The present research work scrutinizes numerical heat transfer in convective boundary layer flow having characteristics of magnetic ( Fe 3 O 4 ) and nonmagnetic ( Al 2 O 3 ) nanoparticles synthesized into two different kinds of Newtonian (water) and non-Newtonian (sodium alginate) convectional base fluids of casson nanofluid which integrates the captivating effects of nonlinear thermal radiation and magnetic field embedded in a porous medium. The characterization of electrically transmitted viscous incompressible fluid is taken into account within the Casson fluid model. The mathematical formulation of governing partial differential equations (PDEs) with highly nonlinearity is renovated into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by utilizing the suitable similarity transform that constitutes nondimensional pertinent parameters. The transformed ODEs are tackled numerically by implementing b v p 4 c in MATLAB. A graphical illustration for the purpose of better numerical computations of flow regime is deliberated for the specified parameters corresponding to different profiles (velocity and temperature). To elaborate the behavior of Nusselt and skin friction factor, a tabular demonstration against the distinct specific parameters is analyzed. It is perceived that the velocity gradient of Newtonian fluids is much higher comparatively to non-newtonian fluids. On the contrary, the thermal gradient of non-Newtonian fluid becomes more condensed than that of Newtonian fluids. Graphical demonstration disclosed that the heat transfer analysis in non-Newtonian (sodium alginate)-based fluid is tremendously influenced comparatively to Newtonian (water)-based fluid, and radiation interacts with the highly denser temperature profile of non-Newtonian fluid in contrast to that of Newtonian fluid. Through such comparative analysis of magnetic or nonmagnetic nanoparticles synthesized into distinct base fluids, a considerable enhancement in thermal and heat transfer analysis is quite significant in many expanding engineering and industrial phenomenons.

In this paper, a two-dimensional, steady magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer analysis of a non-Newtonian fluid in a channel with a constant wall temperature are considered in the presence of thermal radiation. The steady Navier-Stokes equations are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using similarity variables. The homotopy perturbation method is used to solve the nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The effects of the pertinent parameters on the velocity and temperature field are discussed

Purpose This study aims to investigate the irreversibility associated with the Fe3O4–Co/kerosene hybrid-nanofluid past a wedge with nonlinear radiation and heat source. Design/methodology/approach This study reports the numerical analysis of the hybrid nanofluid model under the implications of the heat source and magnetic field over a static and moving wedge with slips. The second law of thermodynamics is applied with nonlinear thermal radiation. The system that comprises differential equations of partial derivatives is remodeled into the system of differential equations via similarity transformations and then solved through the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg with shooting technique. The physical parameters, which emerges from the derived system, are discussed in graphical formats. Excellent proficiency in the numerical process is analyzed by comparing the results with available literature in limiting scenarios. Findings The significant outcomes of the current investigation are that the velocity field uplifts for higher velocity slip and magnetic strength. Further, the heat transfer rate is reduced with the incremental values of the Eckert number, while it uplifts with thermal slip and radiation parameters. An increase in Brinkmann’s number uplifts the entropy generation rate, while that peters out the Bejan number. The results of this study are of importance involving in the assessment of the effect of some important design parameters on heat transfer and, consequently, on the optimization of industrial processes. Originality/value This study is original work that reports the hybrid nanofluid model of Fe3O4–Co/kerosene.

This paper addresses nonlinear mixed convection flow due to Riga plate with double stratification. Heat transfer analysis is reported for heat generation/absorption and nonlinear thermal radiation. Physical problem is mathematically modeled and nonlinear system of partial differential equations is achieved. Transformations are then utilized to obtain nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations. Homotopic technique is utilized for the solution procedure. Graphical descriptions for velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions are captured and argued for several set of physical variables. Features of skin friction and Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also illustrated. Our computed results indicate that the attributes of radiation and temperature ratio variables enhance the temperature distribution. Moreover, the influence of buoyancy ratio and modified Hartmann number has revers effects on rate of heat transfer.

In this current work, the heat transfer analysis for the unsteady squeezing magnetohydrodynamic flow of a viscous nanofluid between two parallel plates in the presence of thermal radiation, viscous and magnetic dissipations impacts, considering Fourier heat flux model have been explored. The partial differential equations representing flow model are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by introducing a similarity transformation. The dimensionless and nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the velocity and temperatures functions obtained are solved by employing the homotopy perturbation method. The effects of different parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles are examined graphically, and numerical calculations for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are tabulated. It is found an excellent agreement in the comparative study with literature results. This present numerical exploration has great relevance, consequently a better understanding of the squeezing flow phenomena in the hydraulic lifts, power transmission, nano gastric tubes, reactor fluidization areas.

