In this study, steady and unsteady magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) Couette flows between two parallel infinite plates have been studied through numerical Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) and analytical Differential Transformation Method (DTM), respectively. Coupled equations by taking the viscosity effect of the two phases for fixed and moving plates have been introduced. The precious contribution of the present study is introducing new, fast and efficient numerical and analytical methods in a two-phase MHD Couette fluid flow. Results are compared with those previously obtained by using Finite Difference Method (FDM). The velocity profiles of two phases are presented and a parametric study of physical parameters involved in the problem is conducted. As an outcome, when magnetic source is fixed relative to the moving plate, by increasing the Hartmann number, velocity profiles for both phases increased, but when it is fixed relative to the fluid an inverse treatment is observed. ß 2014 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers.

1. Introduction The study of fluid-particle two-phase flow is important in many science applications such as petroleum transport, waste water treatment, combustion, power plant piping, corrosive particles in engine oil flow and mining, smoke emission from vehicles, etc. The cases that particles come into contact with a solid or fluid boundary have been immense interest of many researchers such as nanofluids which can be found in Sheikholeslami et al. works [1–5]. Various processes such as filtration, combustion, air and water pollution, coal transport and cleaning, micro contamination control and xerography involve the particle transportation and deposition. Numerical solutions of equation derived from the balance equation of external forces applied to a particle in interaction with drag, virtual mass force, the Basset force, lift force, etc. have been broadly considered in literature. It is known that, a fast and high accurate solution is usually the preferred and convenient method in engineering area because of less computational work as well as high accuracy.

Chamkha [6] studied the unsteady laminar flow and heat transfer of a particulate suspension in an electrically conducting fluid through channels and circular pipes in the presence of uniform transverse magnetic field. Jha and Apere [7] provided the semianalytical solution to the unsteady MHD two-phase Couette flow between two infinite parallel plates using the Laplace transform technique and the Riemann-sum approximation method and compared their results with those using Finite Difference Method (FDM). The unsteady magneto-hydrodynamic flow of an electrically conducting viscous incompressible non-Newtonian Bingham fluid bounded by two parallel non-conducting porous plates is studied with heat transfer considering the Hall effect by Attia et al. [8]. Gedik et al. [9] investigated the unsteady flow of two-phase (solid/liquid) flow for laminar, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid through a circular pipe in the presence of a uniform transverse external magnetic and electrical field. Coupled equations in velocity and magnetic field for unsteady MHD flow through a pipe of rectangular section have been solved by Shakeri and Dehghan [10] with using combined finite volume method and spectral element technique. Jalaal et al. [11] solved a spherical particle’s motion in Couette flow using Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) and got comparable results to numerical ones. The unsteady rolling motion of a spherical particle restricted to a tube was studied

analytically by Jalaal and Ganji [12]. They obtained an exact solution of particle velocity and acceleration motion under some practical conditions through applying HPM. Jalaal and Ganji [13] proposed an analytical solution for acceleration motion of a spherical particle rolling down an inclined boundary with drag coefficient which is correlated linearly to Re in a specific range using HPM. Various inclination angles were studied and observed that settling velocity, acceleration duration and displacement are proportional to amount of inclination angle while for a constant inclination angle; settling velocity and acceleration duration are decreased by increasing the fluid viscosity. Recently, Ghasemi et al. [14] discussed about the convergence and accuracy of Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) for solving the motion of a spherical particle in Couette fluid flow. Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) is a numerical technique which was first developed by Richard Bellman and his associates in the early 1970s [15]. The DQM applications were rapidly developed thanks to the innovative works in computation of weighting coefficient by other scientists and recently this method was applied in many engineering problems [16–20]. The concept of differential transformation method (DTM) was first introduced by Zhou [21] in 1986 and it was used to solve both linear and nonlinear initial value problems in electric circuit analysis. This method can be applied directly for linear and nonlinear differential equation without requiring linearization, discretization, or perturbation and this is the main benefit of this method. Ghafoori et al. [22] used the DTM for solving the nonlinear oscillation equation. Many other papers which used these types of analytical and numerical methods for solving the engineering problems can be found in the literature [23–32]. Motivated by the above-mentioned works, the main objective of the present research paper is to introduce DQM as a numerical and high efficient technique on unsteady two-phase MHD Couette fluid flow for obtaining the velocity profiles of both the fluid and particle phases. Flow in the channel is generated by the impulsive movement of the lower plate and DTM is applied to problem for investigating the steady state behavior. Results show that these two methods are accurate and for all constant values in coupled equations have excellent agreement with numerical FDM method.

(a) It is assumed that the fluid and the particles are interacting as a continuum. (b) The fluid phase is assumed to be electrically conducting, but the channel walls are assumed to be electrically nonconducting. (c) Particles are not subject to electro-magnetic force. So, equation of motion for the particles does not contain the force term due to the electro-magnetic field. (d) Velocity of both the phases is considered to be irrotational. According to [7] and [33] model, the equation of motion with electromagnetic force added is given as shown below [7]

In general form, ~ J ¼ s ð~ EþV electric field is not considered in this paper and should be zero. Also, in the present study magnetic field is applied in one direction, ~ ¼ ð0; B0 ; 0Þ. Under the assumptions made in the present i.e.: B problem, Eqs. (1) and (2) become:

Eq. (3) is valid when the magnetic field is fixed relative to the fluid. If the magnetic field is also accelerated with the same velocity as the plate, we must account for the relative motion. Thus, Eq. (3) turns to

