Abstract
We investigate heat transfer between parallel plates separated by liquid argon using two-dimensional molecular dynamics (MD) simulations incorporating with 6-12 Lennard-Jones potential between molecule pairs. In molecular dynamics simulation of nanoscale flows through nanochannels, it is customary to fix the wall molecules. However, this approach cannot suitably model the heat transfer between the fluid molecules and wall molecules. Alternatively, we use thermal walls constructed from the oscillating molecules, which are connected to their original positions using linear spring forces. This approach is much more effective than the one which uses a fixed lattice wall modeling to simulate the...
A molecular dynamics study of fluid flows through slit-like nanochannels using two different driving systems
, Article ASME 2010 8th International Conference on Nanochannels, Microchannels, and Minichannels Collocated with 3rd Joint US-European Fluids Engineering Summer Meeting, ICNMM2010, 1 August 2010 through 5 August 2010 ; Issue PARTS A AND B , 2010 , Pages 1029-1033 ; Khaledi Alidusti, R ; Sabouri, M ; Abbasi, H.

Abstract
The Poiseuille flow through slit-like nanochannels is investigated using the nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. To drive a dense flow through the channel, we use two self-adjusting vertical plates strategy. These plates force the liquid to flow through the nanochannel under adjustable inlet and outlet boundary conditions. Comparing with the dual-control-volume grand-canonical molecular dynamics method, the current strategy provides many advantages. The current strategy does not need particle insertion and deletion, therefore, the system dynamics would not be affected at all. Moreover, the number of particles in the simulation system is fixed due to inserting the two...
Simulation of polymer chain driven by DPD solvent particles in nanoscale flows

Abstract
In this study, we simulate the motion and reformation of polymer chain in the nanoscale fluid flow motion of the DPD (Dissipative Particle Dynamics) solvent. The behavior of polymer chain through DPD solvent is studied for 2D and 3D considerations. We implement two body forces of Poiseuille flow and electroosmotic flow to the DPD fluid particles. In case of the electroosmotic flow force, we show that the movement of polymer chain via the electroosmotic phenomenon provides less dispersion than that of the Poiseuille flow for the same polymer chain movement

The aim of this study is to find optimum values of design parameters of annular flow with outer grooved cylinder and rotating inner cylinder in the presence of axial flow by using Response surface Method (RSM). This configuration is popular in cooling of electric generators and rotating machineries. Groove aspect ratio (0
Application of the homotopy method for analytical solution of non-Newtonian channel flows

Abstract
This paper presents the homotopy series solution of the Navier-Stokes and energy equations for non-Newtonian flows. Three different problems, Couette flow, Poiseuille flow and Couette-Poiseuille flow have been investigated. For all three cases, the nonlinear momentum and energy equations have been solved using the homotopy method and analytical approximations for the velocity and the temperature distribution have been obtained. The current results agree well with those obtained by the homotopy perturbation method derived by Siddiqui et al (2008 Chaos Solitons Fractals36 182-92). In addition to providing analytical solutions, this paper draws attention to interesting physical phenomena...
Modelling of power-law fluid flow through porous media using smoothed particle hydrodynamics

Abstract
The flow of non-Newtonian fluids through two-dimensional porous media is analyzed at the pore scale using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. A fully explicit projection method is used to simulate incompressible flow. This study focuses on a shear-thinning power-law model (n < 1), though the method is sufficiently general to include other stress-shear rate relationships. The capabilities of the proposed method are demonstrated by analyzing a Poiseuille problem at low Reynolds numbers. Two test cases are also solved to evaluate validity of Darcy's law for power-law fluids and to investigate the effect of anisotropy at the pore scale. Results show that the proposed algorithm can...

Abstract
In this research purely oscillation fluid flow in two microtubes 150 and 250 μM(3.5 mm length) is studied using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach and utilizing a new experimental setup developed for dynamic interfacial tension measurement (capillary pressure technique) in the frequency range between 0.2 and 80 Hz. The experiments are done with pure water at a mean temperature of about 25 °C. The results of oscillatory conditions for microtubes of 0.5 mm in diameter have been compared with experimental results for several frequencies. The computational approach was validated by comparison with experimental data of the continuous constant flow through microtubes and also with...
