In this research paper, fully developed natural convection flow in a vertical parallel plate's micro-channel in the presence of viscous dissipation is theoretically examined by using a perturbation series method. The effects of velocity slip and temperature jump are taken to consideration. Due to the presence of viscous dissipation, the momentum and energy equations are coupled system of ordinary differential equations. The influences of Knudsen number, fluid wall interaction parameter, and viscous dissipation on the flow formation and heat transfer aspects are demonstrated through graphs and tables. This result indicates that increasing the value of rarefaction parameter decreases the effect of viscous dissipation on the Nusselt number. Furthermore, it is found that the effects of rarefaction parameter as well as buoyancy parameter on temperature and velocity are significantly pronounced in the case of symmetric heating

In this paper, the viscous dissipation effects on magnetohydrodynamic natural convection flow over a sphere in the presence of heat generation have been described. The governing boundary layer equations are first transformed into a nondimensional form and the resulting nonlinear system of partial differential equations are then solved numerically using finite-difference method together with Keller-box scheme. The numerical results of the surface shear stress in terms of skin friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer in terms of local Nusselt number, velocity as well as temperature profiles are shown graphically and tabular form for a selection of parameters set consisting of heat generation parameter Q, magnetic parameter M, viscous dissipation parameter N and the Prandlt number Pr.

Excellent Method

In this paper, the boundary-layer natural convection flow on a permeable vertical plate with thermal radiation and mass transfer is studied when the plate moves in its own plane. A uniform temperature with uniform species concentration at the plate is affected and the fluid is considered to be a gray, absorbing–emitting. A viscous flow model is presented using boundary-layer theory comprising the momentum, energy, and concentration equations, which is solved analytically by means of an excellent method called homotopy analysis method (HAM). First, a comparison between HAM results and those obtained by means of a higher-order numerical method, namely differential quadrature method (DQM), is done. Close agreement of two sets of results indicates the accuracy of the HAM. The velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions are displayed graphically, and a parametric study is performed in which the effect of various parameters on the skin friction, the local Nusselt number (Nn), and the local Sherwood number (Mu) are investigated.

A mathematical model will be analyzed in order to study the effects of viscous dissipation and Ohmic heating (Joule heating) on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convection flow of a temperature dependent viscosity from heated vertical wavy surface. The present physical problem is studied numerically by using the appropriate variables, which reduce the complex wavy surface into a flat one. An implicit marching Chebyshev collocation scheme is employed for the analysis. Numerical solutions are obtained for velocity, temperature, local skin friction, and Nusselt number for a selection of parameter sets consisting of Eckert number, Prandtl number, MHD variation, and amplitude-wavelength ratio parameter. Numerical results show that these parameters have significant influences on the velocity and the temperature profiles as well as for the local skin friction and Nusselt number
