In microchannels where there is a change in the direction of flow, the difference in path
length between the inner and outer walls or boundaries can play an effective role in …

The effect of a fluid's yield stress is numerically studied on the performance of a single-rotor,
I-shaped viscous micropump. The device comprises a long cylindrical rotor which rotates in …

The two-dimensional viscoelastic Giesekus flow past a circular cylinder is investigated by
the openfoam platform based on the finite volume method. The physical parameters …

The efficiency of the peristalsis mechanism is numerically investigated for the transport of
circular solid particles suspended in viscoelastic liquids obeying the Oldroyd-B model …

Studies to control irreversibility or entropy generation in fluid flow models have attracted the
attention of scientists over the past few decades. Current study analyzes both theoretically …

A cylinder rotating in an off-center position across a microchannel is known to generate a net
flow for highly viscous Newtonian fluids. The mechanism is also known to be a viable option …

Peristalsis is known to be a viable option for the transport of Newtonian drops suspended in
another Newtonian liquid. In certain applications, the drop or the bulk liquid is known to be …
