Buongiorno Model

The present article investigates heat transfer and pseudoplastic nanomaterial liquid flow over a vertical thin cylinder. The Buongiorno model is used for this analysis. The problem gains more significance when temperature-dependent variable viscosity is taken into account. Using suitable similarity variables, nonlinear flow equations are first converted into ordinary differential equations. The generating structure is solved by the MATLAB BVP4C algorithm. Newly developed physical parameters are focused. It is observed that the heat transfer rate and the skin friction coefficient is increased remarkably because of mixing nano-particles in the base fluid by considering γb=1, 2, 3, 4 and λ=1, 1.5, 2, 2.5,3. It is found that the temperature field increases by inclining the values of thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters. It is also evaluated that the velocity field decreases by increasing the values of the curvature parameter, Weissenberg number and buoyancy ratio characteristics.

Buongiorno Model

Nanofluids are used as coolants in heat transport devices like heat exchangers, radiators, and electronic cooling systems (like a flat plate) because of their improved thermal properties. The preeminent perspective of this study is to highlight the influence of combined convection on heat transfer and pseudoplastic non-Newtonian nanofluid flow towards an extendable Riga surface. Buongiorno model is incorporated in the present study to tackle a diverse range of Reynolds numbers and to analyze the behavior of the pseudoplastic nanofluid flow. Nanofluid features are scrutinized through Brownian motion and thermophoresis diffusion. By the use of the boundary layer principle, the compact form of flow equations is transformed into component forms. The modeled system is numerically simulated. The effects of various physical parameters on skin friction, mass transfer, and thermal energy are numerically computed. Fluctuations of velocity increased when modified Hartmann number and mixed convection parameter are boosted, where it collapses for Weissenberg number and width parameter. It can be revealed that the temperature curve gets down if modified Hartmann number, mixed convection, and buoyancy ratio parameters upgrade. Concentration patterns diminish when there is an incline in width parameter and Lewis number; on the other hand, it went upward for Brownian motion parameter, modified Hartmann, and Prandtl number.

In this study, a numerical approach was adopted in order to explore the analysis of magneto fluid in the presence of thermal radiation combined with mixed convective and slip conditions. Using the similarity transformation, the axisymmetric three-dimensional boundary layer equations were reduced to a self-similar form. The shooting technique, combined with the Range–Kutta–Fehlberg method, was used to solve the resulting coupled nonlinear momentum and heat transfer equations numerically. When physically interpreting the data, some important observations were made. The novelty of the present study lies in finding help to control the rate of heat transfer and fluid velocity in any industrial manufacturing processes (such as the cooling of metallic plates). The numerical results revealed that the Nusselt number decrease for larger Prandtl number, curvature, and convective parameters. At the same time, the skin friction coefficient was enhanced with an increase in both slip velocity and convective parameter. The effect of emerging physical parameters on velocity and temperature profiles for a nonlinear stretching cylinder has been thoroughly studied and analyzed using plotted graphs and tables.

The problem of steady laminar hydromagnetic heat transfer by mixed convection flow over a vertical plate embedded in a uniform porous medium in the presence of a uniform normal magnetic field is studied. Convective heat transfer through porous media has wide applications in engineering problems such as in high temperature heat exchangers and in insulation problems. We construct solutions for the free convection boundary-layer flow equations using an Adomian–Padé approximation method that in the recent past has proven to be an able alternative to the traditional numerical techniques. The effects of the various flow parameters such as the Eckert, Hartmann, and Schmidt numbers on the skin friction coefficient and the concentration, velocity, and temperature profiles are discussed and presented graphically. A comparison of our results with those obtained using traditional numerical methods in earlier studies is made, and the results show an excellent agreement. The results demonstrate the reliability and the efficiency of the Adomian–Padé method in an unbounded domain.

Abstract The 3D flow of non-Newtonian nanoliquid flows past a bidirectional stretching sheet with heat transfer is investigated in the present study. It is assumed that viscosity of the liquid varies with temperature. Carreau non-Newtonain model, Tiwari and Das nanofluid model are used to formulate the problem. The impacts of Joule heating, nonlinear radiation and non-uniform (space and temperature dependent) heat source/sink are accounted. Al-Cu-CH3OH and Cu-CH3OH are considered as nanoliquids for the present study. The solution of the problem is attained by the application of shooting and R.K. numerical procedures. Graphical and tabular illustrations are incorporated with a view of understanding the influence of various physical parameters on the flow field. We eyed that using of Al-Cu alloy nanoparticles in the carrier liquid leads to superior heat transfer ability instead of using only Aluminum nanoparticles. Weissenberg number and viscosity parameter have inclination to exalt the thermal field.

