Some analyses have been carried out to study the influence of suction/blowing, thermal radiation and temperature dependent fluid properties on the hydro-magnetic incompressible electrically conducting fluid flow and heat transfer over a permeable stretching surface with partial slip boundary conditions. It is assumed that the fluid viscosity and the thermal conductivity vary as an inverse function and linear function of temperature respectively. Using the similarity transformation, the governing system of non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations and are solved numerically using symbolic software MATHEMATICA 7.0. The effects of various physical parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics as well as the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are illustrated graphically. The physical aspects of the problem are highlighted and discussed.

The present paper deals with the boundary layer flow and heat transfer of an electrically conducting magnetohydrodynamic viscous fluid over a radially stretching power-law sheet with suction/injection within a porous medium by considering the effects of momentum and thermal slips and thermal radiation. The governing non-linear partial boundary layer differential equations are reduced to a  system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with the aid of appropriate similarity transformations. These transformed ODEs are then solved by employing a semi-analytic technique known as differential transformation method (DTM) in combination with Pade approximation. The numerical values of skin friction and local Nusselt number are tabulated and validated by comparing them with the corresponding values available in the literature. Our results have been found in precise agreement  with the results published earlier. The effects of different governing parameters on velocity and temperature distributions are analyzed graphically. It has been found that with an increase in the velocity slip parameter the fluid velocity decreases whereas the temperature of the fluid increases. Also, the fluid temperature gets enhanced with an increase in the radiation parameter, but it decreases with an increase in thermal slip.

The problem of a magneto-hydro dynamic flow and heat transfer to a non-Newtonian power-law fluid flow past a continuously moving flat porous plate in the presence of sucion/injection with heat flux by taking into consideration the viscous dissipation is analysed. The non-linear partial differential equations governing the flow and heat transfer are transformed into non-linear ordinary differential equations using appropriate transformations and then solved numerically by an implicit finite difference scheme. The solution is found to be dependent on various governing parameters including the magnetic field parameter M, power-law index n, suction/injection parameter ƒw, Prandtl number Pr and Eckert number Ec. A systematical study is carried out to illustrate the effects of these major parameters on the velocity profiles, temperature profile, skin friction coefficient and rate of heat transfer and the local Nusslet number.

AbstractAn analysis was carried out to describe the problem of flow and heat transfer of Powell–Eyring fluid in boundary layers on an exponentially stretching continuous permeable surface with an exponential temperature distribution in the presence of heat flux and variable thermal conductivity. The governing partial differential equations describing the problem were transformed into a set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations and then solved with a numerical technique using appropriate boundary conditions for various physical parameters. The numerical solution for the governing non-linear boundary value problem is based on applying the shooting method over the entire range of physical parameters. The effects of various parameters like the thermal conductivity parameter, suction parameter, dimensionless Powell–Eyring parameters and the Prandtl number on the flow and temperature profiles as well as on the local skin-friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number are presented and discussed. In this work, special attention was given to investigate the effect of the thermal conductivity parameter on the velocity and temperature fields above the sheet in the presence of heat flux. The numerical results were also validated with results from a previously published work on various special cases of the problem, and good agreements were seen.

Abstract An unsteady flow and melting heat transfer of a nanofluid over a stretching sheet was numerically studied by considering the effect of chemical reaction and thermal radiation. The governing non-linear partial differential equations describing the flow problem are reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations using the similarity transformations and solved numerically using the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg fourth–fifth order method. Numerical results for concentration, temperature and velocity profiles are shown graphically and discussed for different physical parameters. Effect of pertinent parameters on momentum, temperature and concentration profiles along with local Sherwood number, local skin-friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are well tabulated and discussed.

The present paper investigates the problem of flow and heat transfer in a two dimensional boundary layer flow of a nanofluid over a non-linear, permeable stretching/shrinking sheet by considering the effects of suction/blowing, momentum slip, thermal slips and thermal radiation. Three different types of spherical nanoparticles such as ,  and  are considered by taking water as the base fluid. With the aid of suitable similarity transformations, the governing non-linear partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary ones. A new analytical method namely DTM-BF, based on the differential transformation method (DTM) and base function (BF), has been applied to get approximate analytic solutions of these equations in an unbounded domain. Comparison of the present numerical results has been done with the corresponding results available in the literature and they have been found to be in good agreement. The effects of different physical parameters on the flow and temperature profiles have been presented graphically.

