Abstract:
Dynamic responses of a viscous fluid flow introduced under a time dependent pressure gradient in a rigid cylindrical tube subject to deformable porous surface layer have been investigated. The coupling effect of the fluid movement and the deformation of the porous medium in Laplace transform space have been studied. Governing equations are simplified for the solid displacement and the fluid velocity in the porous layer. Using Durbin's algorithm, in transformed domain analytic solutions are obtained, and time dependent variables are considered. Interaction between the solid and the fluid phases in the porous layer and its effects on fluid flow in tube are investigated under steady and unsteady flow conditions when the solid phase is either rigid or deformable. Significant effects of the porous surface layer on the flow in the tube have been observed.
