Analytical approximate solution of nonlinear differential equation governing Jeffery-Hamel flow with high magnetic field by Adomian decomposition method (Q642856): Difference between revisions

Summary: The magnetohydrodynamic Jeffery-Hamel flow is studied analytically. The traditional Navier-Stokes equation of fluid mechanics and Maxwell's electromagnetism governing equations reduce to nonlinear ordinary differential equations to model this problem. The analytical tool of Adomian decomposition method is used to solve this nonlinear problem. The velocity profile of the conductive fluid inside the divergent channel is studied for various values of Hartmann number. Results agree well with the numerical (Runge-Kutta method) results, tabulated in a table. The plots confirm that the method used is of high accuracy for different \(a\), Ha and Re numbers.
