Description
Summary:Analytical and semi-analytical solutions are presented for the cases of channel and pipe flows with wallslip for viscoelastic fluids described by the simplified PTT (using both the exponential and the linearizedkernel) and the Giesekus models. The slip laws used are the linear and nonlinear Navier, the Hatzikiriakosand the asymptotic models. For the nonlinear Navier slip only natural numbers can be used for the exponent of the tangent stress in order to obtain analytical solutions. For other values of the exponent andother nonlinear laws a numerical scheme is required, and thus, the solution is semi-analytical. For thesecases the intervals containing the solution and the corresponding proof for the existence and uniquenessare also presented. For the Giesekus model the influence of the wall slip on the restrictions of the slipmodels is also investigated.
