AbstractThe present study analyzes the comparison of the Xue and Yamada-Ota models for a hybrid nanoliquid flow in porous media occurring amidst a rotating channel with surface catalyzed reaction. Here, the hybrid nanofluid flow is studied under the effect of Cattaneo Christov (C–C) heat flux and homogenous heterogeneous (Homo-Hetero) chemical reaction with entropy generation minimization analysis. The assumptions of the viscosity of hybrid nanomaterial fluid and variable thermal conductivity are added characteristics to the inimitability of the flow model. Two kinds of nanoparticles, namely single-wall carbon nanotubes and multi-wall carbon nanotubes with ethylene glycol (EG) as the base fluid are considered. Carbon nanotubes possess diverse applications in daily life including energy storage, drug delivery, cancer treatment, tissue generation, platelet activation, magnetic force microscopy, and microwave absorption, etc. Similarity transformations are utilized to translate the modeled problem into the coupled ordinary differential equations. This system of ordinary differential equations is addressed numerically. The graphical outcomes are scrutinized by utilizing the MATLAB software bvp4c function. The results revealed that the velocity profile decreases for the higher rotation parameter while increases for the escalated slip parameter. Furthermore, the fluid concentration and temperature are on the decline for higher surface catalyzed reaction and thermal relaxation parameters respectively.

AbstractThe key objective of the present research is to examine the hybrid magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) nanofluid (Carbon-nanotubes and ferrous oxide–water) CNT–Fe3O4/H2 flow into a horizontal parallel channel with thermal radiation through squeezing and dilating porous walls. The parting motion is triggered by the porous walls of the channel. The fluid flow is time-dependent and laminar. The channel is asymmetric and the upper and lower walls are distinct in temperature and are porous. With the combination of nanoparticles of Fe3O4 and single and multi-wall carbon nanotubes, the hybrid nanofluid principle is exploited. By using the similarity transformation, the set of partial differential equations (PDEs) of this mathematical model, governed by momentum and energy equations, is reduced to corresponding ordinary differential equations (ODEs). A very simple numerical approach called the Runge–Kutta system of order four along with the shooting technique is used to achieve the solutions for regulating ODEs. MATLAB computing software is used to create temperature and velocity profile graphs for various emerging parameters. At the end of the manuscript, the main conclusions are summarized. Through different graphs, it is observed that hybrid-nanofluid has more prominent thermal enhancement than simple nanofluid. Further, the single-wall nanotubes have dominated impact on temperature than the multi-wall carbon nanotubes. From the calculations, it is also noted that Fe2O3–MWCNT–water has an average of 4.84% more rate of heat transfer than the Fe2O3–SWCNT–water. On the other hand, 8.27% more heat flow observed in Fe2O3–SWCNT–water than the simple nanofluid. Such study is very important in coolant circulation, inter-body fluid transportation, aerospace engineering, and industrial cleaning procedures, etc.

Nanofluids are a novel class of heat transfer fluid that plays a vital role in industries. In mathematical investigations, these fluids are modeled in terms of traditional integer-order partial differential equations (PDEs). It is recognized that traditional PDEs cannot decode the complex behavior of physical flow parameters and memory effects. Therefore, this article intends to study the mixed convection heat transfer in nanofluid over an inclined vertical plate via fractional derivatives approach. The problem in hand is modeled in connection with Atangana-Baleanu fractional derivatives without singular and local kernel having strong memory. The human blood is considered as base fluid dispersing carbon nanotube (CNTs) (single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs )) into it to form blood-CNTs nanofluid. The nanofluids are considered to flow in a saturated porous medium under the influence of an applied magnetic field. The exact analytical expressions for velocity and temperature profiles are acquired using the Laplace transform technique and plotted in various graphs. The empirical results indicate that the memory effect decreases with increasing fractional parameters in the case of both temperature and velocity profiles. Moreover, the temperature profile is higher for blood-SWCNTs by reason of higher thermal conductivity whereas, this trend is opposite in case of velocity profile due densities difference.

Flow And Heat Transfer

The flow and heat transfer characteristics of both single-wall and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with water and kerosene as base fluid on a moving plate with slip effect are studied numerically. By employing similarity transformation, governing equations are transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary equations. These equations are solved numerically using the bvp4c solver in Matlab which is a very efficient finite difference method. The influence of numerous parameters such as nanoparticle volume fraction, velocity ratio parameter and first order slip parameter on velocity, temperature, skin friction and heat transfer rate are further explored and discussed in the form of graphical and tabular forms. The results reveal that dual solutions exist when the plate and free stream move in the opposite direction and slip parameter was found to widen the range of the possible solutions. However, skin friction coefficients decrease, whereas the heat transfer increases in the presence of slip parameter. Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) give higher skin friction and heat transfer compared to multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) due to the fact that they have higher density and thermal conductivity. A stability analysis is carried out to determine the stability of the solutions obtained.

