In this mathematical study, magnetohydrodynamic, time-independent nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet by using the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is inspected. The impact of the thermal, solutal boundary and gravitational body forces with the effect of double stratification on the mass flow and heat transfer phenomena is also observed. The temperature-dependent viscosity impact on heat transfer through a moving sheet with capricious heat generation in nanofluids have studied, and the viscosity of the fluid is presumed to deviate as the inverse function of temperature. With the appropriate transformations, the system of partial differential equations is transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. By applying the variational finite element method, the transformed system of equations is solved. The properties of the several parameters for buoyancy, velocity, temperature, stratification, and Brownian motion parameters have examined. The enhancement in the concentration and thermal boundary layer thickness of the nanofluid sheet due to the increment in the viscosity parameter, also increased the temperature and concentration of nanoparticles. Moreover, the fluid temperature declined with the increasing values of thermal relaxation parameter. This displays that the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model provides a better assessment of temperature distribution. Moreover, confirmation of the code and precision of the numerical method has inveterate with the valuation of the presented results with previous studies.

In this article, the boundary layer flow of a viscous nanofluid induced by an exponentially stretching surface embedded in a permeable medium with the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model (CCHFM) is scrutinized. We took three distinct kinds of nanoparticles, such as alumina (Al2O3), titania (TiO2) and copper (Cu) with pure water as the base fluid. The features of the heat transfer mechanism, as well as the influence of the relaxation parameter on the present viscous nanofluid flow are discussed here thoroughly. The thermal stratification is taken in this phenomenon. First of all, the problem is simplified mathematically by utilizing feasible similarity transformations and then solved analytically through the OHAM (optimal homotopy analysis method) to get accurate analytical solutions. The change in temperature distribution and axial velocity for the selected values of the specific parameters has been graphically portrayed in figures. An important fact is observed when the thermal relaxation parameter (TRP) is increased progressively. Graphically, it is found that an intensification in this parameter results in the exhaustion of the fluid temperature together with an enhancement in the heat transfer rate. A comparative discussion is also done over the Fourier’s law and Cattaneo–Christov model of heat.

Abstract A rigorous analysis of coupled nonlinear equations for third-grade viscoelastic power-law non-Newtonian fluid is presented. Initially, the governing partial differential equations for conservation of energy and momentum are transformed to nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations using exact similarity transformations which are known as Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model for third-grade power-law fluid. The homotopy analysis method (HAM) is utilized to approximate the systematic solutions more precisely with shear-thickening, moderately shear-thinning, and most shear-thinning fluids. The solution depends on various parameters including Prandtl number, power index, and temperature variation coefficient. A systematic analysis of boundary-layer flow demonstrates the impact of these parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles.

The study is concerned with the heat transfer in a slip flow of a dusty fluid with the impact of a magnetic field and nonlinear thermal radiation. Furthermore, for the heat transfer process the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is used. Suitable similarity transformations are used to transform the governing equations. Later, shooting method and the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg's fourth fifth order (RKF-45) process are utilized to solve these reduced system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Impact of numerous involved parameters on the flow, thermal fields of both dust and fluid phase, skin friction and rate of heat transfer are visually plotted through graphs and discussed quantitatively. The significant outcomes drawn from the current study are that, the rise in value of the velocity slip parameter decreases the velocity profile but improves the thermal profile of both the phases. The growing values of curvature parameter intensify the flow and the thermal fields of both phases. The cumulative values of magnetic parameter and dust particle mass concentration parameter declines the velocity and thermal gradients of both phases. The thermal relaxation time parameter decays the temperature profile. The heat transfer rate is strengthened with the growing values of the curvature parameter, the velocity slip parameter, and radiation parameter.

This paper provides a substantial amount of study related to coupled fluid flow and heat conduction of an upper-convected-Maxwell viscoelastic liquid over a stretching plane with slip velocity. A new model, presented by Christov, for thermal convection is employed. The partial differential equations are converted to ordinary differential equations by using appropriate transformation variables. The transformed equations are solved analytically by using the Galerkin method. For the sake of soundness, a comparison is done with a numerical method, and good agreement is found. The impacts of various parameters like slip coefficient, elasticity number, the thermal relaxation time of heat flow, and the Prandtl number over the temperature and velocity fields are studied. Furthermore, the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is compared with Fourier’s law. Additionally, the present results are also verified by associating with the published work as a limiting case.
