The flow of conducting Carreau fluid on a permeable stretching/shrinking surface is analytically investigated by considering the thermal radiation, mass transfer, and cross diffusion effects. A uniform external magnetic field is employed which gives rise to Hall current. The nonlinear PDEs are converted to a set of ODEs using similarity transformations. The developed ODEs are solved using the well established mathematical procedure of Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). The influence of associated parameters over the state variables of the Carreau fluid are analytically studied and discussed through different graphs. It is found that fluid velocity augments (drops) with the rising power law index and Hall parameter (velocity slip and material parameters). The temperature field increases with the higher Dufour number and radiation parameter values, and decreases with larger Prandtl number. The concentration field augments with the larger Soret number and velocity slip parameter values whereas drops with the rising Schmidt number. The variations in skin friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are discussed using tables and it is noticed that the mass and heat energy transfer rates are controlled by the varying values of Dufour and Soret parameters. The comparison between present and published work shows complete agreement.

AbstractIn many chemical engineering processes, a chemical reaction between a foreign mass and the fluid does occur. These processes find relevance in polymer production, oxidation of solid materials, ceramics or glassware manufacturing, tubular reactors, food processing, and synthesis of ceramic materials. Therefore, an exploration of homogeneous first-order chemical reaction effects on heat and mass transfer along with entropy analysis of Jeffrey liquid flow towards a stretched isothermal porous sheet is performed. Fluid is conducting electrically in the company of transverse magnetic field. Variations in heat and mass transfer mechanisms are accounted in the presence of viscous dissipation, heat source/sink and cross-diffusion aspects. The partial differential equations system governing the heat transfer of Jeffery liquid is reformed to the ordinary differential system through relevant transformations. Numerical solutions based on Runge-Kutta shooting method are obtained for the subsequent nonlinear problem. A parametric exploration is conducted to reveal the tendency of the solutions. The present study reveals that the Lorentz force due to magnetism can be used as a key parameter to control the flow fields. Entropy number is larger for higher values of Deborah and Brinkman numbers. It is also established that the concentration species field and its layer thickness of the Jeffery liquid decreases for a stronger chemical reaction aspect. To comprehend the legitimacy of numerical results a comparison with the existing results is made in this exploration and alleged an admirable agreement.

Diffusion Effects

Natural convective heat and mass transfer with Soret effect and Dufour effect is experimental studied in this paper to investigate the diffusion characteristic of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in multi-physical fields. Firstly, Soret effect (thermal diffusion effect) experiment is conducted. The transfer process of isobutane and nitrogen in two close container connected by a small-diameter pipe is experimental studied. The results show that temperature difference between the two containers would conduct a solute concentration difference. Furthermore, multi-component convective diffusion experiment in a closed cavity which simulate indoor environment is developed under temperature gradient, humidity and propane gas concentration gradients. In this experiment, Temperature, humidity and concentration of propane could be surveyed real-time and do not interfere the natural convection in the closed cavity. The experiment results show that that the temperature gradient and the water vapor concentration gradient have effects on the convective diffusion of VOCs indoor environment. The cross diffusion effects would be taken into consideration for the problem of simultaneous heat and mass transfer especially in the presence of large temperature and concentration gradients.

The paper presents the numerical investigation of the convection heat and mass transfer in a hydromagnetic Carreau fluid past a vertical porous plate in presence of thermal radiation and thermal diffusion. The non-linear partial differential equations governing the flow are transformed into ordinary differential equations using the usual similarity method and the resulting similarity equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta shooting method. The results are presented as velocity, temperature and concentration profiles for different values of parameters entering into the problem. The effects of suction, magnetic field, thermal radiation and thermal diffusion on the skin friction, rate of heat transfer and mass transfer are presented numerically in tabular form.

A computational simulation of two-dimensional magnetic-Carreau fluid in a suspension of gyrotactic microorganisms past a slendering sheet with variable thickness is investigated for slenderness parameters varied in the range of –0.2 to 1.0. Owing to the noticeable implication in various engineering applications, the effects of multiple slip is considered in the present simulation along with the Soret and the Dufour effects for the heat and mass transfer controlling process. The numerical values of the velocity, temperature, concentration, and the density of the motile organisms are computed by the robust Runge–Kutta-based Newton’s scheme. The thermal and concentration boundary layer are changed with the increase in the multiple slip parameters such as velocity slip, temperature slip, concentration slip, and diffusion slip parameters. With the rise in the Carreau fluid power index parameter, the velocity field increases while it declines with the velocity slip and magnetic field parameter. The increasing values of velocity slip, Dufour number, Soret number, and magnetic parameter boost up the density of the motile organism profiles for different slenderness parameter considered in the present study. The effect of the nondimensional factors on the skin friction, local Nusselt, local Sherwood, and the density numbers of the motile organisms are discussed with the assistance of the table for three different slenderness parameters. It is found that multiple slip parameters enable to control the heat and mass transfer rate. Finally, both the qualitative and quantitative comparisons of the present results with previous study are presented in the tabular form and are found to be in excellent agreement.
