A COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH TO THE FLOW OF WALTER’S LIQUID B ′ THROUGH ANNULUS OF COAXIAL POROUS CIRCULAR CYLINDERS FOR HIGH SUCTION PARAMETER

Abstract The present investigation studies the behavior of steady flow of visco-elastic liquid between two porous coaxial circular cylinders, where both the cylinders are rotating with different uniform angular velocities about the common axis. In addition, the inner cylinder has uniform velocity along the axis and the visco-elastic fluid, which is a Walters liquid B′, is allowed to flow in the annulus. The investigation deals with high order suction parameter. The problem is to be used in the chemical industry. Higher Reynolds numbers, visco-elastic parameters and suction parameter have also been considered in the study. A numerical approach has been used to demonstrate out the results and present them graphically