In this attempt, melting heat transfer characteristic of unsteady squeezed nanofluid flows in non-Darcy porous medium is interrogated. The nanofluid model incorporates Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis to characterize the heat and mass transport in the presence of thermal and solutal stratification. Similarity solutions are implemented to acquire nonlinear system of ordinary differential equations which are then evaluated using Homotopic technique. Flow behavior of involved physical parameters is examined and explanations are stated through graphs. We determine and analyze skin friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers through graphs. It is evident that larger melting parameter results in decrement in temperature field, while horizontal velocity enhances for higher melting parameter. Moreover, temperature and concentration fields are dominant for higher Brownian diffusion parameter.

Fluid Flow Analysis

This paper investigates fluid motion generated by cilia and a pressure gradient in a curved channel. The flow analysis is carried out in the presence of heat transfer and radial magnetic field. The leading equations are simplified under the familiar suppositions of large wavelength and small Reynolds number approximations. An exact solution has been developed for the velocity profile. The flow characteristics of the viscous fluid are computed in the presence of cilia and metachronal wave velocity. The effects of several stimulating parameters on the flow and heat transfer are studied in detail through graphs. It is found that symmetry of the velocity profile is broken owing to bending of the channel. The radially varying magnetic field decreases the velocity field, but near the left ciliated wall it induces the opposite behavior. It is also found that velocity profile increases due to increase in buoyancy forces throughout the domain. Numerical consequences for velocity profile are also accessible in the table for diverse values of the physical parameters.

Flow And Heat Transfer

The velocity and thermal slip impacts on the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) nanofluid flow and heat transfer through a stretched thin sheet are discussed in the paper. The no slip condition is substituted for a new slip condition consisting of higher-order slip and constitutive equation. Similarity transformation and Lie point symmetry are adopted to convert the derived governed equations to ordinary differential equations. An approximate analytical solution is gained through the homotopy analysis method. The impacts of velocity slip, temperature jump, and other physical parameters on flow and heat transfer are illustrated. Results indicate that the first-order slip and nonlinear slip parameters reduce the velocity boundary layer thickness and Nusselt number, whereas the effect on shear stress is converse. The temperature jump parameter causes a rise in the temperature, but a decline in the Nusselt number. With the increase of the order, we can get that the error reaches 10 − 6 from residual error curve. In addition, the velocity contours and the change of skin friction coefficient are computed through Ansys Fluent.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to consider axisymmetric mixed convection flow of water over a sphere with variable viscosity and Prandtl number and an applied magnetic field. Design/methodology/approach The non-similar solutions have been obtained from the origin of the streamwise co-ordinate to the point of zero skin friction using quasilinearization technique with an implicit finite-difference scheme. Findings The effect of M is not notable on the temperature and heat transfer coefficient when λ is large. The skin friction coefficient and velocity profile are enhance with the increase of MHD parameter M when λ is small. Viscous dissipation has no significant on the skin friction coefficient under MHD effect. For M=1, the movement of the slot or slot suction or slot injection do not cause any effect on flow separation. The slot suction and the movement of the slot in downstream direction delay the point of zero skin friction for M=0. Originality/value The present results are original and new for water boundary-layer flow over sphere in mixed convection flow with MHD effect and non-uniform mass transfer. So this study would be useful in analysing the skin friction and heat transfer coefficient on sphere of mixed convection flow of water boundary layer with MHD effect.

Nonlinear Stretching

The present study investigated the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow over a radially nonlinear stretching sheet along with the viscosity dependent on temperature, convective boundary condition, thermo-diffusion, and the radiation effects. Moreover, the nanofluid’s viscous effects were considered dependent on temperature and the exponential Reynolds model was considered in this context. It was additionally assumed that a uniform suspension of nanoparticles is present in the base fluid. The Buongiorno model, which involves the thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects, was considered. For the sake of a solution, the variational finite element method was selected with coding in MATLAB and the numerical results were contrasted with the published articles. The influence of various physical parameters on the velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles are discussed by the aid of graphs and tables. It was detected that the nanofuid viscosity parameter declines the fluid flow velocity, while, for the temperature and the concentration profiles, it accomplished the reverse phenomenon.

In this paper, we present a numerical study of the flow characteristics and heat transfer mechanism of a non-Newtonian fluid in an annular space between two coaxial rotating cylinders taking into account the effect of viscous dissipation. The Carreau stress-strain relation was adopted to model the rheological fluid behavior. The problem is studied when the heated inner cylinder rotates around the common axis with constant angular velocity and the cooled outer cylinder is at the rest. The horizontal endplates are assumed adiabatic. In-house code which is based on a Galerkin mixed finite element is developed to obtain numerical solutions of the complete governing equations and associated boundary conditions and is validated with the results reported in the literature. It is found that five parameters can describe the problem under consideration, the Reynolds number (Re), the Grashof number (Gr), the index of structure (n), Weissenberg number (We) and the Eckert number (Ec). The velocity, temperature and stream function distributions and the local Nusselt number variations are drawn for different dimensionless groups.
