AbstractIn this paper, a numerical study of MHD steady flow due to a rotating disk with mixed convection, Darcy Forchheimer’s porous media, thermal radiation, and heat generation/absorption effects are explored. A strong magnetic field is applied in perpendicular direction to the flow which governs the Hall current effects. Homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions are also taken into account. For the simplification of partial differential equations (PDEs) into the nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs), the method of generalized Von Karman similarity transformations is employed, and the resulting non-dimensional ordinary differential equations are solved by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Effects of different parameters on the axial, radial and tangential velocity profiles, temperature and concentration of chemical reaction profiles are analyzed and discussed. The present work’s remarkable finding is that with the expansion of nanoparticles size, dimensionless constant parameter, local Grashof number, porosity parameter, Hall current, and suction parameter, the nanofluid radial velocity is enhanced. For the higher values of magnetic field parameter, the tangential velocity and nanofluid temperature are enhanced. The magnetic field parameter and the disk thickness coefficient parameter have similar impacts on the axial velocity profile. Heterogeneous chemical reaction parameter decreases the concentration of chemical reaction profile. The nanoparticles volume fraction increases the concentration of chemical reaction profile. Furthermore, the present results are found to be in excellent agreement with previously published work in tabulated form.

In the present work, two dimensional flow of a hyperbolic tangent fluid with chemical reaction and viscous dissipation near a stagnation point is discussed numerically. The analysis is performed in the presence of magnetic field. The governing partial differential equations are converted into non-linear ordinary differential equations by using appropriate transformation. The resulting higher order non-linear ordinary differential equations are discretized by finite difference method and then solved by SOR (Successive over Relaxation parameter) method. The impact of the relevant parameters is scrutinized by plotting graphs and discussed in details. The main conclusion is that the large value of magnetic field parameter and wiessenberg numbers decrease the streamwise and normal velocity while increase the temperature distribution. Also higher value of the Eckert number Ec results in increases in temperature profile.

AbstractThe present investigation involves the Hall current effects past a low oscillating stretchable rotating disk with Joule heating and the viscous dissipation impacts on a Ferro-nanofluid flow. The entropy generation analysis is carried out to study the impact of rotational viscosity by applying a low oscillating magnetic field. The model gives the continuity, momentum, temperature, magnetization, and rotational partial differential equations. These equations are transformed into the ODEs and solved by using bvp4c MATLAB. The graphical representation of arising parameters such as effective magnetization and nanoparticle concentration on thermal profile, velocity profile, and rate of disorder along with Bejan number is presented. Drag force and the heat transfer rate are given in the tabular form. It is comprehended that for increasing nanoparticle volume fraction and magnetization parameter, the radial, and tangential velocity reduce while thermal profile surges. The comparison of present results for radial and axial velocity profiles with the existing literature shows approximately the same results.

This work is focused on the numerical study of thermodiffusion, inclination of the plate, order of chemical reaction, Diffusion-thermo and thermal radiation effects on a steady magnetohydrodynamic convective flow over an inclined plate in a porous medium under the influence of viscous dissipation along with the application of heat generation/ absorption effects. The partial differential equations governing the fluid flow are transformed into coupled non dimensional ordinary differential equations with the help of similarity transformations. Suitable codes in MATLAB’s built in solver bvp4c, which is a highly accurate and efficient solver of MATLAB, are developed to solve these coupled ordinary differential equations numerically. The behaviour of the fluid velocity, temperature and species concentration for variations in the various thermo-physical parameters are illustrated via graphs. From the numerical results it is evident that the heat and mass transfer of the fluid are significantly influenced by the order of chemical reaction, thermal radiation, inclination of the plate, Soret and Dufour effects. Results obtained in this paper may be useful in the field of chemical industries, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering. Gas separating instruments can be installed in big cities as an engineering application so that harmful pollutants can be removed which are present in small quantities mixed with air.

This communication reports, the flow of Cu-water dusty nanofluid past a centrifugally stretching surface under the effect of second order slip and convective boundary conditions. The coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations are get hold of from the partial differential equations which are derived from the conservation of momentum and energy of both nanofluid and dusty phases. Then, using apt resemblance transformation these ordinary differential equations were altered into a dimensionless form and then solved by bvp5c solver in Matlab software. The variation in velocity and temperature profiles of fluid and dusty phases for different parameters are thrash out in depth by figures and tables. The outcomes exhibit that the velocity profile of both fluid and dusty phases boot as the values of the dust particle volume fraction parameter is enlarged. Besides, the magnetic field parameter has similar effect on the velocity profile of both fluid and dusty phases. Also, the results illustrated that temperature profile of both Cu-water nanofluid and dusty particle phases are improved within an enhancement in the values of the temperature relaxation parameter, Cu-particle volume fraction, and Biot number. The results also confirm that for greater values of the magnetic field parameter the values of skin friction coefficient are enlarged for all values of the velocity ratio parameter.

