A theoretical study is carried out to obtain an analytic solution of heat and mass transfer in a vertical porous channel with rotation and Hall current. A constant suction and injection is applied to the two insulating porous plates. A strong magnetic field is applied in the transverse direction. The entire system rotates with uniform angular velocity Ω about the axis normal to the plates. The governing equations are solved by perturbation technique to obtain the analytical results for velocity, temperature, and concentration fields and shear stresses. The steady and unsteady resultant velocities along with the phase differences for various values of physical parameters are discussed in detail. The effects of rotation, buoyancy force, magnetic field, thermal radiation, and heat generation parameters on resultant velocity, temperature, and concentration fields are analyzed.

An analysis is carried out to study the effect of heat and mass transfer on a non-Newtonian-fluid between two infinite parallel walls, one of them moving with a uniform velocity under the action of a transverse magnetic field. The moving wall moves with constant velocity in the direction of fluid flow while the free stream velocity is assumed to follow the exponentially increasing small perturbation law. Time-dependent wall suction is assumed to occur at permeable surface. The governing equations for the flow are transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by perturbation technique and are solved numerically by using the shooting technique with fourth order Runge-Kutta integration scheme. The effect of non-Newtonian parameter, magnetic pressure parameter, Schmidt number, Grashof number and modified Grashof number on velocity, temperature, concentration and the induced magnetic field are discussed. Numerical results are given and illustrated graphically for the considered Problem.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to analyze an unsteady MHD Darcy flow of nonNewtonian hybrid nanoliquid past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate under the influence of velocity slip, Hall and ion slip effects in a rotating frame of reference. The fluids in the flow domain are assumed to be viscously incompressible electrically conducting. Sodium alginate (SA) has been taken as a base Casson liquid. A strong uniform magnetic field is applied under the assumption of low magnetic Reynolds number. Effect of Hall and ion-slip currents on the flow field is examined. The ramped heating and time-varying concentration at the plate are taken into consideration. First-order homogeneous chemical reaction and heat absorption are also considered. Copper and alumina nanoparticles are dispersed in base fluid sodium alginate to be formed as hybrid nanoliquid.Design/methodology/approachThe model problem is first formulated in terms of partial differential equations (PDEs) with physical conditions. Laplace transform method (LTM) is used on the nondimensional governing equations for their closed-form solution. Based on these results, expressions for nondimensional shear stresses, rate of heat and mass transfer are also determined. Graphical presentations are chalked out to inspect the impacts of physical parameters on the pertinent physical flow characteristics. Numerical values of the shear stresses, rate of heat and mass transfer at the plate are tabulated for various physical parameters.FindingsNumerical exploration reveals that a significant increase in the secondary flow (i.e. crossflow) near the plate is guaranteed with an augmenting in Hall parameter or ion slip parameter. MHD and porosity have an opposite effect on velocity component profiles for both types of nanoliquids. Result addresses that both shear stresses are strongly enhanced by the Casson effect. Also, hybrid nanosuspension in Casson fluid (sodium alginate) exhibits a lower rate of heat transfer than usual nanoliquid.Social implicationsThis model may be pertinent in cooling processes of metallic infinite plate in bath and hybrid magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generators, metallurgical process, manufacturing dynamics of nanopolymers, magnetic field control of material processing, synthesis of smart polymers, making of paper and polyethylene, casting of metals, etc.Originality/valueThe originality of this study is to obtain an analytical solution of the modeled problem by using the Laplace transform method (LTM). Such an exact solution of nonNewtonian fluid flow, heat and mass transfer is rare in the literature. It is also worth remarking that the influence of Hall and ion slip effects on the flow of nonNewtonian hybrid nanoliquid is still an open question.

In this paper, the problem of heat and mass transfer due to the steady motion of a Rivlin- Ericksen fluid in tubes of varying cross-section is considered. Suction at tube walls is taken into account. Under the assumption that the deformations of the boundaries are small, the equations of motion have been solved by using a perturbation technique. The temperature and concentration distributions are obtained. The effects of various physical parameters are discussed. The Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are obtained. A set of figures for a quantitative illustration is presented.

The present paper is concerned to analyze the effect of hall current on heat and thermal radiation and mass transfer of unsteady MHD flow of a viscoelastic micropolar fluid through a porous medium with chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to dimensionless equations using dimensionless variables. The dimensionless governing equations are then solved analytically using perturbation technique. The effects of various governing parameters on the velocity, temperature, concentration, skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are shown in figures and tables and analyzed in detail.

