Integral Transform Method to Solve the Problem of Porous Slider without Velocity Slip

Abstract

This study is about the lubrication of a long porous slider in which the fluid is injected into the porous bottom. The similarity transformation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to couple nonlinear, ordinary differential equations, which are solved by a new algorithm. The proposed technique is based on integral transformation. Apparently, there is great symmetry between proposed method and variation iteration method, Adomian decomposition method but in integral transform method all the boundary conditions are applied, then a recursive scheme is used for the analytical solutions, which is unlike the Variational Iteration Method, Adomian Decomposition Method, and other existing analytical methods. Solutions are obtained for much larger Reynolds numbers, and they are compared with analytical and numerical methods. Effects of Reynolds number on velocity components are presented.
