The prime objective of this article is to explore the entropy analysis of third-order nanofluid fluid slip flow caused by a stretchable sheet implanted in a porous plate along with thermal radiation, convective surface boundary, non-Fourier heat flux applications, and nanoparticle concentration on zero mass flux conditions. The governing physical systems are modified into non-linear ordinary systems with the aid of similarity variables, and the outcomes are solved by a homotopy analysis scheme. The impression of certain governing flow parameters on the nanoparticle concentration, temperature, and velocity is illustrated through graphs, while the alteration of many valuable engineering parameters viz. the Nusselt number and Sherwood number are depicted in graphs. Entropy generation with various parameters is obtained and discussed in detail. The estimation of entropy generation using the Bejan number find robust application in power engineering and aeronautical propulsion to forecast the smartness of entire system.

The growing development in the thermal engineering and nano-technology, much attention has been paid on the thermal properties of nanoparticles which convey many applications in industrial, technological and medical era of sciences. The noteworthy applications of nano-materials included heat transfer enhancement, thermal energy, solar systems, cooling of electronics, controlling the heat mechanisms etc. Beside this, entropy generation is an optimized scheme which reflects significances in thermodynamics systems to control the higher energy efficiency. On this end, present work presents the slip flow of Jeffrey nanofluid over a stretching sheet with applications of activation energy and viscous dissipation. The entropy generation features along with Bejan number significance is also addressed in present analysis. Buongiorno model of nanofluid is used to discuss the heat and mass transfer. The formulated flow equations are attained into non-dimensional form. An appropriate ND MATHEMATICA built-in scheme is used to find the solution. The solution confirmation is verified by performing the error analysis. For developed flow model and impacted parameters, a comprehensive graphical analysis is performed. It is observed that slip phenomenon is used to decays the velocity profile. Temperature and concentration are in direct relation with Brownian motion parameter and activation energy respectively. Entropy and Bejan number have same results for greater diffusion parameter.

The present study explores the slip flow and heat transfer induced by a radially surface with MHD Carreau nanofluid. In addition, the effects of temperature jump, non-linear radiation and the dependent zero mass flux also taken into account. This study also considers the cross-diffusion effect on temperature and concentration governing profiles. Appropriate transformations are engaged in order to acquire nonlinear differential equations (ODEs) from the partial differential system, their solutions are obtained by Runge-Kutta 4th order with shooting scheme in MATLAB. The impact of pertinent flow parameters such as first and second order velocity slip parameter, temperature jump, magnetic parameter, heat source, radiation parameter, melting surface parameter, temperature ratio parameter on dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles achieved graphically as well as local skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are demonstrated in the form of Table. first order velocity slip parameter (slip1) on f′, Θ and Φ profile fields. With an increment in the velocity slip first order parameter (slip1) we have perceived a fall in the momentum boundary layer and concentration profiles and a growth in the fluid temperature field.

The behavior of convective boundary conditions is studied to delineate their role in heat and mass relegation in the presence of radiation, chemical reaction, and hydromagnetic forces in three-dimensional Powell-Eyring nanofluids. Implications concerning non-Fourier’s heat flux and non-Fick’s mass flux with respect to temperature nanoparticle concentration were examined to discuss the graphical attributes of the principal parameters. An efficient optimal homotopy analysis method is used to solve the transformed partial differential equations. Tables and graphs are physically interpreted for significant parameters

Here our purpose is to explore the entropy generation in nanofluid MHD flow by curved stretching sheet; second-order slip is considered. Additional effects of viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and activation energy are taken. Temperature and concentration boundary conditions are considered convectively. For convergence of series solution NDSolve MATHEMATICA is used. Velocity, Bejan number, concentration, temperature, and entropy generation graphs are sketched for important parameters. For greater estimations of first- and second-order velocity slip parameters fluid velocity reduces. The thermal and solutal Biot numbers enhance the temperature and concentration, respectively. The concentration also has direct relation with activation energy. Entropy generation reduces for chemical reaction parameter and first- and second-order slip parameters.

This investigation is about hybrid nanofluid flowing over a sheet. We considered two-dimensional Darcy–Forchheimer flow of different hybrid nanofluids with the influence of uniform heat source sink and nonlinear thermal radiation. Different nanoparticles can be used to improve the thermal conductivity of a liquid. A study comparing the various hybrid nanofluids to nanofluid is considered. Here, we have selected manganese Zinc ferrite and Nickel Zinc ferrite as nanoparticles with kerosene oil and engine oil as carrier liquids. Suitable similarity transformations are used to construct the required ordinary differential equations. The influence of several non-dimensional parameters on velocity and thermal gradients is analyzed through graphs. Also, entropy generation is computed and analyzed through graph for different involved parameters. Here, we observed that [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] had lower velocity when compared to other two solutions. The entropy generation and Bejan number are high in [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] when compared to [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] and increase in heat generation parameter increases the rate of heat transfer.

Abstract The current exploration focuses on the ethylene glycol (EG) based nanoliquid flow in a microchannel. The effectiveness of the internal heat source and linear radiation is reflected in the present investigation. The estimation of suitable thermal conductivity model has affirmative impact on the convective heat transfer phenomenon. The examination is conceded with the nanoparticle aggregation demonstrated by the Maxwell-Bruggeman and Krieger-Dougherty models which tackle the formation of nanolayer. These models effectively describe the thermal conductivity and viscosity correspondingly. The dimensionless mathematical expressions are solved numerically by the Runge Kutta Fehlberg approach. A higher thermal field is attained for the Bruggeman model due to the formation of thermal bridge. A second law analysis is carried out to predict the sources of irreversibility associated with the thermal system. It is remarked that lesser entropy generation is obtained for the aggregation model. The entropy generation rate declines with the slip flow and the thermal heat flux. A notable enhancement in the Bejan number is attained by increasing the Biot number. It is established that the nanoparticle aggragation model exhibits a higher Bejan number in comparision with the usual flow model.

This paper examines the effects of the thermodynamic second law on steady flow of an incompressible variable viscosity electrically conducting fluid in a channel with permeable walls and convective surface boundary conditions. The nonlinear model governing equations are solved numerically using shooting quadrature. Numerical results of the velocity and temperature profiles are utilised to compute the entropy generation number and the Bejan number. The results revealed that entropy generation minimization can be achieved by appropriate combination of the regulated values of thermophysical parameters controlling the flow systems.

Convective heat transfer in a channel partially filled with porous medium has received a lot of attention due to its wide engineering applications. However, most researches focused on a channel partially filled with single layer porous medium. In this paper, we will analyze the heat transfer and entropy generation inside a channel partially filled with N-layer porous media. The flow and the heat transfer in the porous region are described by the Darcy–Brinkman model and the local thermal nonequilibrium model, respectively. At the porous-free fluid interface, the momentum and the heat transfer are described by the stress jump boundary condition and the heat flux jump boundary condition, respectively; while at the interface between two different porous layers, the momentum and the heat transfer are described by the stress continuity boundary condition and the heat flux continuity boundary condition, respectively. The analytical solutions for the velocity and temperature in the channel are derived and used to calculate the overall Nusselt number, the total entropy generation rate, the Bejan number, and the friction factor. Furthermore, the performances of the flow and heat transfer of a channel partially filled with third-layer porous media are studied.
