applied to transform the governing equations into ordinary dierential equations. Numerical solutions of the governing (momentum and energy) equations are obtained taking suction and injection into consideration. The nonlinear system of equations linearized using nite dierence method to obtain the velocity and temperature distributions. Numerical and graphical results for the velocity and temperature proles are presented and discussed for various parameters. Figures and Tables illustrate the eects of dimensionless non-Newtonian viscosity , suction parameter S and Brinkman number Br on the nondimensional velocity and temiv SUMMARY perature. Furthermore, comparisons of the present results with exact solution at a specic case have high accuracy and are found to be in a good agreement. Some results of this chapter is accepted for (Journal of Natural Sciences and Mathematics). |
