This research work interprets the influences of magnetic dipole over a radiative Eyring–Powell fluid flow past a stretching sheet while considering the impacts of viscous and ohmic dissipation that produce a quite illustrious effect due to the generated magnetic dipole. This whole analysis is characterized by the effects of steady, laminar, and incompressible flow. The highly nonlinear and coupled partial differential equations (PDEs) are remodeled into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by utilizing reliable and nondimensional parameters leading to the momentum, thermal, and concentration equations, that are computationally solved using b v p 4 c on MATLAB, and “dsolve” command on MAPLE software, in the companionship of boundary conditions. The physical constraints such as viscous and ohmic dissipation and many other sundry parametric effects are sketched with their ultimate effects on fluid flow. For the sustenance of this research with the prior work and in collaboration with the below mentioned literature review, a comprehensive differentiation is given, which defines the sustainability of the current work. The Buongiorno nanoliquid model elaborates the thermophoresis and Brownian features that are deliberately scrutinized within the influence of activation energy. Also, the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are illustrated in tables. The skin friction coefficient decreases with a rise in the ferromagnetic interaction parameter as well as the Hartmann number, whereas the Nusselt number and Sherwood number show variation for varying parameters. It can be observed that Eyring–Powell fluid intensifies the rate of heat and mass transfer.

The problem of unsteady, two-dimensional, laminar, boundary-layer flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting and heat-absorbing Rivlin-Ericksen flow fluid along a semi-infinite vertical permeable moving plate has been investigated. A uniform transverse magnetic field is applied in the direction of the flow. The presence of thermal and concentration buoyancy effects is considered. The plate is assumed to move with a 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 the permeable surface. The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are solved analytically using two-term harmonic and non-harmonic functions. Numerical evaluation of the analytical results is performed and some graphical results for the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions within the boundary layer are presented. Skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also discussed with the help of the graphs. Local skin-friction coefficient increases with an increase in the permeability parameter, and Soret number whereas reverse effects is seen in the case of dimensionless viscoelasticity parameter of the Rivlin-Ericksen fluid. Nusselt number decreases in the presence of heat absorption. The presence of Soret number Sherwood number increases.

In this research, the problem of magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer over an exponentially stretching/shrinking sheet in ferrofluids is presented. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying suitable similarity transformations. These equations are then solved numerically using the shooting method for some pertinent parameters. For this research, the water-based ferrofluid is considered with three types of ferroparticles: magnetite, cobalt ferrite, and manganese-zinc ferrite. The numerical solutions on the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, velocity and temperature profiles influenced by the magnetic parameter, wall mass transfer parameter, stretching/shrinking parameter, and volume fraction of solid ferroparticle are graphically displayed and discussed in more details. The existences of dual solutions are noticeable for the stretching/shrinking case in a specific range of limit. For the first solution, an increasing number in magnetic and suction will also give an increment of skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number over stretching/shrinking sheet. For the skin friction coefficient only, it is showed a decreasing pattern after the intersection. Besides, the presence of ferroparticles in the fluids causes a high number of the fluid’s thermal conductivity and heat transfer rate.

We examined heat and mass transfer characteristics of mixed convective slip flow over a wedge taking into account the effect of variable transport properties. Unlike other studies, we have utilized non-similar transformation to get the non-similar features of the mixed convective slip flow. For comparison, stream function formulation is used to reduce the governing equation into a convenient form for short- and long-time regimes. We have determined the series solutions by adopting the perturbation techniques. The agreement between the numerical and series solutions is found to be excellent. Numerical solutions reveal that the slip parameters augment the momentum, thermal and concentration boundary layers. The local skin friction coefficient, the local Nusselt number and the local Sherwood number are found to decrease for higher value of slip parameters. For the increasing value of the variable viscosity parameter, the velocity is stronger, but the temperature and concentration lessen. Contrary to this, this parameter diminishes the local skin friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number. Due to the increase of mass diffusivity parameter, the velocity and concentration significantly increase whereas the temperature remains almost unaffected. Moreover, the mass diffusivity variation parameter leads to an increase in the local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number, but it reduces the local Sherwood number.

