ABSTRACTThe present article deals with the influence of the induced magnetic field on an unsteady two dimensional incompressible free convective chemically reacting slip flow of Jeffrey fluid between two parallel plates under the influence of the thermal radiation, Soret and Dufour. It is assumed that the flow is generated due to periodic suction/injection and the non-uniform temperature and concentrations are varying periodically with time at the plates. The governing partial differential equations are reduced into nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and solved by shooting method along with Rung-Kutta 4th order scheme. The results are analyzed for various flows, heat and mass transfer characteristics with respect to various prominent parameters such as the ratio of relaxation to retardation times, Deborah number, magnetic Reynold’s number, Strommer’s number, radiation parameter, chemical reaction parameter, Soret and Dufour numbers in details through graphs and tables. It is observed that the temperature of the fluid is enhanced with Soret and Dufour whereas the concentration is decreased. Also the mass transfer rate of the fluid is enhanced with Strommer’s number, whereas the heat transfer rate decreases with increasing of the Jeffery fluid parameter. The present results have good agreement with published work for Newtonian case.

Our main focus in this paper is to investigate the effects of Soret and Dufour known as thermodiffusion and diffusion-thermo on moving plate in copper water nanofluid. The set of partial differential equations are converted into set of ordinary differential equations using the appropriate similarity variables before being solved numerically using bvp4c code in Matlab software. The results of heat and mass transfer, temperature and concentration profiles on Soret as well as Dufour effects are presented graphically. Soret effect increases the heat transfer rate at the surface while Dufour effect decreases the mass transfer rate at the surface. Since the solutions exist in dual, we carry out the stability solutions to determine which solution is stable and hence the physical meaning is realized physically.

The present paper reports on an analytical and numerical study of combined Soret and Dufour effects on thermosolutal convection in a horizontal porous cavity saturated with an electrically conducting binary fluid under a magnetic field. The horizontal walls of the system are subject to vertical uniform fluxes of heat and mass, whereas the vertical walls are assumed to be adiabatic and impermeable. The main governing parameters of the problem are the Rayleigh, the Hartmann, the Soret, the Dufour and the Lewis numbers, the buoyancy ratio, the enclosure aspect ratio, and the normalized porosity of the porous medium. An asymptotic parallel flow approximation is applied to determine the onset of subcritical nonlinear convection. In addition, a linear stability analysis is performed to predict explicitly the thresholds for the onset of stationary, overstable and oscillatory convection, and the Hopf bifurcation as functions of the governing parameters. The combined effect of a magnetic field, Soret and Dufour parameters have a noticeable influence on the intensity of the convective flow, the heat and mass transfer rates, and the thresholds of linear convection. It is found that the imposition of a magnetic field delays the onset of convection and its intensification can lead to the total suppression of the convective currents. The heat transfer rate increases with the Dufour number and decreases with the Soret number and vice versa for the mass transfer rate.

Explicit finite-difference method was used to obtain the solution of the system of the non-linear ordinary differential equations which transform from the non-linear partial differential equations. These equations describe the steady magneto-hydrodynamic flow of an oldroyd 8-constant non-Newtonian nano-fluid through a non-Darcy porous medium with heat and mass transfer. The induced magnetic field was taken into our consideration. The numerical formula of the velocity, the induced magnetic field, the temperature, the concentration, and the nanoparticle concentration distributions of the problem were illustrated graphically. The effect of the material parameters (α1 α2), Darcy number Da, Forchheimer number Fs, Magnetic Pressure number RH, Magnetic Prandtl number Pm, Prandtl number Pr, Radiation parameter Rn, Dufour number Nd, Brownian motion parameter Nb, Thermophoresis parameter Nt, Heat generation Q, Lewis number Le, and Sort number Ld on those formula were discussed specially in the case of pure Coutte flow (U0 = 1, d <inline-formula> <mml:math display="block"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mover accent="true"> <mml:mi>P</mml:mi> <mml:mo stretchy="true">^</mml:mo> </mml:mover> </mml:mrow> </mml:math> </inline-formula> /dx = 0). Also, an estimation of the global error for the numerical values of the solutions is calculated by using Zadunaisky technique.

The purpose of this research is to see how chemical processes, activation energy, and heat radiation affect MHD flow of Maxwell fluid in a rotating frame. Using applicable similarity transformations, the partial differential equations that regulate the flow are reduced to extremely nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Graphs and tables are used to study the impact of monitoring parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, reduced Nusselt number, reduced Sherwood numbers, and skin friction coefficients. Outstanding agreement is obtained when the present findings of the study is compared with the previous related research works. In the study, it is noted that an increase of the thermal radiation parameters contributes to an increase of the flow temperature region. When a fluid is subjected to a greater rotation parameter, the thermal boundary layer thickens and the heat transfer rate decrease. Moreover, a decline of mass transfer rate is observed for a rise of Prandl number, rotational parameter or Deborah number.

