Abstract:
The electro-osmotic flow and heat transfer of a Maxwell fluid with distributed-order time-fractional characteristics in a microchannel under an alternating field is investigated, while considering viscous dissipation and Joule heating. The unsteady momentum and energy equations are computed numerically directly using the finite volume method. The accuracy of the numerical method is validated by comparison the constructed velocity distribution with the velocity distribution in previous references. With the time going on, oscillation of alternating current with a constant amplitude will afford periodic velocity distribution. The temperature will periodically increase. Furthermore, the velocity and temperature distributions characteristics of a Newtonian fluid, fractional Maxwell fluid, and generalized Maxwell fluid with time distribution are compared. Finally, the effects of different physical parameters K, S, Br, Ha, λ, Ω, ψ1, ψ2, Pr, and δ on the velocity and heat distributions under an alternating field are discussed.
