Fluctuating flow of a viscoelastic fluid past an infinite flat plate with uniform suction

  • Published:
Acta Physica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae

Abstract

The problem of a two-dimensional incompressible viscoelastic fluid flow along an infinite flat plate is discussed when the suction velocity normal to the plate is uniform and the external flow velocity varies periodically with time. Expressions for the velocity and skinfriction are obtained in dimensionless forms and the effect of the fluid’s elastic parameter on their behaviour is sought.
