Abstract

Unsteady, pressure driven in the gap between two parallel plates flow of two non- Newtonian incompressible second grade fluids is considered. The governing equations are established for the particular two-layer flow and analytical solutions of the equations that satisfy the imposed boundary conditions are obtained. The velocity of each fluid is expressed as function of the material constants, time dependent pressure gradient and other characteristics of the fluids. As part of the solution, an expression for the interface velocity is derived. We analyze the shift of the velocity maximum from one to another fluid as a function of variety of values of fluids' parameters.
