Abstract In the current study is to examine numerically the effects of presence of a radial magnetic field, slip and jump conditions on the steady two-dimensional free convective boundary layer flow over an external surface of a vertical cone for an electro-conductive polymer. A proper non-similarity transformation simplifies the system of partial differential equations into a system of ordinary differential equations. The collocation formula in the MATLAB software then solves the system of non-similarity equations. The finding results show that, a weak elevation in temperature is accompanied with the increase in the Carreau fluid parameter, whereas a significant acceleration in the flow is computed near the cone surface. The study is relevant to smart coating transport phenomena.

In this article, the intention is to explore the flow of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) bioconvective micro-polar Nanofluid restraining microorganism. The numerical solution of 2-D laminar bioconvective boundary layer flow of micro-polar nanofluids are presented. The phenomena of multi-slip, convective thermal and Solutal boundary conditions have been integrated. A system of non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into the system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying appropriate transformations, the transformed equations are then solved by applying the variational finite element method (FEM). The fascinating features of assorted velocity parameter, microrotation, temperature, microorganism compactness, solutal and nanoparticles concentration have been inspected. The rate of heat transfer, the skin friction coefficient, couple stress and Sherwood number for microorganisms have also been discussed graphically and numerically. The investigations illustrated that increase in material parameters causes a reduction in microorganism compactness, concentration and temperature. As a result of enhancement in the unsteadiness parameter, the fluid velocity, concentration of microorganisms and the temperature are observed to be declines. Energy and microorganism compactness profile affected by the improvement in the buoyancy ratio parameter. As the improvement in results of buoyancy ratio parameter effects on improvement in the energy and the microorganism compactness profile while the velocity profile is condensed. In the end, rationalized convergence of the finite element solution has been inspected; the computations are found out via depreciating the mesh size.

The steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting dusty fluid past a vertical permeable stretching sheet under the influence of a transverse magnetic field with the viscous and Joule dissipation is investigated. The fluid particles are assumed to be heat absorbing and the temperature at the surface of the sheet is a result of convective heating. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed to a set of highly nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations using a suitable similarity transformation and the resulting system is then solved numerically. It is found inter alia that the contributions of viscous and Joule dissipation in the flow are to increase the thickness of the thermal boundary layer.

Analysis has been carried out for the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of nanofluid. The flow is caused by a permeable stretching sheet. Convective type boundary conditions are employed in modeling the heat and mass transfer process. Appropriate transformations reduce the nonlinear partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations. The convergent series solutions are constructed. Graphical results of different parameters are discussed. The behaviors of Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion of nanoparticles have been examined. The dimensionless expressions of local Nusselt and local Sherwood numbers have been evaluated and discussed.

This paper is focused on the analysis of thermophoresis on an unsteady two dimensional free convective boundary layer flow along a permeable inclined flat plate in the presence of magnetic field and thermophoresis. Governing time dependent partial differential equations are non- dimensionalzed and transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying similarity transformations. These are solved numerically by using the shooting method along with Runge-Kutta sixth order integration scheme. Numerical results for the dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles have been obtained and displayed graphically. The skin-friction coefficient, wall heat transfer coefficient and wall deposition flux rate have also been obtained and are presented in tabular form. The obtained numerical results also show that increased unsteadiness parameter significantly controls the thermophoretic particle.
