We compute exact and numerical solutions of a fully developed flow of a generalized second-grade fluid, with power-law temperature-dependent viscosity (μ=θ-M), down an inclined plane. Analytical solutions are found for the case when M=m+1, m≠1, m being a constant that models shear thinning (m<0) or shear thickening (m>0). The exact solutions are given in terms of Bessel functions. The numerical solutions indicate that both the velocity and the temperature increase with decreasing Froude number and that there is a critical value of Fr below which temperature “overshoots” its free surface value of unity. This phenomena is not reported in the work of Massoudi and Phuoc [Fully developed flow of a modified second grade fluid with temperature dependent viscosity, Acta Mech. 150 (2001) 23–37.] for viscosity that depends exponentially on temperature. |