This article comprises the study of three-dimensional squeezing flow of (CNT-SiO2/H2O) hybrid nanofluid. The flow is confined inside a rotating channel whose lower wall is stretchable as well as permeable. Heat transfer with viscous dissipation is a main subject of interest. We have analyzed mathematically the benefits of hybridizing SiO 2 -based nanofluid with carbon nanotubes ( CNTs ) nanoparticles. To describe the effective thermal conductivity of the CNTs -based nanofluid, a renovated Hamilton–Crosser model (RHCM) has been employed. This model is an extension of Hamilton and Crosser’s model because it also incorporates the effect of the interfacial layer. For the present flow scenario, the governing equations (after the implementation of similarity transformations) results in a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). We have solved that system of ODEs, coupled with suitable boundary conditions (BCs), by implementing a newly proposed modified Hermite wavelet method (MHWM). The credibility of the proposed algorithm has been ensured by comparing the procured results with the result obtained by the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg solution. Moreover, graphical assistance has also been provided to inspect the significance of various embedded parameters on the temperature and velocity profile. The expression for the local Nusselt number and the skin friction coefficient were also derived, and their influential behavior has been briefly discussed.

We presented here three carbon-nanomaterials-based modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) with Ni–Ag nanohybrid nanoparticles (NPs) deposited upon, including single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and the mesoporous carbons (MPCs), and compared their morphology effects on both Ni–Ag deposition quality and electrocatalytic performances toward Glu oxidation. After being deposited with Ni–Ag NPs, a homogenous surface with very small Ni–Ag NPs was obtained for Ni–Ag/SWCNTs/GCE, while heterogeneous, coarse surfaces with obvious embedment with large Ni–Ag particles were observed for both Ni–Ag/MWCNTs/GCE and Ni–Ag/MPC/GCE. All three modified electrodes were well characterized in terms of surface morphology, electron transfer rate, hydrophilicity, interference resistance, stability, electrocatalytic behaviors as well as practicability in real samples, based on which Ni–Ag/SWCNTs/GCE was always proved to be more advantageous over other two composite electrodes. Such advantage of Ni–Ag/SWCNTs/GCE was attributed to its desirable surface morphology good for Ni–Ag deposition and exposure of as many active sites as possible to Glu oxidation, leading to the extraordinary electrocatalytic performance.

The Impact

The aim of this article is to study time dependent rotating single-wall electrically conducting carbon nanotubes with aqueous suspensions under the influence of nonlinear thermal radiation in a permeable medium. The impact of viscous dissipation is taken into account. The basic governing equations, which are in the form of partial differential equations (PDEs), are transformed to a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) suitable for transformations. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is applied for the solution. The effect of numerous parameters on the temperature and velocity fields is explanation by graphs. Furthermore, the action of significant parameters on the mass transportation and the rates of fiction factor are determined and discussed by plots in detail. The boundary layer thickness was reduced by a greater rotation rate parameter in our established simulations. Moreover, velocity and temperature profiles decreased with increases of the unsteadiness parameter. The action of radiation phenomena acts as a source of energy to the fluid system. For a greater rotation parameter value, the thickness of the thermal boundary layer decreases. The unsteadiness parameter rises with velocity and the temperature profile decreases. Higher value of augments the strength of frictional force within a liquid motion. For greater and ; the heat transfer rate rises. Temperature profile reduces by rising values of .

A coupled system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations that models the three-dimensional flow of a nanofluid in a rotating channel on a lower permeable stretching porous wall is derived. The mathematical equations are derived from the Navier-Stokes equations where the governing equations are normalized by suitable similarity transformations. The fluid in the rotating channel is water that contains different nanoparticles: silver, copper, copper oxide, titanium oxide, and aluminum oxide. The differential transform method (DTM) is employed to solve the coupled system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The effects of the following physical parameters on the flow are investigated: characteristic parameter of the flow, rotation parameter, the magnetic parameter, nanoparticle volume fraction, the suction parameter, and different types of nanoparticles. Results are illustrated graphically and discussed in detail.
