Layer Flow

The steady boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a viscous fluid on a moving flat plate in a parallel free stream with variable fluid properties are studied. Two special cases, namely, constant fluid properties and variable fluid viscosity, are considered. The transformed boundary layer equations are solved numerically by a finite-difference scheme known as Keller-box method. Numerical results for the flow and the thermal fields for both cases are obtained for various values of the free stream parameter and the Prandtl number. It is found that dual solutions exist for both cases when the fluid and the plate move in the opposite directions. Moreover, fluid with constant properties shows drag reduction characteristics compared to fluid with variable viscosity.

Fluid Properties

Combined convection and radiation in simultaneously developing laminar flow and heat transfer is numerically considered with a discrete-direction method. Coupled heat transfer in absorbing emitting but not scattering gases is presented in some cases of practical situations such as combustion of natural gas, propane and heavy fuel. Numerical calculations are performed to evaluate the thermal radiation effects on heat transfer through combustion products flowing inside circular ducts. The radiative properties of the flowing gases are modeled by using the absorption distribution function (ADF) model. The fluid is a mixture of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and nitrogen. The flow and energy balance equations are solved simultaneously with temperature dependent fluid properties. The bulk mean temperature variations and Nusselt numbers are shown for a uniform inlet temperature. Total, radiative and convective mean Nusselt numbers and their axial evolution for different gas mixtures produced by combustion with oxygen are explored.

Walters B Fluid

MHD viscoelastic (Walters’-B) fluid flow close to the stagnation point region along an extending plate with the changeable fluid properties’ influences has been debated. Heat transfer’s features are scrutinized via Cattaneo–Christov (CC) theory. The mathematical model for the physical problem is tackled numerically via Chebyshev pseudospectral (CPS) technique. The existing outcomes are supported by recent research and have acquired a suitable agreement. The numerical outcomes reveal that temperature fields are more pronounced for Fourier’s law case. Further, the opposite behavior is noticed with the heat transfer rate. Higher values of the conjugate parameter result in an increment of the heat transfer rate and temperature field. Fluid flow’s features, as well as physical quantities, are substantially varied via variable fluid properties.
