Abstract

The present investigation is devoted to study the effect of viscous resistance, arising due to sparse distribution of particles in porous media, on the load capacity and thickness time response of porous-walled squeeze films in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. The results of the analysis obtained by using Beavers and Joseph [1] slip-boundary condition show that the viscous resistance increases the load capacity and thickness time response of squeeze films when compared with the results of Chandrasekhara [2] obtained in the absence of viscous resistance. Hence, for efficient performance of a porous walled squeeze film a suitable porous media in which the material is loosely packed may be used.