The problem of a steady boundary layer MHD slip flow over a stretching sheet in a water-based nanofluid containing different type of nanoparticles: Cu , Al2O3 and Ag has been investigated. An external strong magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plate and the Hall effect is taken into consideration. The surface of the stretching sheet is assumed to move with a linear velocity and subject to power-law variation of the surface temperature. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transformation, before being solved numerically by a Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method with shooting technique. Effects of the physical parameters on the primary velocity, the secondary velocity and the temperature as well as on the wall shear stress and the rate of heat transfer have been presented graphically and discussed in detail. Investigated results indicate that the nanoparticle volume fraction and the slip parameter produce opposite effects on the skin friction coefficients of the primary and secondary flow. Also, the nanoparticle volume fraction and the types of nanoparticles demonstrate a more pronounced influence on the secondary flow than that on the primary flow and temperature distribution.

AbstractA non-linear analysis has been made to study the unsteady hydromagnetic boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a micropolar fluid over a stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium. The effects of thermal radiation in the boundary layer flow over a stretching sheet have also been investigated. The system of governing partial differential equations in the boundary layer have reduced to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations using a suitable similarity transformation. The resulting non-linear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using an implicit finite difference scheme. The numerical results concern with the axial velocity, micro-rotation component and temperature profiles as well as local skin-friction coefficient and the rate of heat transfer at the sheet. The study reveals that the unsteady parameter S has an increasing effect on the flow and heat transfer characteristics.

In this study the effect of entropy generation on two dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a Maxwell fluid over an inclined stretching sheet embedded in a non-Darcian porous medium with velocity slip and convective boundary condition is investigated. Darcy-Forchheimer based model was employed to describe the flow in the porous medium. The non-linear thermal radiation is also taken into account. Similarity transformation is used to convert the non-linear partial differential equations to a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations. The resulting transformed equations are then solved using the Homotopy analysis method (HAM). Influence of various physical parameters on the dimensionless velocity profile, temperature profile and entropy generation are shown graphically and discussed in detail while the effects of these physical parameters on velocity gradient and temperature gradient are aided with the help of Table. Furthermore, comparison of some limiting cases of this model was made with existing results. The results obtained are found to be in good agreement with previously published results. Moreover, increase in local inertial coefficient parameter is found to decrease the entropy generation rate.

AbstractIn this paper, we extend the results in the literature for boundary layer flow over a horizontal plate, by considering the buoyancy force term in the momentum equation. Using a similarity transformation, we transform the partial differential equations of the problem into coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. We first analyse several special cases dealing with the properties of the exact and approximate solutions. Then, for the general problem, we construct series solutions for arbitrary values of the physical parameters. Furthermore, we obtain numerical solutions for several sets of values of the parameters. The numerical results thus obtained are presented through graphs and tables and the effects of the physical parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are discussed. The results obtained reveal many interesting behaviours that warrant further study of the equations related to non-Newtonian fluid phenomena, especially the shear-thinning phenomena. Shear thinning reduces the wall shear stress.

Flow And Heat Transfer

Nanofluid flow and heat transfer in a rotating system between two parallel plates in the presence of thermal radiation and heat source impacts are examined. One of the plates of the considered system is penetrable and the other one is stretchable or shrinkable. A similarity transformation is used to convert the governing momentum and energy equations into non-linear ordinary differential equations with the relevant boundary conditions. The achieved non-linear ordinary differential equations are solved by Duan-Rach Approach (DRA). This method allows us to realize a solution without applying numerical methods to evaluate the unspecified coefficients. The impacts of diverse active parameters such as the stretching/shrinking parameter, the radiation parameter, the heat source parameter, the suction/blowing parameter, the Reynolds number and the volume fraction of nanofluid on the velocity and temperature profiles are explored. Also, the correlation for the Nusselt number has been developed in terms of active parameters of the present study. The outcomes indicate that the Nusselt number is a raising function of the injection parameter, nanofluid volume fraction and the radiation parameter, while it is a decreasing function of the suction and heat source parameters. Furthermore, for injection case by soaring the shrinking parameter, the probability of occurrence of the backflow phenomenon soars.
