Abstract
Exact analytical solutions for the velocity profiles and flow rates have been obtained in explicit forms for the Poiseuille and Couette–Poiseuille flow of a third grade fluid between two parallel plates. These exact solutions match well with their numerical counter parts and are better than the recently developed approximate analytical solutions. Besides, effects of various parameters on the velocity profile and flow rate have been studied.
► Poiseuille and Couette–Poiseuille flow of 3rd grade fluid studied. ► Exact explicit solutions for velocity profiles and flow rates obtained. ► All possible flow configurations and effects of various parameters discussed.
