【 摘 要 】

In this study, we investigated multilayer coatings fully developed with steady Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids through parallel inclined plates. The channel was rotating about the $y$-axis with angular velocity $\Omega$. The channel contained three regions; Region 1 and Region 3 were filled with Newtonian fluid, while Region 2 had Jeffrey fluid through a porous medium. The governing equations were formed by using Navier stokes and energy equations. The equations were coupled and were non-linear due to the involvement of Darcy’s dissipation terms. The systems of equations for Region 1 and Region 3 were solved analytically, while the equations of Region 2 were solved by using the regular perturbation method. The effects of governing parameters such as magnetic field, Grashof number, the ratio of heights, angle of inclination, and ratio of viscosities on velocity and temperature were investigated, and the results are presented graphically in this paper. It is noted that the increase in buoyancy force incorporated through the Grashof number and the angle of inclination enhanced the axial and transverse velocities and the temperature for the three layers. We found that the Nusselt number increases by increasing the couple stress parameter and magnetic field parameters, and skin friction decreases at the lower plate. The main observation is that temperature and both velocity profiles increased in Region 2 with the increase in the Jeffrey parameter.
