Abstract

This article addresses the time-dependent two-phase magnetohydrodynamic squeezing flow of dusty liquid. The fluid flow is considered in a rotating channel. The flow is constructed by squeezing of an upper plate and stretching of the lower plate and relevant equations are obtained. Numerical results are computed by utilizing shooting method along with the RK–Fehlberg scheme. The obtained solutions are validated by comparison with the existing analytical solutions. The effects of pertinent parameters on velocities of both phases are comprehensively discussed through graphical results. The numerical values of shear stress of both phases at lower and upper walls are also tabulated. Furthermore, the slope of the linear regression line through data points is determined in order to quantify the increase/decrease. Numerical simulations disclosed that the normal and transverse velocities are decreased due to stronger Coriolis force.
