This article examines entropy production (EP) of magneto-hydrodynamics viscous fluid flow model (MHD-VFFM) subject to a variable thickness surface with heat sink/source effect by utilizing the intelligent computing paradigm via artificial Levenberg–Marquardt back propagated neural networks (ALM-BPNNs). The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) of MHD-VFFM are transformed into ODEs by applying suitable similarity transformations. The reference dataset is obtained from Adam numerical solver by the variation of Hartmann number (Ha), thickness parameter [Formula: see text], power index ([Formula: see text], thermophoresis parameter (Nt), Brinkman number (Br), Lewis number (Le) and Brownian diffusion parameter (Nb) for all scenarios of proposed ALM-BPNN. The reference data samples arbitrary selected for training/testing/validation are used to find and analyze the approximated solutions of proposed ALM-BPNNs as well as comparison with reference results. The excellent performance of ALM-BPNN is consistently endorsed by Mean Squared Error (MSE) convergence curves, regression index and error histogram analysis. Intelligent computing based investigation suggests that the rise in values of Ha declines the velocity of the fluid motion but converse trend is seen for growing values of [Formula: see text]. The rising values of Ha, Nt and Br improve the heat transfer but converse trend is seen for growing values of [Formula: see text]. The inclining values of Nt incline the mass transfer but it shows reverse behavior for escalating values of Le. The inclining values of Br incline the EP.

In this article investigation has been conducted on the effects of Hall parameter, rotation parameter and Joule heating on the entropy generation of fully developed electrically conducting Poiseuille flow. The coupled system of ordinary differential equations for the flow are obtained, non-dimensionalised and solutions are constructed by Adomian decomposition technique. The effects of Hall current, Ion-slip, Joule heating and magnetic parameters on the velocity, temperature, entropy generation and Bejan number are explained and shown graphically. The results indicate that fluid entropy generation is induced by increase in Hall current, rotation and Joule heating parameters. Furthermore Bejan number is accelerated by Hall current, rotation, Magnetic and Joule heating parameters which signifies that heat transfer irreversibility dominates entropy generation.

This paper reports the entropy generation of a two-dimensional, non-isothermal, steady, hydrodynamically and thermally fully-developed flow of an incompressible, non-Newtonian shear thinning fluid between two infinite parallel plates. The inelastic fluid is modeled by a two parameter Carreau constitutive equation with an exponential temperature dependence of viscosity. Temperature dependence of the fluid is modeled through Arrhenius law. Momentum and energy balance equations, which govern the flow, are coupled, and this nonlinear boundary value problem is solved numerically using a Pseudospectral method based on the Chebyshev polynomials. The effect of various flow controlling parameters on velocity, temperature and entropy generation is analyzed. The results indicated that Brinkman number and activation energy have opposite effects on entropy generation due to heat transfer. In contrast to the power-law index, an increase in the material time constant results in a decrease in the Bejan Number.
