- Abstract
We investigated the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) laminar flow of an elastico‐viscous electrically conducting (Walter's‐B) fluid through a circular cylinder or pipe, loosely packed with a porous material subjected to Hall and ion‐slip effects. The innovation of the study is to consider the entire flow domain without boundary layer approximation in the governing equations. Fully developed solutions of the velocity and pressure drop are obtained making use of perturbation approximation and computationally discussed with reference to flow governing parameters. It is quite exciting that the elastic parameter almost reduces the speed of the liquid in the center of the channel and then continuously expands into the cylinder. For engineering interest, we found the analytical solution and then computationally discussed for skin friction. The occurrence of a magnetic field and a porous matrix gives a fairly uneven flow between the pipes. Elasticity and suction are resistant to experience greater skin friction and are therefore useful for controlling flow separation. A porch has been made to include studies of non‐Newtonian fluids with Hall and ion‐slip effects due to the vast number of possible engineering applications, like power generators, MHD accelerators, refrigeration coils, electric transformers, and heating elements.
