Analysis of Microchannel Flow Fields Using Micropolar Fluid Theory

미세극성유체 이론을 이용한 마이크로 채널내의 유동장 해석

In this paper, we have described the microchannel fluid behavior in a slot between rotating curvilinear surfaces of revolution using micropolar fluid theory. ]n order to solve this problem, we have used boundary layer equations and applied non-zero values of the microrotation vector on the wall. The results are compared with the corresponding flow problems for Newtonian fluid. Results show that both the velocity distribution and the microrotation component distribution for a micropolar fluid are lower than that of a Newtonian fluid.