AbstractFlow of a Newtonian nanoliquid due to a curved stretching sheet and heat transfer in it is studied. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients by using a similarity transformation. The flow characteristics are studied using plots of flow velocity components and the skin-friction coefficient as a function of suction-injection parameter, curvature, and volume fraction. Prescribed surface temperature and prescribed surface heat flux are considered for studying the temperature distribution in the flow. The thermophysical properties of 20 nanoliquids are considered in the investigation by modeling them through the use of phenomenological laws and mixture theory. The results of the corresponding problem involving a plane stretching sheet is obtained as a particular case of those obtained in the present paper. Skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are evaluated and it is observed that skin friction coefficient decreases with concentration of nanoparticles in the absence as well as presence of suction where as Nusselt number increases with increase in concentration of nanoparticles in a dilute range.

AbstractThe current study analyzes the effects of modified Fourier and Fick's theories on the Carreau-Yasuda nanofluid flow over a stretched surface accompanying activation energy with binary chemical reaction. Mechanism of heat transfer is observed in the occurrence of heat source/sink and Newtonian heating. The induced magnetic field is incorporated to boost the electric conductivity of nanofluid. The formulation of the model consists of nonlinear coupled partial differential equations that are transmuted into coupled ordinary differential equations with high nonlinearity by applying boundary layer approximation. The numerical solution of this coupled system is carried out by implementing the MATLAB solver bvp4c package. Also, to verify the accuracy of the numerical scheme grid-free analysis for the Nusselt number is presented. The influence of different parameters, for example, reciprocal magnetic Prandtl number, stretching ratio parameter, Brownian motion, thermophoresis, and Schmidt number on the physical quantities like velocity, temperature distribution, and concentration distribution are addressed with graphs. The Skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number for different parameters are estimated through Tables. The analysis shows that the concentration of nanoparticles increases on increasing the chemical reaction with activation energy and also Brownian motion efficiency and thermophoresis parameter increases the nanoparticle concentration. Opposite behavior of velocity profile and the Skin friction coefficient is observed for increasing the stretching ratio parameter. In order to validate the present results, a comparison with previously published results is presented. Also, Factors of thermal and solutal relaxation time effectively contribute to optimizing the process of stretchable surface chilling, which is important in many industrial applications.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to focus on the numerical modelling of transient natural convection flow of an incompressible viscous nanofluid past an impulsively started semi-infinite vertical plate with variable surface temperature. Design/methodology/approach – The problem is governed by the coupled non-linear partial differential equations with appropriate boundary conditions. A robust, well-tested, Crank-Nicolson type of implicit finite-difference method, which is unconditionally stable and convergent, is used to solve the governing non-linear set of partial differential equations. Findings – The local and average values of the skin-friction coefficient (viscous drag) and the average Nusselt number (the rate of heat transfer) decreased, while the local Nusselt number increased for all nanofluids, namely, aluminium oxide-water, copper-water, titanium oxide-water and silver-water with an increase in the temperature exponent m. Selecting aluminium oxide as the dispersing nanoparticles leads to the maximum average Nusselt number (the rate of heat transfer), while choosing silver as the dispersing nanoparticles leads to the minimum local Nusselt number compared to the other nanofluids for all values of the temperature exponent m. Also, choosing silver as the dispersing nanoparticles leads to the minimum skin-friction coefficient (viscous drag), while selecting aluminium oxide as the dispersing nanoparticles leads to the maximum skin-friction coefficient (viscous drag) for all values of the temperature exponent m. Research limitations/implications – The Brinkman model for dynamic viscosity and Maxwell-Garnett model for thermal conductivity are employed. The governing boundary layer equations are written according to The Tiwari-Das nanofluid model. A range of nanofluids containing nanoparticles of aluminium oxide, copper, titanium oxide and silver with nanoparticle volume fraction range less than or equal to 0.04 are considered. Practical implications – The present simulations are relevant to nanomaterials thermal flow processing in the chemical engineering and metallurgy industries. This study also provides an important benchmark for further simulations of nanofluid dynamic transport phenomena of relevance to materials processing, with alternative computational algorithms (e.g. finite element methods). Originality/value – This paper is relatively original and illustrates the influence of variable surface temperature on transient natural convection flow of a viscous incompressible nanofluid and heat transfer from an impulsively started semi-infinite vertical plate.

