The present research aims to examine the micropolar nanofluid flow of Casson fluid between two parallel plates in a rotating system with effects of thermal radiation. The influence of Hall current on the micropolar nanofluids have been taken into account. The fundamental leading equations are transformed to a system of nonlinear differential equations using appropriate similarity variables. An optimal and numerical tactic is used to get the solution of the problem. The convergence and comparison have been shown numerically. The impact of the Hall current, Brownian movement, and thermophoresis phenomena of Casson nanofluid have been mostly concentrated in this investigation. It is found that amassed Hall impact decreases the operative conductivity which intends to increase the velocity field. The temperature field enhances with larger values of Brownian motion thermophoresis effect. The impacts of the Skin friction coefficient, heat flux, and mass flux have been deliberate. The skin friction coefficient is observed to be larger for k=0, as compared to the case of k=0.5. Furthermore, for conception and visual demonstration, the embedded parameters have been deliberated graphically.

PurposeIn recent years, microfluidics has turned into a very important region of research because of its wide range of applications such as microheat exchanger, micromixers fuel cells, cooling systems for microelectronic devices, micropumps and microturbines. Therefore, in this paper, micropolar nanofluid flow through an inclined microchannel is numerically investigated in the presence of convective boundary conditions. Heat transport of fluid includes radiative heat, viscous and Joule heating phenomena.Design/methodology/approachGoverning equations are nondimensionalized by using suitable dimensionless variables. The relevant dimensionless ordinary differential systems are solved by using variational finite element method. Detailed computations are done for velocity, microrotation and temperature functions. The influence of various parameters on entropy generation and the Bejan number is displayed and discussed.FindingsIt is established that the entropy generation rate increased with both Grashof number and Eckert number, while it decreased with nanoparticle volume fraction and material parameter. Temperature is decreased by increasing the volume fraction of Ag nanoparticle dispersed in water.Originality/valueAccording to the literature survey and the best of the author’s knowledge, no similar studies have been executed on micropolar nanofluid flow through an inclined microchannel with effect of viscous dissipation, Joule heating and thermal radiation.

AbstractPresent research article reports the magnetized impacts of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion models on heat and mass transfer behaviour of viscous incompressible, time-dependent, two-dimensional Casson nanofluid flow through the channel with Joule heating and viscous dissipation effects numerically. The classical transport models such as Fourier and Fick’s laws of heat and mass diffusions are generalized in terms of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion models by accounting the thermal and concentration relaxation times. The present physical problem is examined in the presence of Lorentz forces to investigate the effects of magnetic field on double diffusion process along with Joule heating. The non-Newtonian Casson nanofluid flow between two parallel plates gives the system of time-dependent, highly nonlinear, coupled partial differential equations and is solved by utilizing RK-SM and bvp4c schemes. Present results show that, the temperature and concentration distributions are fewer in case of Cattaneo-Christov heat and mass flux models when compared to the Fourier’s and Fick’s laws of heat and mass diffusions. The concentration field is a diminishing function of thermophoresis parameter and it is an increasing function of Brownian motion parameter. Finally, an excellent comparison between the present solutions and previously published results show the accuracy of the results and methods used to achieve the objective of the present work.

An integrated numerical technique for static and dynamic nonlinear structural problems adopting the equilibrium iteration is proposed. The differential quadrature finite element method (DQFEM), which uses the differential quadrature (DQ) techniques to the finite element discretization, is used to analyze the static and dynamic nonlinear structural mechanics problems. Numerical time integration in conjunction with the use of equilibrium iteration is used to update the response history. The equilibrium iteration can be carried out by the accelerated iteration schemes. The global secant relaxation-based accelerated constant stiffness and diagonal stiffness-based predictor-corrector equilibrium iterations which are efficient and reliable are used for the numerical computations. Sample problems are analyzed. Numerical results demonstrate the algorithm.