2. Problem description The motion of an unsteady, laminar, viscous fluid/particle suspension between two infinite horizontal plates located at the z = 0 and z = h planes is considered. A uniform transverse magnetic field is applied to the flow and it is assumed that no applied or polarization voltage exists. When t > 0 the lower plate begins to move in its own plane with a velocity Utn where U is a constant and the upper plate remains fixed. A schematic view of described problem is shown in Fig. 1. Following assumptions are considered by Rahmatulin [33] and Jha and Apere [7] to simplification the problem:

3. Principles of methods 3.1. Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) In this study, polynomial expansion based differential quadrature, as introduced by Quan and Chang [34,35], is applied for solving the problem. Several attempts have been made by researchers to develop polynomial based differential quadrature methods. One of the most useful approaches is the one that uses the following Lagrange interpolation polynomials as test functions: MðxÞ

g k ðxÞ ¼

ðx  xk ÞM ð1Þ ðxk Þ

k ¼ 1; 2; :::; N

where:

where A(1) and A(2) denote the weighting coefficients of the first and second order derivatives of the function f(r) with respect to the r direction. N is the number of grid points chosen in the r direction. The differential quadrature approximation can be easily extended from the above formulation to other coordinates. The first order derivatives in the two-dimensional formulation are approximated by:

3.2. Differential Transformation Method (DTM) Basic definitions and operations of differential transformation are introduced as follows. Differential transformation of the function f ðhÞ is defined as follows: " # k 1 d f ðhÞ (17) FðkÞ ¼ k! dhk

k¼0

by combining Eqs. (17) and (18) f ðhÞ can be obtained: " # k 1 X d f ðhÞ ðh  h0 Þk f ðhÞ ¼ k k! dh k¼0

(19)

Eq. (19) implies that the concept of the differential transformation is derived from Taylor’s series expansion, but the method does not evaluate the derivatives symbolically. However, relative derivatives are calculated by an iterative procedure that is described by the transformed equations of the original functions. From the definitions of Eqs. (17) and (18), it is easily proven that the transformed functions comply with the basic mathematical operations shown in below. In real applications, the function f ðhÞ in Eq. (19) is expressed by a finite series and can be written as: f ðhÞ ¼

N X ð2Þ Ail f l j ;

P X ð2Þ  Bkn f i jn ;

In Eq. (17), f ðhÞ is the original function and FðkÞ is the transformed function which is called the T-function (it is also called the spectrum of the f ðhÞ at h ¼ h0 , in the k domain). The differential inverse transformation of FðkÞ is defined as:

(15)

m¼1

And the second order derivatives can be approximated by:

@2 f @r 2

where A(1) and B(1) denote the weighting coefficients of the first order derivatives; A(2) and B(2) denote the weighting coefficients of the second order derivatives of the function f(r,z) with respect to the r and z-directions, respectively; N, and P are the number of grid points chosen in the r and z-directions, respectively.

These non-uniform points for h are presented in Table 2 for P = 15. Obtained results by DQM are compared with FDM [7] in Table 3 (for fluid and particle phase for both when K = 0 and 1) and an excellent agreement between these two numerical methods is observed. But, solution of DQM for each run takes less than 1 min (approximately 30 s) while FDM results converge more than 1 min, so DQM is faster than FDM. Furthermore, unlike conventional methods such as Finite Element (FE) and FDM, DQM requires less grid points to obtain acceptable accuracy. Another advantage of DQM is that it transforms the differential equations into a set of analogous algebraic equations in terms of the unknown function values at the resembled points in the solution domain. Maybe the main advantage of DQM is its inherent conceptual simplicity, accuracy and the fact that easily programmable [37,38]. As described by Shu [37], Table 4 shows that DQM needs to less interpolation points and results of P = N = 15 are approximately similar to when grid points are twice, i.e. N = P = 30. Figs. 2–7 are related to the unsteady analysis. Fig. 2 demonstrates that an increase in time leads to an increase in the fluid and particle

velocities for K = 0. Also, the same trend is notice in Fig. 3 for both phases when K = 1. In fact, this effect is more pronounced on the particle field. Fig. 4 demonstrates the effect of Ha number on fluid and particle velocities. As seen by increasing Ha number, velocity profiles are decreased for both fluid and particle phases when K = 0 and h = 0.5. But, when K = 1, increasing the Ha number leads to increase in velocity profiles which are depicted in Fig. 5. Figs. 6 and 7, which show the velocity profiles versus time (h), demonstrate the effect of Rv on velocity profiles when K = 0 and K = 1, respectively. For K = 0 (Fig. 6), it is observed that an increase in Rv, result into an increase in velocities. For K = 1 (Fig. 7), at small times (h < 0.4) the same trend is observed, but as the time is increased further, the trend is completely reversed. It is found out that the fluid velocity is always greater than that of the particle for all the dimensional quantities considered. For the two phases by setting @ð Þ=@h in Eq. (10) to zero, the following ordinary differential equations then results for steady

figures, increasing the Ha number makes a decrease in both velocity profiles for K = 0, but it makes an increase in velocity profiles when K = 1. 5. Conclusion In this paper, an analytical approach called Differential Transformation Method (DTM) and a numerical method, Differential Quadrature Method (DQM), have been successfully applied to find the accurate solution for the steady and unsteady MHD Couette flow between two parallel infinite plates. As a main outcome from the present study, it is observed that the results of DTM and DQM are in excellent agreement with FDM. Also, the effects of time h, Hartmann number Ha, the viscosity ratio Rv on fluid and particle velocity profiles are studied. It is concluded that velocities can be controlled by increasing or decreasing the magnetic field. References [1] Sheikholeslami M, Ganji DD, Gorji-Bandpy M, Soleimani S.
