..., steady, laminar Couette flow are investigated. Fluid temperature at the inlet to a parallel plate channel is prescribed, as various combinations of isothermal and adiabatic boundary conditions are along its surfaces. Analytical expressions incorporating arbitrary slip are developed for temperature...

Apere This paper considers the unsteady MHD free convective Couette flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid between two parallel vertical porous plates. Both cases of the applied magnetic field being fixed either to the fluid or to the moving porous...

... separated by a finite distance. The method is successfully applied to study the constant viscosity models, namely plane Couette flow, plane Poiseuille flow, and plane Couette–Poiseuille flow for velocity fields and the temperature distributions. Numerical solutions of the systems are also obtained using...

..., it was found by inspection of Couette flow and Poiseuille flow results that the conventional Navier–Stokes equations are able to predict mass flows correctly up to about Kn = 0.30 . However, our effective mean-free-path-based model using first- and second-order velocity-slip showed reasonably good...
