Nanofluid slip flow with distinct solid particles past a wedge with convective surface and high order slip is discussed in this paper. The wedge model is modified by considering the effects of Brownian motion and thermophphoresis together with the high order velocity slip and temperature jump. In this study, the governing fundamental equations are first transformed into third-order ordinary differential equations and solved by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). Through error analysis and comparison with previous research, the effectiveness of HAM is ascertained, and the crucial influence of nanoparticles and high-order slip on the fluid skin-friction coefficient and heat transfer coefficient is analyed. Thermophphoresis parameter and suction/injection parameter are found to cause an increase in velocity and temperature. The rate of heat transfer in the Cu–water nanofluid is found to be higher than the others.

The velocity and thermal slip impacts on the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) nanofluid flow and heat transfer through a stretched thin sheet are discussed in the paper. The no slip condition is substituted for a new slip condition consisting of higher-order slip and constitutive equation. Similarity transformation and Lie point symmetry are adopted to convert the derived governed equations to ordinary differential equations. An approximate analytical solution is gained through the homotopy analysis method. The impacts of velocity slip, temperature jump, and other physical parameters on flow and heat transfer are illustrated. Results indicate that the first-order slip and nonlinear slip parameters reduce the velocity boundary layer thickness and Nusselt number, whereas the effect on shear stress is converse. The temperature jump parameter causes a rise in the temperature, but a decline in the Nusselt number. With the increase of the order, we can get that the error reaches 10 − 6 from residual error curve. In addition, the velocity contours and the change of skin friction coefficient are computed through Ansys Fluent.

AbstractIn this article, we discuss the flow and heat transfer of nanofluids over a rotating porous disk with velocity slip and temperature jump. Three types of nanoparticles – Cu, Al2O3, and CuO – are considered with water as the base fluid. The nonlinear governing equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by Von Karman transformations and solved using homotopy analysis method (HAM), which is verified in good agreement with numerical ones. The effects of involved parameters such as porous parameter, velocity slip, temperature jump, as well as the types of nanofluids on velocity and temperature fields are presented graphically and analysed.

This paper presents the study of unsteady nanofluids flow and heat transfer past a wedge with second order velocity slip and temperature jump. The model is modified by considering the existence of a nanolayer together with the effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion. The fundamental equations were transformed into ordinary differential equations by a new set of similarity transformations and solved by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). We determined that the error reached 10-6 and the effectiveness of HAM was attained. The influence of second-order slip on the fluid skin-friction coefficient was analyzed and we determined that the Nusselt number decreases and skin friction coefficient rises with an increase in the thickness of the nanolayer.

An investigation toward the existence of a complete similarity solution for boundary layer flows under the velocity slip and temperature jump conditions is carried out. The study is limited to the boundary layer flows resulting from an arbitrary freestream velocity U(x)=Uoxm and wall temperature given by Tw−T∞=Cxn. It is found that a similar solution exists only for m=1 and n=0, which represents stagnation flow on isothermal surface. This case has been thoroughly investigated. The analysis showed that three parameters control the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the problem. These parameters are the velocity slip parameter K1, the temperature jump parameter K2, and Prandtl number. The effect of these parameters on the flow and heat transfer of the problem has been studied and presented. It is found that the slip velocity parameter affects both the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the problem. It is found that the skin friction coefficient decreases with increasing K1 and most of changes in the skin friction takes place in the range 0<K1<1. The skin friction coefficient is found to be related to K1 and Rex according to the relation: Cf=3.38Rex−0.5(K1+1.279)−0.8 for 0<K1<5 with an error of ±4%. On the other hand, the correlation between Nu, K1, K2, and Pr has been found by the equation Nu=[(0.449+1.142K11.06)∕(0.515+K11.06)](K2+1.489Pr−0.44)−1, for 0<K1, K2<5, 0.7≤Pr≤5 within a maximum error of ±3%.

The boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet are numerically studied. Velocity slip is considered instead of no-slip condition at the boundary as is usually appears in the literature. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary ones using a similarity transformation, before being solved numerically. Numerical solutions of these equations are obtained using finite element method (FEM). The variations of velocity and temperature inside the boundary layer as well as the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer rate at the surface for some values of the governing parameters, namely, the nanoparticle volume fraction and the slip parameter are presented graphically and discussed. Comparison with published results for the regular fluid is presented and it is found to be in excellent agreement.

In this paper, a lattice Boltzmann (LB) model is established to simulate the gaseous fluid flow and heat transfer in the slip regime under the curved boundary condition. A novel curved boundary treatment is proposed for the LB modeling, which is a combination of the nonequilibrium extrapolation scheme for the curved boundary and the counter-extrapolation method for the macroscopic variables on the curved gas–solid interface. The established numerical model can accurately predict the velocity slip and temperature jump of the microscale gas flow on the curved surface, which agrees well with the analytical solution for the microcylindrical Couette flow and heat transfer. Then, the slip flow and the heat transfer over the single microcylinder are numerically studied in this work. It shows that the velocity slip and the temperature jump are obviously influenced by the Knudsen number and the Reynolds number, and the local Nusselt number depends on which gas rarefaction effect (velocity slip or temperature jump) is dominant. An increase in the Prandtl number leads to a decrease in the temperature jump, which enhances the heat transfer on the microcylinder surface. The numerical simulation of the flow and heat transfer over two microcylinders in tandem configuration are carried out to investigate the wake interference effect. The results show that the slip flow and heat transfer characteristics of the downstream microcylinder are influenced by the wake region behind the upstream cylinder as the spacing is small.

Accurate modeling of gas microvection is crucial for a lot of MEMS applications (microheat exchangers, pressure gauges, fluidic microactuators for active control of aerodynamic flows, mass flow and temperature microsensors, micropumps, and microsystems for mixing or separation for local gas analysis, mass spectrometers, vacuum, and dosing valves…). Gas flows in microsystems are often in the slip flow regime, characterized by a moderate rarefaction with a Knudsen number of the order of 10−2–10−1. In this regime, velocity slip and temperature jump at the walls play a major role in heat transfer. This paper presents a state of the art review on convective heat transfer in microchannels, focusing on rarefaction effects in the slip flow regime. Analytical and numerical models are compared for various microchannel geometries and heat transfer conditions (constant heat flux or constant wall temperature). The validity of simplifying assumptions is detailed and the role played by the kind of velocity slip and temperature jump boundary conditions is shown. The influence of specific effects, such as viscous dissipation, axial conduction and variable fluid properties is also discussed.

Slip-flow and heat transfer in rectangular microchannels are studied numerically for constant wall temperature (T) and constant wall heat flux (H2) boundary conditions under thermally developing flow. Navier-Stokes and energy equations with velocity slip and temperature jump at the boundary are solved using finite volume method in a three dimensional cartesian coordinate system. A modified convection-diffusion coefficient at the wall-fluid interface is defined to incorporate the temperature-jump boundary condition. Validity of the numerical simulation procedure is stabilized. The effect of rarefaction on heat transfer in the entrance region is analyzed in detail. The velocity slip has an increasing effect on the Nusselt (Nu) number whereas temperature jump has a decreasing effect, and the combined effect could result increase or decrease in the Nu number. For the range of parameters considered, there could be high as 15% increase or low as 50% decrease in fully developed Nu is plausible for T thermal boundary condition while it could be high as 20% or low as 35% for H2 thermal boundary condition.
