ITRODUCTIO Th sudy of dynamics of fluid paricl suspnsion has applicaions in many branchs of Enginring as wll as Environmnal, Physical and Biological branchs. Th flow of dissolvd micro molculs of fibr suspnsions in papr making, h using dus in gas cooling sysms o nhanc ha ransfr procsss, h movmn of dus laid in air and h flow of blood hrough Arris ar som xampls of fluid paricl suspnsions. Saffman [] proposd a modl o dscrib h flow of a fluid paricl suspnsion which on accoun of is rlaiv simpliciy has aracd h anion of many workrs in h fild of fluid dynamics. In his modl h ffc of h paricl dus suspndd in h fluid is dscribd by wo paramrs; h concnraion of h dus paricls and a rlaxaion im which masurs h ra a which h vlociy of a dus paricl adjuss o changs in h fluid vlociy and dpnds upon h siz of h individual paricls. H drivd h quaions of moion for his fluid undr h following simplifying assumpion: (i) Th dus paricls ar of uniform siz and uniform shap; (ii) Th fluid vlociy, h dus paricl vlociy and numbr dnsiy ar rspcivly dnod by h vcor fild u s ( x, ) and scalar fild ( x, ). (iii) Th bulk concnraion of h dus (mass of dus paricls in a volum lmn/mass of h fluid volum lmn conaining h dus paricls) is vry small so ha h n ffc of h dus on h fluid is quivaln o an xra forc K( u us ) pr uni volum ( K is a consan, h Rynolds numbr of h rlaiv moion of dus and h fluid is small compard wih uniy so ha h forc bwn dus and fluid paricl is proporional o h rlaiv vlociy). Assuming h fluid o b incomprssibl and h bulk concnraion is small; Saffman [] has drivd h quaions of moion of a dusy fluid (or a fluid paricl suspnsion) as: div = 0 () q ρ ( + ( q. ) q ) = p + µ q K ( q qs m ( + ( q. ) qs ) = K ( qs q) (3) div = 0 (4) whr P = Prssur (lss han hydrosaic prssur) ρ = dnsiy µ = viscosiy of h fluid whn hr is no suspnsion of dus paricls, assuming h dus paricls ar sphrs of radius a, K = 6 µu a using Soks drag formula. In his papr w sudy h flow of a fluid paricl suspnsion bwn wo horizonal rigid paralll plas suddnly s in moion wih h sam spd say U. Iniially h plas as wll as fluid in bwn ar assumd o b a rs. Suddnly a im = 0 h plas sar moving in hir own plan wih vlociy U, in h sam dircion. Th sudy of his problm is moivad by a rmarkabl papr of Erdogan [3] in which h sudid som unsady unidircional viscous fluid flows gnrad by an impulsiv moion of a boundary on a suddn applicaion of q s ) () 367

H has obaind h soluion in a sris form and simad h flow fild variabls for divrs valus of spac variabls and im. In his papr, w considr h problm for h cas of a fluid paricl suspnsion. W ak h Laplac Transform for h govrning quaions wih rlvan boundary and iniial condiions and obain h analyical xprssions for h flow fild quaniis in Laplac Transforms domain. In viw of h complxiy of hs xprssions, analyical invrsion is no possibl and hnc a numrical approach is adopd o find h quaniis in spac im domain by invring h xprssion in Laplac ransform domain o h spac im domain by invring h xprssions in Laplac ransform domain o h spac im domain. Th variaion of flow fild variabls is sudid numrically.
