The present paper deals with the effects of thermophoresis and the homogeneous chemical reactions of first order on magneto-hydrodynamic mixed convective flow past a heated inclined permeable flat plate in the presence of heat generation or absorption considering the viscous dissipation and Joule heating. The resulting governing partial differential equations are transformed into non-dimensional ordinary differential equations using the usual similarity transformations and then solved numerically by applying the Nachtsheim–Swigert shooting iteration technique together with the sixth-order Runge–Kutta integration scheme. Comparison with previously published work is performed and very good agreement is obtained. A parametric study of the governing parameters is carried out and the results are displayed graphically. The results show that viscous drag, rate of heat transfer, and wall deposition flux decreases as the angle of inclination increases. It is also observed that due to the presence of the first-order homogeneous chemical reaction, the concentration decreases with increasing values of the chemical reaction parameter.PACS Nos.: 44.20.+b, 47.65.–d, 47.70.Fw

We study an unsteady MHD free convection heat and mass transfer boundary layer incompressible fluid flow past a vertical porous plate in the presence of viscous dissipation, heat generation/absorption, chemical reaction, and Arrhenius activation energy. The plate is moving with uniform velocity. The chemical reaction rate in the function of temperature is also considered. The governing partial differential equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations by introducing local similarity transformation (Maleque (2010)) and then are solved numerically by shooting method using the Nachtsheim-Swigert iteration technique. The results of the numerical solution are then presented graphically as well as the tabular form for difference values of the various parameters.

The paper analyses the effects of Magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) free convective heat and mass transfer flow on non-Newtonian power law fluids along a continuously moving stretching sheet with radiation, heat generation and viscous dissipation under the simultaneous action of suction, thermal radiation, heat source, uniform transverse magnetic field and viscous dissipation. The governing non-linear partial differential equations describing the flow fields under consideration are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations by using appropriate analysis of similarity and then solved the resulting problem numerically by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iterative technique along with sixth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme. The computational results of the skin friction coefficient (Cf) the rate of heat transfer namely the local Nusselt number (Nux) and the mass transfer coefficient namely the local Sherwood number (Shx) have also been presented in tabular form. In the present study, a comparison has also been done with a published article and found a good agreement.Dhaka Univ. J. Sci. 63(2):97-104, 2015 (July)

Steady laminar natural convection flow over a semi-infinite moving vertical plate with internal heat generation and convective surface boundary condition in the presence of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, and chemical reaction is examined in this paper. In the analysis, we assumed that the left surface of the plate is in contact with a hot fluid while the cold fluid on the right surface of the plate contains a heat source that decays exponentially with the classical similarity variable. We utilized similarity variable to transform the governing nonlinear partial differential equations into a system of ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically by applying shooting iteration technique along fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. The effects of the local Biot number, Prandtl number, buoyancy forces, the internal heat generation, the thermal radiation, Eckert number, viscous dissipation, and chemical reaction on the velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are illustrated and interpreted in physical terms. A comparison with previously published results on the similar special cases showed an excellent agreement. Finally, numerical values of physical quantities, such as the local skin-friction coefficient, the local Nusselt number, and the local Sherwood number, are presented in tabular form.

In the present study, an analysis is carried out to investigate the effect of chemical reaction and radiation on a steady two-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) heat and mass transfer free convection flow of a viscous incompressible fluid along a stretching sheet with heat generation along with the effect of viscous dissipation. The basic non-linear partial differential equations governing the flow field are reduced to a system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations by similarity transformations and the equations are solved numerically by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique along with sixth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme. The numerical results with respect to embedded parameters are displayed graphically for the non-dimensional velocity, temperature and concentration profiles. Finally the effects of the pertinent parameters which are of physical and engineering interest are presented in tabular form. Dhaka Univ. J.

The problem of combined free-forced convection and mass transfer flow over a vertical porous flat plate, in presence of heat generation and thermaldiffusion, is studied numerically. The non-linear partial differential equations and their boundary conditions, describing the problem under consideration, are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by using usual similarity transformations. This system is solved numerically by applying Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique together with Runge-Kutta sixth order integration scheme. The effects of suction parameter, heat generation parameter and Soret number are examined on the flow field of a hydrogen-air mixture as a non-chemical reacting fluid pair. The analysis of the obtained results showed that the flow field is significantly influenced by these parameters.

This article is focused on Maxwell ferromagnetic fluid and heat transport characteristics under the impact of magnetic field generated due to dipole field. The viscous dissipation and heat generation/absorption are also taken into account. Flow here is instigated by linearly stretchable surface, which is assumed to be permeable. Also description of magneto-thermo-mechanical (ferrohydrodynamic) interaction elaborates the fluid motion as compared to hydrodynamic case. Problem is modeled using continuity, momentum and heat transport equation. To implement the numerical procedure, firstly we transform the partial differential equations (PDEs) into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by applying similarity approach, secondly resulting boundary value problem (BVP) is transformed into an initial value problem (IVP). Then resulting set of non-linear differentials equations is solved computationally with the aid of Runge–Kutta scheme with shooting algorithm using MATLAB. The flow situation is carried out by considering the influence of pertinent parameters namely ferro-hydrodynamic interaction parameter, Maxwell parameter, suction/injection and viscous dissipation on flow velocity field, temperature field, friction factor and heat transfer rate are deliberated via graphs. The present numerical values are associated with those available previously in the open literature for Newtonian fluid case (γ 1 = 0) to check the validity of the solution. It is inferred that interaction of magneto-thermo-mechanical is to slow down the fluid motion. We also witnessed that by considering the Maxwell and ferrohydrodynamic parameter there is decrement in velocity field whereas opposite behavior is noted for temperature field.

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.

AbstractPresent exploration discusses the combined effect of viscous dissipation and Joule heating on three dimensional flow and heat transfer of a Jeffrey nanofluid in the presence of nonlinear thermal radiation. Here the flow is generated over bidirectional stretching sheet in the presence of applied magnetic field by accounting thermophoresis and Brownian motion of nanoparticles. Suitable similarity transformations are employed to reduce the governing partial differential equations into coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. These nonlinear ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth–fifth order method with shooting technique. Graphically results are presented and discussed for various parameters. Validation of the current method is proved by comparing our results with the existing results under limiting situations. It can be concluded that combined effect of Joule and viscous heating increases the temperature profile and thermal boundary layer thickness.

The model encountered an unsteady laminar and two-dimensional convective flow of Casson fluid passing through an inclined permeable vertical stretching sheet. The momentum, thermal and concentrated boundary layers (BLs) are used to analyze the unsteady effects of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) (neglecting induced magnetic field), viscous dissipation, Joule heating and chemical reactions. The governed partial differential equations (PDEs) of the model are reduced to the ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The ξ and χ are selected as the two parameters of the scaling transformations. By using bvp4c with MATLAB, the ODEs are solved numerically and represent their results through the graphs and tables. After the non-dimensionalizing of the equations system, we get the emerging dimensionless parameters. The concentration process was enhanced by the Casson fluid parameter but it reduced the fluid flow and thermal transfer that can be found through the graphical results. The effect of Buoyancy is highlighted as it reduced the velocity profile function, but it is a growing function of the thermal and concentrated profiles. The physical quantities are integrated through the table and graphical analysis. In the center of the wall, the number Shx versus Sc decreases, but at the end it increases.
