Shrinking Surface

Viscous flow over a porous and stretching (shrinking) surface of an arbitrary shape is investigated in this article. New dimensions of the modeled problem are explored through the existing mathematical analogies in such a way that it generalizes the classical simulations. The latest principles provide a framework for unification, and the consolidated approach modifies the classical formulations. A realistic model is presented with new features in order to explain variety of previous observations on the said problems. As a result, new and upgraded version of the problem is appeared for all such models. A set of new, unusual, and generalized transformations is formed for the velocity components and similarity variables. The modified transformations are equipped with generalized stretching (shrinking), porous velocities, and surface geometry. The boundary layer governing equations are reduced into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using the unification procedure and technique. The set of ODEs has two unknown functions f and g. The modeled equations have five different parameters, which help us to reduce the problem into all previous formulations. The problem is solved analytically and numerically. The current simulation and its solutions are also compared with existing models for specific value of the parameters, and excellent agreement is found between the solutions.

Abstract In this work, an analysis is presented for the unsteady axisymmetric flow of Oldroyd-B nanofluid generated by an impermeable stretching cylinder with heat and mass transport under the influence of heat generation/absorption, thermal radiation and first-order chemical reaction. Additionally, thermal and solutal performances of nanofluid are studied using an interpretation of the well-known Buongiorno's model, which helps us to determine the attractive characteristics of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion. Firstly, the governing unsteady boundary layer equation's (PDEs) are established and then converted into highly non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by using the suitable similarity transformations. For the governing non-linear ordinary differential equations, numerical integration in domain [0, ∞) is carried out using the BVP Midrich scheme in Maple software. For the velocity, temperature and concentration distributions, reliable results are prepared for different physical flow constraints. According to the results, for increasing values of Deborah numbers, the temperature and concentration distribution are higher in terms of relaxation time while these are decline in terms of retardation time. Moreover, thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption are increased the temperature distribution and corresponding boundary layer thickness. With previously stated numerical values, the acquired solutions have an excellent accuracy.

The effect of variable heat source on viscoelastic fluid of CuO-oil based nanofluid over a porous nonlinear stretching surface is analyzed. The problem was modelled in the form of partial differential equations and transformed into a coupled fourth order ordinary differential equations by similarity techniques. It was further reduced to a system of first order ordinary differential equations and solved numerically using the fourth order Runge-Kutta algorithm with a shooting method. The results for various controlling parameters have been tabulated and the flow profiles graphically illustrated. The study revealed that the viscoelastic parameter has a decreasing effect on the magnitude of both the skin friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer from the surface. It enhanced the momentum boundary layer thickness whilst adversely affecting the thermal boundary layer thickness.

In this study a mathematical analysis has been carried out to scrutinize the unsteady boundary layer flow of an incompressible, rarefied gaseous flow over a vertical stretching sheet with velocity slip and thermal jump boundary conditions in the presence of thermal radiation. Using boundary layer approach and suitable similarity transformations, the governing partial differential equations with the boundary conditions are reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations. The resulting non-linear ordinary differential equations are solved with the help of fourth order Runge-Kutta method with shooting technique. The results obtained for the velocity profile, temperature profile, skin friction coefficient and the reduced Nusselt number are described through graphs. It is predicted that the velocity and temperature profiles are lower for unsteady flow and has an opposite effect for steady flow.

This note proposes a non-inertial similarity solution for the classic von Kármán swirling flow as perceived from the rotational frame. The solution is obtained by implementing non-inertial similarity parameters in the non-inertial boundary layer equations. This reduces the partial differential equations to a set of ordinary differential equations that is solved through an integration routine and shooting method.

The Mathematical Model

The mathematical model of a chemical reaction which takes place on the surface of the uniformly moving vertically imbedded glass fibre material is considered. The effect of gravitation is taken into account. Boussinesq's and boundary layer fittings allow to derive boundary value problems for self‐similar systems of ordinary differential equations.
