Transient electro-osmotic flow of generalized Maxwell fluids through a microchannel

Analytical solution for transient electroosmotic flow in a rotating microchannel

“…As is observed, there is an excellent agreement between our results and the literature data. 33 Compared to the conventional laminar ows, one of the most important characteristics of electro-osmosis ow is the front plug-like prole. To show this feature, we have plotted the velocity proles in the steady-state part of Fig.…”

Transient MHD heat transfer and entropy generation in a microparallel channel combined with pressure and electroosmotic effects

“…Now electroosmotic flow (EOF) has frequently been utilized for manipulating and controlling liquid flows in micro-devices [2]. Many studies of EOF in a microchannel for both Newtonian fluids [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] and non-Newtonian fluids [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] have been well investigated and references therein. In recent years, many researches have been carried to study the heat transfer of EOF in microchannels with different geometrical shapes.…”

Transient electroosmotic flow of Maxwell fluids in a slit microchannel with asymmetric zeta potentials

“…In this context, Zhao et al [24] obtained an analytical solution for the unsteady electroosmotic flow of Oldroyd-B fluids, reporting the effects of relaxation time and retardation time on the velocity profiles, which produce an oscillatory behavior around the terminal velocity. Meanwhile, Li et al [25] studied transient electroosmotic flows of Maxwell fluids in a micro-parallel channel and in a microtube. Their results show that with the increase of a normalized relaxation time, the flow takes longer time to attain the steady state.…”
