Abstract

Several types of new planar exact solutions are derived for skew-symmetric couple stress fluid flows. These solutions are obtained by assuming the stream function as a finite sum of constituent functions with different arguments. A large class of spatially periodic new exact solutions are constructed from the first family of solutions. The derived solutions are having complex two-dimensional vortex structures which generalizes the Taylor vortices. All the derived solutions are superposable in such a way that any finite linear combination of the solutions are again exact solutions. Exact solutions for Navier–Stokes equations of motion are also derived as a special case of these flows. Several explicit exact solutions are discussed and illustrated in the paper.
