Abstract

In this article, the influence of reabsorption on steady flow of viscous incompressible Newtonian fluid through a permeable channel is presented. Perturbation solution is used to get the expressions for the velocities, mean pressure drop, shear stress at the wall and stream function. The influence of reabsorption on the velocities, wall shear stress, mean pressure drop and streamlines are discussed through graphs. The results of the model is applicable to the physiological problem of flow through renal tubules.
