The present phenomena address the slip velocity effects on mixed convection flow of electrically conducting fluid with surface temperature and free stream velocity oscillation over a non-conducting horizontal cylinder. To remove the difficulties in illustrating the coupled PDE, the primitive variable formulation for finite dif?ference technique is proposed to transform dimensionless equations into primitive form. The numerical simulations of coupled non-dimensional equations are exam?ined in terms of fluid slip velocity, temperature, and magnetic velocity which are used to calculate the oscillating components of skin friction, heat transfer, and cur?rent density for various emerging parameters magnetic force parameter, ?, mixed convection parameter, ?, magnetic Prandtl number, ?, Prandtl number, and slip factor, SL. It is observed that the effect of slip flow on the non-conducting cylinder is reduced the fluid motion. A minimum oscillating behavior is noted in skin friction at each position but maximum amplitude of oscillation in heat transfer is observed at each position ? = ?/4 and 2?/3. It is further noticed that a fluid velocity increas?es sharply with the impact of slip factor on the fluid-flow mechanism. Moreover, due to frictional forces with lower magnitude between viscous layers, the rise in Prandtl number leads to decrease in skin fiction and heat transfer which is physi?cally in good agreement.

Abstract The unsteady laminar boundary layer characteristics of mixed convection flow past a vertical wedge have been investigated numerically. The free-stream velocity and surface temperature are assumed to be oscillating in the magnitude but not in the direction of the oncoming flow velocity. The governing equations have been solved by two distinct methods, namely, the straightforward finite difference method for the entire frequency range, and the extended series solution for low frequency range and the asymptotic series expansion method for high frequency range. The results demonstrate the effects of the Richardson number, Ri, introduced to quantify the influence of mixed convection and the Prandtl number, Pr, on the amplitudes and phase angles of the skin friction and heat transfer. In addition, the effects of these parameters are examined in terms of the transient skin friction and heat transfer.

Abstract Numerical solutions of the momentum and energy equations are presented for particular types of laminar boundary-layer flow analogous to the Hartree “wedge flows.” Variation of the viscosity and of the thermal conductivity is considered under the circumstances of no dissipation, favorable pressure gradient, and the product of conductivity and density a constant. The solution is based on approximate representations of the velocity and temperature profiles in the boundary layer and these are of such character that the labor of calculation is minimized and the accuracy of the results preserved. The differential equations are reduced to two algebraic equations which rapidly yield the skin friction and the heat transfer in terms of the wall to free-stream temperature ratio for the desired value of Prandtl number. Numerical results are given for a range of wedge flows with gases of Prandtl number 0.70 and 1.0. These results reveal that when the free-stream velocity is variable the temperature difference between the wall and the free stream exerts a substantial effect on the velocity distribution in the boundary layer and on the skin-friction coefficient. Alternatively, the heat-transfer coefficient is not affected radically. A calculation method is presented for the determination of the heat transfer and skin friction for a flow with an arbitrary variation of velocity over an isothermal surface. This method utilizes the results of the present analysis for the variable property wedge flows.

The flow an  heat transfer on the unstea y laminar mixe  convection boun ary layer in a micropolar flui  past a vertical we ge have been stu ie  taking into account the effect of magnetic fiel . We assume that the free stream velocity an  surface temperature oscillate in magnitu e but not in the  irection of the oncoming flow velocity. The governing equations have been solve  numerically by using the straight forwar  finite  ifference metho . The amplitu es of skin friction an  couple stress are foun  to be significantly  epen ent on the Richar son’s number, Ri, the magnetic parameter, M, an  the vortex viscosity parameter, K. We observe that the amplitu es of skin friction an  couple stress increases owing to an increase of the Richar son’s number, Ri, while these become lower for the higher value of the magnetic parameter, M, an  the vortex viscosity parameter, K. Also the results  emonstrate that the effects of the parameters on the amplitu es of heat transfer are rather weak. Dhaka Univ. J. Sci. 64(1): 65-70, 2016 (January)

In this paper, we examine the mixed convection flow with slip and convective heat transfer along a continuously moving vertical plate in the presence of uniform free stream. The plate and free stream velocity being in the same direction. The governing equations of continuity, momentum and energy for this boundary-layer flow are transformed into one set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations using the local similarity transformation and are then solved using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method along with the shooting technique. The fluid flow and heat transfer distributions are discussed and presented graphically. Skin-friction and the Nusselt number at the plate surface are obtained for various values of the physical parameters and presented in tabular form and the physical aspects of these results are discussed.

Purpose The purpose of the present study is to analyze the mixed convection water boundary layer flows over moving vertical plate with variable viscosity and Prandtl number. The non-linear partial differential equation governing the flow and thermal fields are presented in non-dimensional form by using appropriate transformation. The quasi-linearization technique in combination with implicit finite difference scheme has been adopted to solve the nonlinear-coupled partial differential equation. The numerical results are displayed graphically to illustrate the influence of various non-dimensional physical parameters on velocity and temperature. Further, the numerical results for local skin-friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are also reported. The present findings are compared with previously reported results, and these comparisons are found to be in excellent agreement. Design/methodology/approach The nonlinear partial differential equations governing the flow and thermal fields have been solved numerically using the implicit finite difference scheme in combination with the quasi-linearization technique. The numerical results are presented in terms of skin friction and heat transfer rate which are useful in determining the surface heat requirements for stabilizing the laminar boundary layer flow over a moving plate in water. Findings The effect of the ratio of free-stream velocity to the composite reference velocity is significant on the velocity profile. Near the wall region, as ratio of free stream velocity to composite reference velocity increases form 0.1 to 0.5, the velocity overshoot gets enhanced from 3 per cent to 41 per cent. The influence of buoyancy parameter and ration of free stream velocity to composite reference velocity on temperature profile is comparatively less than on velocity profiles. The increase in the skin friction coefficient is dependent on the increase in the value of ratio of free stream velocity to composite reference velocity if the buoyancy parameter λ is fixed and vice versa and increases in ΔT results in a decrease in N and Pr. Originality/value The present investigation is to deal with the solution of steady laminar water boundary layer flows over a moving plate with temperature-dependent viscosity and Prandtl number applicable for water using practical data. The fluid considered here is water, as it is one of the most common working fluids found in engineering applications.