This study presents similarity solution for boundary layer flow near a vertical porous plate with combined effects of nonlinear density variation with temperature and nonlinear thermal radiation. To accurately predict the flow phenomenon near the porous plate, the convective boundary condition is considered at the plate surface. The two-dimensional partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations through the similarity transformation. The resulting ordinary differential equations are solved numerically in Maple software using the Runge–Kutta–Ferhlberg fourth-fifth order (RKF45) algorithm. The influence of the inherit parameters like the nonlinear thermal radiation parameter, suction/injection parameter, nonlinear Boussinesq approximation parameters, local convective heat transfer parameter, local Grashof number, and Prandtl number governing the fluid behaviour is discussed. We found that the rate of heat transfer improves with the injection and nonlinear thermal radiation parameter whereas decreases with suction, local convective heat transfer parameter and local Grashof number when air and mercury are used as the working fluids. Furthermore, with the growth in the values of local Grashof number, convective heat transfer parameter and nonlinear thermal radiation parameter and in the presence of suction/injection, the porous plate surface friction witnessed an observable growth. Suction growth plays a supportive role on the velocity curve near the porous plate but a contrary trend is seen in the free stream. The temperature distribution also decays with suction augment. Injection growth is inversely proportional to the velocity profile near the porous plate but we recorded the opposite phenomenon in the free stream.

The present paper deals with the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a non-Newtonian fluid at an exponentially stretching permeable surface. The Casson fluid model is used to characterize the non-Newtonian fluid behavior, due to its various practical applications. With the help of similarity transformations the governing partial differential equations corresponding to the continuity, momentum, and energy equations are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations, and numerical solutions to these equations are obtained. Furthermore, in some specific parameter regimes, analytical solutions are found. It is observed that the effect of increasing values of the Casson parameter is to decrease the velocity field while enhancing the temperature field. Furthermore, it is observed that the effect of the increasing values of the suction parameter is to increase the skin-friction coefficient.

The present article presents a novel idea regarding the implementation of Tiwari and Das model on Reiner-Philippoff fluid (RPF) model by considering blood as a base fluid. The Cattaneo-Christov model and thermal radiative flow have been employed to study heat transfer analysis. Tiwari and Das model consider nanoparticles volume fraction for heat transfer enhancement instead of the Buongiorno model which heavily relies on thermophoresis and Brownian diffusion effects for heat transfer analysis. Maxwell velocity and Temperature slip boundary conditions have been employed at the surface of the sheet. By utilizing the suitable transformations, the modeled PDEs (partial-differential equations) are renewed in ODEs (ordinary-differential equations) and treated these equations numerically with the aid of bvp4c technique in MATLAB software. To check the reliability of the proposed scheme a comparison with available literature has been made. Other than Buongiorno nanofluid model no attempt has been made in literature to study the impact of nanoparticles on Reiner-Philippoff fluid model past a stretchable surface. This article fills this gap available in the existing literature by considering novel ideas like the implementation of carbon nanotubes, CCHF, and thermal radiation effects on Reiner-Philippoff fluid past a slippery expandable sheet. Momentum, as well as temperature slip boundary conditions, are never studied and considered before for the case of Reiner-Philippoff fluid past a slippery expandable sheet. In the light of physical effects used in this model, it is observed that heat transfer rate escalates as a result of magnification in thermal radiation parameter which is 18.5% and skin friction coefficient diminishes by the virtue of amplification in the velocity slip parameter and maximum decrement is 67.9%.

AbstractThe steady laminar three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer over a stretching sheet is investigated. The sheet is linearly stretched in two lateral directions. Heat transfer analysis is performed by utilizing a nonlinear radiative heat flux in Rosseland approximation for thermal radiation. Two different wall conditions, namely (i) constant wall temperature and (ii) prescribed surface temperature are considered. The developed nonlinear boundary value problems (BVPs) are solved numerically through fifth-order Runge-Kutta method using a shooting technique. To ascertain the accuracy of results the solutions are also computed by using built in function bvp4c of MATLAB. The behaviours of interesting parameters are carefully analyzed through graphs for velocity and temperature distributions. The dimensionless expressions of wall shear stress and heat transfer rate at the sheet are evaluated and discussed. It is seen that a point of inflection of the temperature function exists for sufficiently large values of wall to ambient temperature ratio. The solutions are in excellent agreement with the previous studies in a limiting sense. To our knowledge, the novel idea of nonlinear thermal radiation in three-dimensional flow is just introduced here.
