Abstract
The flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid between two eccentric rotating porous cylinders with suction/injection at both the cylinders, for very small clearance ratio is studied. The expressions for various flow characteristics are obtained using perturbation analysis. Streamlines and pressure plots are shown graphically for various values of flow parameters and discussed.
Highlights
In the present investigation we have considered the viscous flow between eccentric porous rotating cylinders
In particular the complex hydrodynamical lubrication problem as flow between two rotating eccentric cylinders was analysed by Reynolds [10]
Wannier [13] presented an exact solution of the Stokes equation for the flow between rotating eccentric cylinders
