Abstrakt: The main theme of this paper is a numerical investigation of fluid-particle flow in a channel with aslant walls (divergent channel) by taking thermal slip and Ohmic heating into account. The shooting technique with the RK-4 method is exploited to solve the system of dimensionless equations. Graphical discussions of the effects of emerging factors have been conducted for both fluid and particle aspects of temperature and velocity profiles. A perfect match is found when the current results are compared to the previous ones. The results reveal that the fluid phase temperature diminishes but particle phase temperature improves with an augmentation of the thermal slip parameter. These types of flows are used by a variety of industries, including the processing of waste water, mines, petrochemical sectors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
