Abstract

An experimental analysis of the hydrodynamic flow of a fluid and the temperature distribution in a porous medium is presented. The experiment has been carried out using viscoelastic fluid in a rotating channel, bounded by two impermeable infinite plates at a constant temperature, under the action of a uniform pressure gradient in the direction of the flow. The primary and secondary flow velocities, the temperature distribution and heat transfer in terms of the Nusselt number of the fluid are studied in the model due to the effects of the Ekman layer on the fluid for various values of the viscoelastic parameter (Ve) in the channel height h=-1 to +1.
