The Impact

The impact of variable fluid properties (viscosity and thermal conductivity) and magnetic dipole on biomagnetic Maxwell fluid past a stretching sheet with slip velocity and heat generation/absorptionhave been studied. Similarity transformation technique is adopted to obtain the self-similar coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Using similarity variable, the basic governing equations with boundary conditions are transformed and solved in bvp4c technique with MATLAB software. The contribution of different pertinent parameters such as viscosity, thermal conductivity and ferromagnetic parameter on the flow profiles with physical quantities are analyzed and examined through graphically. Results shown that with increasing ferromagnetic parameter, slip parameter, Maxwell parameter, velocity decreases but temperature increases. For accuracy of the proposed model to compare our numerical results in numerically and graphically with the previousliterature under some limiting cases and a good agreement is found. Dhaka Univ. J.

Fluid Properties

An analysis is performed to study the effect of variable viscosity and variable thermal conductivity on the flow and heat transfer of a thin viscoelastic liquid (obeying Walters' liquid B model) film on a horizontal unsteady stretching sheet taking into account the effect of viscous dissipation. The fluid viscosity is assumed to decrease exponentially with temperature but the thermal conductivity is assumed to vary as a linear function of temperature. Numerical solutions are obtained for some representative values of the viscosity and thermal conductivity variation parameters, unsteadiness parameter, and Eckert number. Typical temperature and velocity profiles, dimensionless film thickness, free-surface velocity and temperature, local skin-friction coefficient, and the local surface heat flux are obtained for a wide range of governing parameters. In general, it is found that a viscoelastic fluid is more sensitive to the variable fluid properties effect than a Newtonian fluid. Also, for constant and (or) variable fluid properties, the film thickness and the local surface heat flux of a viscoelastic fluid is small compared to that of a Newtonian fluid. For all values of the variable viscosity parameter and for both viscoelastic and Newtonian fluid films, the viscous dissipation effect increases the free-surface temperature significantly whereas it reduces the heat transfer rate markedly. However, viscous dissipation does not influence the velocity profiles of both Newtonian and viscoelastic liquid films impressively although the film thickness changes noticeably.

The Impact

AbstractThe present investigation deals with the steady three-dimensional flow and heat transfer of nanofluids due to stretching sheet in the presence of magnetic field and heat source. Three types of water based nanoparticles namely, copper (Cu), aluminium oxide (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are considered in this study. The temperature dependent variable thermal conductivity and thermal radiation has been introduced in the energy equation. Using suitable similarity transformations the dimensional non-linear expressions are converted into dimensionless system and are then solved numerically by Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme along with well-known shooting technique. The impact of various flow parameters on axial and transverse velocities, temperature, surface frictional coefficients and rate of heat transfer coefficients are visualized both in qualitative and quantitative manners in the vicinity of stretching sheet. The results reviled that the temperature and velocity of the fluid rise with increasing values of variable thermal conductivity parameter. Also, the temperature and normal velocity of the fluid in case of Cu-water nanoparticles is more than that of Al2O3- water nanofluid. On the other hand, the axial velocity of the fluid in case of Al2O3- water nanofluid is more than that of TiO2nanoparticles. In addition, the current outcomes are matched with the previously published consequences and initiate to be a good contract as a limiting sense.
