A NOTE ON THE INCOMPRESSIBLE COUETTE FLOW WITH POROUS WALLS

摘要

In this work, the unsteady velocity is solved exactly for the incompressible Couette flow with porous plates. The steady state temperature distributions are also presented. The characteristics of the transient velocity and the heat transfer at the walls are analyzed and discussed. It is seen that the transverse mass transfer across the fluid has great influence on the velocity and temperature distributions, which also changes the heat transfer behaviors at the two plates.