The present analysis discusses the effects of thermal-diffusion with thermal radiation, Joule heating and internal heat generation on peristaltic flow of a non-Newtonian fluid obeying Jeffery model. Heat and mass transfer are also taken into consideration, the flow is between two co-axial tubes under the effect of radially varying magnetic field. The inner tube is uniform and at rest, while the outer tube is flexible with sinusoidal wave traveling. The problem is modulated mathematically by a system of partial differential equations which describes the equations of momentum, heat, and mass transfer. These equations are solved analytically under the assumptions of long wave length and low-Reynolds number in non-dimensional form. The solutions are obtained as a functions of physical parameters of the problem. The radially varying magnetic field effect on the temperature and concentration distributions is analyzed and it is shown that the increase of Hartman number tends to reduce the temperature, while it increases the concentration.

In this paper, analytic approximation to the heat and mass transfer characteristics of a two-dimensional time-dependent flow of Williamson nanofluids over a permeable stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium has been presented by considering the effects of magnetic field, thermal radiation, and chemical reaction. The governing partial differential equations along with the boundary conditions were reduced to dimensionless forms by using suitable similarity transformation. The resulting system of ordinary differential equations with the corresponding boundary conditions was solved via the homotopy analysis method. The results of the study show that velocity, temperature, and concentration boundary layer thicknesses generally decrease as we move away from the surface of the stretching sheet and the Williamson parameter was found to retard the velocity but it enhances the temperature and concentration profiles near the surface. It was also found that increasing magnetic field strength, thermal radiation, or rate of chemical reaction speeds up the mass transfer but slows down the heat transfer rates in the boundary layer. The results of this study were compared with some previously published works under some restrictions, and they are found in excellent agreement.

Through this paper we investigated the heat and mass transfer in chemically reacting radiative Casson fluid flow over a slandering/flat stretching sheet in a slip flow regime with aligned magnetic field. This study is carried out under the influence of non uniform heat source/sink. First we converted the governing equations of the flow into ordinary differential equations by making use of suitable similarity transformations. The obtained non-linear differential equations are solved numerically using Runge-Kutta based shooting technique. Further, graphical representation has been given to study the effects of various physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration fields. Also numerical computations has been carried out to investigate the influence of the physical parameters involved in the flow on skin friction, rate of heat and mass transfer coefficients. Through this investigation, it is observed that aligned angle, Casson parameter and velocity slip parameter have the tendency to control the velocity field. Also heat transfer rate in flat stretching sheet is higher than that of slendering stretching sheet. A good agreement of the present results with the existed literature has been observed.

The development of the mathematical modeling of Casson fluid flow and heat and mass transfer is presented in this paper. The model is subjected to the following physical parameters: shrinking parameter, mixed convection, concentration buoyancy ratio parameter, Soret number, and Dufour number. This model is also subjected to the inclined magnetic field and shrinking sheet at a certain angle projected from the y- and x-axes, respectively. The MATLAB bvp4c program is the main mathematical program that was used to obtain the final numerical solutions for the reduced ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These ODEs originate from the governing partial differential equations (PDEs), where the transformation can be achieved by applying similarity transformations. The MATLAB bvp4c program was also implemented to develop stability analysis, where this calculation was executed to recognize the most stable numerical solution. Numerical graphics were made for the skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number, local Sherwood number, velocity profile, temperature profile, and concentration profile for certain values of the physical parameters. It is found that all the governed parameters affected the variations of the Casson fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer, and the profiles of velocity, temperature, and concentration. In addition, a stable solution can be applied to predict the impact of physical parameters on the actual fluid model by using a mathematical fluid model.

In the present work, the flow of non-Newtonian Bingham blood fluid through non-uniform channel is investigated. The fluid is electrically conducting, and the external uniform magnetic field is applied on this motion. The heat and mass transfer are taken in consideration, so, Soret and Dufour effects are studied. The problem is modulated mathematically by a system of non-linear partial differential equations which govern the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions. The system of these equations is simplified under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynolds number, then it is solved analytically by using homotopy perturbation technique. These distributions are obtained as a function of the physical parameters of the problem. The effects of these parameters on the obtained solutions are discussed numerically and illustrated graphically through a set of figures. These parameters play an important role to control the values of solutions. The used Bingham model is applicable for the physiological transportation of blood in arteries.
