Abstract

Applying a Fourier series approach, closed form solutions for fully developed velocity and temperature distribution in a porous-saturated microduct of rectangular cross-section are presented in the slip flow regime. The Brinkman flow model is applied. Invoking the temperature jump equation, the H1 thermal boundary condition is investigated. Expressions are presented for the local and average velocity and temperature profiles, the friction factor, and the slip coefficient in terms of the key parameters. The present results, which are applicable to microducts of rectangular cross-section filled with or without a porous medium, are found to be in complete agreement with those available in the literature for both no-slip and slip flow regime.
