Abstract
- A steady Newtonian fluid flow through annular region in curved pipes is studied in this paper. The flow takes place due to an axial pressure gradient and it is three-dimensional in nature. The equations governing the flow are highly coupled and nonlinear. The solutions are obtained, analytically, using a regular perturbation method. The effects of curvature ratio (δ) , Reynolds number (Re) and the radius ratio (l) on the axial velocity and stream function are presented graphically. It is observed that, along with curvature ratio and Reynolds number, radius ratio highly affects the fluid flow in annular curved pipes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