The objective of the present study is to investigate the first-order chemical reaction and Soret and Dufour effects on an incompressible MHD combined free and forced convection heat and mass transfer of a micropolar fluid through a porous medium between two parallel plates. Assume that there are a periodic injection and suction at the lower and upper plates. The nonuniform temperature and concentration of the plates are assumed to be varying periodically with time. A suitable similarity transformation is used to reduce the governing partial differential equations into nonlinear ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically by the quasilinearization method. The fluid flow and heat and mass transfer characteristics for various parameters are analyzed in detail and shown in the form of graphs. It is observed that the concentration of the fluid decreases whereas the temperature of the fluid enhances with the increasing of chemical reaction and Soret and Dufour parameters.

A theoretical and numerical examination has been completed to talk about the unsteady, two dimensional slip flow of a nanofluid of heat and mass transfer with transverse magnetic field was investigated in this paper. A stretching surface is used to investigate the flow. Obtained nonlinear equations are solved by Spectral Relaxation Method (SRM) technique and the results are verified by comparing the results obtained by using the Matlab in-built boundary value problem solver bvp4c, and the outcomes which are published in previous papers. The outcomes are exhibited pictorially and talked about difference coming about parameters. Expanding heat transfer rate, mass transfer rate and velocity slip raises velocity yet to be diminishes temperature and skin friction (surface shear stress).

Abstract This article aims to study theoretically the combined magneto hydrodynamic flows of casson viscoplastic nanofluid from a horizontal isothermal circular cylinder in non-Darcy porous medium. The impacts of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are consolidated and studied. The governing partial differential equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using suitable non-similarity transformation and are solved numerically using Keller-Box finite difference technique. The numerical method is validated with previous published work and the results are found to be in excellent agreement. Numerical results for velocity, temperature, concentration along with skin friction coefficient, heat and mass transfer rate are discussed for various values of physical parameters. It is observed that velocity, heat and mass transfer rate are increased with increasing casson fluid parameter whereas temperature, concentration and skin friction are decreased. Velocity is reduced with increasing Forchheimer parameter whereas temperature and nano-particle concentration are both enhanced. An increase in magnetic parameter is seen to increase temperature and concentration whereas velocity, skin friction heat and mass transfer rate are decreased. The present model finds applications in electric-conductive nano-materials of potential use in aviation and different enterprises, energy systems and thermal enhancement of industrial flow processes.

The heat and mass transfer characteristics on hydromagnetic squeeze flow of Jeffrey nanofluid between two plates over a permeable medium by slip condition with the influences of viscous dissipation and chemical reaction is examined. Buongiorno’s nanofluid model, which includes Brownian motion and thermophoresis impacts, is implemented in this research. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed to the nonlinear ordinary differential equations via asimilarity transformation. The transformed equations are solved by employing numerical techniques of Keller-box. A comparison of the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers with reported outputs in the journals are carried out to validate the present outputs. An excellent agreement is found. The results show that the squeezing of plates accelerates the velocity and wall shear stress. Furthermore, the velocity, temperature and concentration profile decrease when the Hartmann number and ratio of relaxation and retardation times increases. The raise in thermophoresis and viscous dissipation elevate the temperature profile and the heat transfer rate. Furthermore, the mass transfer rate declines due to the strong Brownian motion in the nanofluid, whereas it increases with the addition of chemical reaction and thermophoresis.

This paper presents a mathematical model analysis of heat and mass transfer in a two-dimensional flow of electrically conducting, thermally radiative, and chemically reactive Maxwell nanofluid towards a vertical stretching and permeable sheet embedded in a porous medium. Boundary layer approximation and suitable transformations are used to reduce the governing differential equations convenient for computation. Eventually, the transformed nonlinear differential equations along with the corresponding boundary conditions are solved in the framework of optimal homotopy analysis method. The effects of induced magnetic field, buoyancy force, viscous dissipation, heat source, Joule heating, and convective boundary condition are analyzed in detail. The rates of heat, mass, and momentum transfer with respect to the relevant parameters are also examined in terms of the local Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and skin friction coefficients, respectively. Among the many results of the study, it is shown that the induced magnetic field, flow velocity, and temperature profiles are increasing functions of the Maxwell parameter. The results of the present study are also in a close agreement with previously published results under common assumptions.
