Effects of temperature-dependent viscosity on fluid flow and heat transfer in a helical rectangular duct with a finite pitch

An incompressible fully developed laminar flow in a helical rectangular duct having finite pitch and curvature with temperature-dependent viscosity under heating condition is studied in this work. Both the cases of one wall heated and four walls heated are studied. The cross-sectional dimensions of...
