The present paper deals with the study of three-dimensional boundary layer flow of biomagnetic Maxwell fluid over a plane horizontal surface stretched linearly along two mutually perpendicular directions. Basic principles of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and ferro-hydrodynamics (FHD) have been employed. The effect of heat generation/absorption has been taken into consideration. The study is theoretical and is conducted by using a combination of approximate and numerical techniques. By using the method of similarity transformation, the governing nonlinear partial differential equations are converted into a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. In the sequel, a suitable numerical method has been developed to solve the coupled differential equations. The accuracy of the numerical method has been checked by comparing the numerical results with those of an earlier study reported in available literatures. Effects of various parameters involved in the study, viz. the magnetohydrodynamic and ferromagnetic parameters, Deborah number, stretching ratio and heat generation on the fluid flow profiles are investigated and the results have been presented graphically. Variations of the skin friction, heat transfer rate and relative wall pressure with change in hydrodynamic and ferromagnetic parameters have also been illustrated. It is found that due to the influence of the Kelvin force, the velocity component in [Formula: see text]-direction is greater than the corresponding one in the hydrodynamic case, but the opposite is true for the velocity component in the [Formula: see text]-direction. We also found that the temperature of the fluid for hydrodynamic flow is greater than that for MHD or FHD flow. It is even greater for BFD flows. The numerical results of the study reveal that the characteristics of blood flow are significantly affected by the presence of a magnetic field.

This work is accomplished to investigate the Hall and ion-slip effects on mixed convection three-dimensional flow of a Maxwell fluid over a stretching vertical surface. The problem is first formulated and then nondimensionalized by using suitable variables. The solutions are computed by homotopy analysis method (HAM). The results are compared with the already limiting results. The convergence of derived series solutions is studied. The velocity components and temperature have been examined for several important parameters. Numerical computations for Nusselt number are presented and analyzed.

Fluid flow around single or multiple bluff bodies mounted on a surface has great significance in science and engineering. Understanding the characteristics of different vortices formed around wall-mounted bodies is quite necessary for different applications. Although the case of a single surface mounted cube has been studied extensively, only little attention has been paid to the flow around two or more rectangular blocks in array. Therefore, a CFD code is developed to calculate three dimensional steady state laminar fluid flow around two cuboids of arbitrary size and configuration mounted on a surface in free stream conditions. The employed numerical scheme is finite volume and SIMPLE algorithm is used to treat pressure and velocity coupling. Results are presented for two rectangular blocks of the different size mounted on a surface in various inline arrangements. Streamlines are plotted for blocks of different size ratio. Velocity and pressure distributions are also plotted in the wake region behind the obstacles. It is shown that how the behavior of flow field and vortical structures depend on the respective size and location of the larger block in comparison with the case of two inline wall mounted cubes of the same size.

Using modern EHL programs it is relatively simple to determine the pressures and clearances in rough EHL contacts. The pressures may then be used to calculate the subsurface stresses in the two contacting components. However, the results depend on the assumptions made about the fluid’s rheology. While it is possible to measure the clearances using interferometric techniques, measurement of either the pressures or stresses is extremely difficult. However it is these, rather than the clearances, that determine the life of the contact. In previous papers the authors have described how the inverse method may be used to validate the stress predictions for contacts with transverse roughness. This type of contact has fluid flow in only one plane and it remained necessary to check the results for more general rough surfaces where the flow is three-dimensional. Accordingly, the inverse method is extended, in this paper, to a situation where out-of-plane flow is significant. The paper describes the approach and presents some preliminary results for rolling contacts.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of heat generation or absorption on heat transfer and fluid flow within two- and three-dimensional enclosure for homogeneous medium filled with different metal liquid. Numerical results are presented and analyzed in terms of fluid flow, thermal field structures, as well as average Nusselt number profiles over a wide range of dimensionless quantities, Grashof number (Gr) (104 and 105), SQ (varied between −500 to 500) and Prandtl number (Pr = 0.015, 0.024 and 0.0321). The results indicate that when the conductive regime is established for a Grashof number Gr = 104, the 2D model is valid and predicts all three-dimensional results with negligible difference. This was not the case in the convective regime (Gr = 105) where the effect of the third direction becomes important, where a 2D-3D difference was seen with about 37 per cent. Also, in most cases, the authors find that the heat absorption phenomena have the opposite effect with respect to the heat generation. Design/methodology/approach Numerical results are presented and analyzed in terms of fluid flow, thermal field structures, as well as average Nusselt number profiles over a wide range of dimensionless quantities. Findings Grashof number (Gr) (104 and 105), SQ (varied between −500 to 500) and Prandtl number (Pr = 0.015, 0.024 and 0.0321). Originality/value The results indicate that when the conductive regime is established for a Grashof number Gr = 104, the 2D model is valid and predicts all three-dimensional results with negligible difference.