Abstract A study has been carried for a viscous, incompressible electrically conducting MHD blood flow with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and viscosity through a stretching surface in the presence of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, and chemical reaction. The flow is subjected to a uniform transverse magnetic field normal to the flow. The governing coupled partial differential equations are converted into a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODE) using similarity analysis. The resultant non-linear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically using the boundary value problem solver (bvp4c) in MATLAB with a convincible accuracy. The effects of the physical parameters such as viscosity parameter ( μ ( T ˜ b ) ) \left({\mu ({{\tilde T}_b})} \right) , permeability parameter (β), magnetic field parameter (M), Local Grashof number (Gr) for thermal diffusion, Local modified Grashof number for mass diffusion (Gm), the Eckert number (Ec), the thermal conductivity parameter ( K ( T ˜ b ) ) \left({K({{\tilde T}_b})} \right) on the velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are presented graphically. The physical visualization of flow parameters that appeared in the problem is discussed with the help of various graphs to convey the real life application in industrial and engineering processes. A comparison has been made with previously published work and present study revels the good agreement with the published work. This study will be helpful in the clinical healing of pathological situations accompanied by accelerated circulation.

AbstractThe nanofluids owing to their alluring attributes like enhanced thermal conductivity and better heat transfer characteristics have a vast variety of applications ranging from space technology to nuclear reactors etc. The present study highlights the Ostwald-de-Waele nanofluid flow past a rotating disk of variable thickness in a porous medium with a melting heat transfer phenomenon. The surface catalyzed reaction is added to the homogeneous-heterogeneous reaction that triggers the rate of the chemical reaction. The added feature of the variable thermal conductivity and the viscosity instead of their constant values also boosts the novelty of the undertaken problem. The modeled problem is erected in the form of a system of partial differential equations. Engaging similarity transformation, the set of ordinary differential equations are obtained. The coupled equations are numerically solved by using the bvp4c built-in MATLAB function. The drag coefficient and Nusselt number are plotted for arising parameters. The results revealed that increasing surface catalyzed parameter causes a decline in thermal profile more efficiently. Further, the power-law index is more influential than the variable thickness disk index. The numerical results show that variations in dimensionless thickness coefficient do not make any effect. However, increasing power-law index causing an upsurge in radial, axial, tangential, velocities, and thermal profile.

Purpose This study aims to focus on second grade fluid flow over a rotating disk in the presence of chemical reaction. Uniform magnetic field is also taken into account. Because of the smaller magnetic Reynolds number, induced magnetic field is negligible. Heat equation is constructed by considering heat source/sink. Design/methodology/approach Suitable variables are used to transform nonlinear partial differential equations to ordinary ones. Convergent series solutions are attained by applying homotopy analysis method. Findings Trends of different parameters on concentration, velocity and temperature are shown graphically. Skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are calculated and investigated under the effect of elaborated parameters. An elevation in the value of magnetic field parameter causes collapse in the velocity distributions. Velocity distribution in increasing function of viscoelastic parameter. Temperature and concentration profiles are decreasing functions of viscoelastic parameter. Concentration distribution reduces by increasing the chemical reaction parameter. There is more surface drag force for larger M, while opposite behavior is noted for β. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, such consideration is yet to be published in the literature.

This paper aims to present the numerical study of a dusty micropolar fluid due to a stretching sheet with constant wall temperature. Using the suitable similarity transformation, the governing partial differential equations for two-phase flows of the fluid and the dust particles are reduced to the form of ordinary differential equations. The ordinary differential equations are then numerically analysed using the bvp4c function in the Matlab software. The validity of present numerical results was checked by comparing them with the previous study. The results graphically show the numerical solutions of velocity, temperature and microrotation distributions for several values of the material parameter K, fluid-particle interaction parameter and Prandtl number for both fluid and dust phase. The effect of microrotation is investigated and analysed as well. It is found that the distributions are significantly influenced by the investigated parameters for both phases.

AbstractNonlinear z-independent solutions to a generalized Grad–Shafranov equation (GSE) with up to quartic flux terms in the free functions and incompressible plasma flow non-parallel to the magnetic field are constructed quasi-analytically. Through an ansatz, the GSE is transformed to a set of three ordinary differential equations and a constraint for three functions of the coordinate x, in Cartesian coordinates (x,y), which then are solved numerically. Equilibrium configurations for certain values of the integration constants are displayed. Examination of their characteristics in connection with the impact of nonlinearity and sheared flow indicates that these equilibria are consistent with the L–H transition phenomenology. For flows parallel to the magnetic field, one equilibrium corresponding to the H state is potentially stable in the sense that a sufficient condition for linear stability is satisfied in an appreciable part of the plasma while another solution corresponding to the L state does not satisfy the condition. The results indicate that the sheared flow in conjunction with the equilibrium nonlinearity plays a stabilizing role.
