β¦ Synopsis
A mathematical mixing procedure of two homogeneous viscous Β―uids is proposed. These Β―uids are separated by a rapidly oscillating interface of period and constant amplitude. The mixture is obtained in a region around the interface as tends to zero. The so-called homogenization equation, which governs the mixture behavior, is presented. Using standard homogenization tools and a compactness result, the convergence of the Β―uid velocity to the corresponding homogenized solution is proved. An analogous result for the Β―uid pressure is also studied.

## Abstract The problem of fully developed laminar mixed convection flow in a vertical wavy channel filled with two immiscible viscous fluids is studied analytically. Nonβlinear equations governing the motion have been solved by linearization technique, wherein the flow is assumed to be in two part
