The study of glycerol type flow near ciliated walls

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study is based on the Williamson fluid model across the micro-wavy channel having ciliated walls. In animals, cilia is well known in the respiratory system, digestive system, reproductive zones of human beings and in the nervous system. The Poisson–Boltzmann equation is utilized to model electroosmotic phenomena. Applications for electro-osmotic fluid have several and include electro-osmoic fluid pumps, DNA testing, lab-on-chip devices, etc. The estimation of the long wavelength and very minimal Reynolds number approximations are used to solve the equations, and the solutions of the problem are obtained by applying perturbation method. The special outcomes of the physical parameters on different flow quantities including, axial velocity, temperature, pressure gradient, concentration and streamline distribution at the ciliated walls are discussed through graphs.