The Impact

This article explores the impact of a magnetic dipole on the heat transfer phenomena of different nano-particles Fe (ferromagnetic) and Fe3O4 (Ferrimagnetic) dispersed in a base fluid ( 60 % water + 40 % ethylene glycol) on micro-polar fluid flow over a stretching sheet. A magnetic dipole in the presence of the ferrities of nano-particles plays an important role in controlling the thermal and momentum boundary layers. The use of magnetic nano-particles is to control the flow and heat transfer process through an external magnetic field. The governing system of partial differential equations is transformed into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using appropriate similarity variables, and the transformed equations are then solved numerically by using a variational finite element method. The impact of different physical parameters on the velocity, the temperature, the Nusselt number, and the skin friction coefficient is shown. The velocity profile decreases in the order Fe (ferromagnetic fluid) and Fe3O4 (ferrimagnetic fluid). Furthermore, it was observed that the Nusselt number is decreasing with the increasing values of boundary parameter ( δ ) , while there is controversy with respect to the increasing values of radiation parameter ( N ) . Additionally, it was observed that the ferromagnetic case gained maximum thermal conductivity, as compared to ferrimagnetic case. In the end, the convergence of the finite element solution was observed; the calculations were found by reducing the mesh size.

PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the steady flow and heat transfer of a Cu-Al2O3/water hybrid nanofluid over a nonlinear permeable stretching/shrinking surface with radiation effects. The surface velocity condition is assumed to be of the power-law form with an exponent of 1/3. The governing equations of the problem are converted into a system of similarity equations by using a similarity transformation.Design/methodology/approachThe problem is solved numerically using the boundary value problem solver (bvp4c) in Matlab software. The results of the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number as well as the velocity and temperature profiles are presented through graphs and tables for several values of the parameters. The effects of these parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are examined and discussed.FindingsResults found that dual solutions exist for a certain range of the stretching/shrinking and suction parameters. The increment of the skin friction coefficient and reduction of the local Nusselt number on the shrinking sheet is observed with the increasing of copper (Cu) nanoparticle volume fractions for the upper branch. The skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number increase when suction parameter is increased for the upper branch. Meanwhile, the temperature increases in the presence of the radiation parameter for both branches.Originality/valueThe problem of Cu-Al2O3/water hybrid nanofluid flow and heat transfer over a nonlinear permeable stretching/shrinking surface with radiation effects is the important originality of the present study where the dual solutions for the flow reversals are obtained.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to address entropy generation in flow of thixotropic nonlinear radiative nanoliquid over a variable stretching surface with impacts of inclined magnetic field, Joule heating, viscous dissipation, heat source/sink and chemical reaction. Characteristics of nanofluid are described by Brownian motion and thermophoresis effect. At surface of the sheet zero mass flux and convective boundary condition are considered. Design/methodology/approach Considered flow problem is mathematically modeled and the governing system of partial differential equations is transformed into ordinary ones by using suitable transformation. The transformed ordinary differential equations system is figure out by homotopy algorithm. Outcomes of pertinent flow variables on entropy generation, skin friction, concentration, temperature, velocity, Bejan, Sherwood and Nusselts numbers are examined in graphs. Major outcomes are concluded in final section. Findings Velocity profile increased versus higher estimation of material and wall thickness parameter while it decays through larger Hartmann number. Furthermore, skin friction coefficient upsurges subject to higher values of Hartmann number and magnitude of skin friction coefficient decays via materials parameters. Thermal field is an increasing function of Hartmann number, radiation parameter, thermophoresis parameter and Eckert number. Originality/value The authors have discussed entropy generation in flow of thixotropic nanofluid over a variable thicked surface. No such consideration is yet published in the literature.
