STRUCTURAL STABILITY OF MICROPOLAR FLUID FLOW IN A CURVED PIPE WITH DARCY– LAPWOOD–FORCHHEIMER–BRINKMAN MODEL


A. Prabal†, M. Devakar‡

Abstract: In this article, we address the structural stability of the Darcy–Lapwood–Forchheimer–Brinkman model for a micropolar fluid flowing through a curved pipe. A rigorous analysis is carried out to prove the continuous dependence of solutions of the model on several physical and geometric parameters such as the Reynolds number, curvature ratio, Forchheimer coefficient, and micropolarity parameter.

Keywords: Darcy–Lapwood–Forchheimer–Brinkman model, micropolar fluid, curved pipe, structural stability, continuous dependence.
