This study is related to the heat energy transfer during 3D nanofluid (water-based) motion over a rotating surface by incorporating the combined impacts of thermal radiations and couple stress. The flow is modeled by a set of non-linear coupled PDEs, which is converted to a set of coupled non-linear ODEs by using suitable similarity transformations. The transformed equations are solved with the built-in NDSolve command. The effects of relevant interesting parameters on the nanofluid velocity components and temperature distribution are explained through various graphs. It is found that the velocity component f(η) is increased with higher values of γ and A0 while it drops with an increasing rotation parameter and nanoparticle volume fraction. The fluid temperature increases with higher αnf, Rd, ϵ2, ϵ3, A1 and drops with increasing Pr, ϵ1 and couple stress parameter (A0). The Nusselt number remains constant at a fixed Pr and Rd, whereas it increases with increasing Pr and is reduced with rising Rd. A comparison between the achieved results is carried out with the analytical results through different tables. An excellent agreement is observed between these results.

Nonlinear density and temperature variation’s role (NDT) on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convective flow of couple stress fluid with nanoparticles through a vertical porous channel modeled as Darcy-Forchheimer flow is the purpose of our work. The nanoparticles volume fraction is taken into consideration (Buongiorno model). The nonlinear partial differential equations governing this flow were transformed into ordinary differential equations via the similarity technique and simulated numerically using Matlab, following boundary value problem (BVP4c) code. Graphical illustrations, including non-dimensional velocity, temperature, concentration, nanoparticle’s concentration and numerical results containing Nusselt and Sherwood numbers were presented for different values of the non-linear part of the Boussinesq approximation; couple stress parameter, and the Biot number on the walls.

AbstractIn the current study, a three dimensional incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) nanofluid flow over a shrinking surface with associated thermal buoyancy, thermal radiation, and heating absorption effects, as well as viscous dissipation have been investigated. The model has been represented in a set of partial differential equations and is transformed using suitable similarity transformations which are then solved by using the finite element method through COMSOL. The results for velocity and temperature profiles are provided for various values of the shrinking parameter, Biot’s number, heat generation/absorption parameter, thermal Grashof number, nanoparticle volume fraction, permeability parameter, magnetic parameter and radiation parameter.

In this paper, a numerical study is presented for the 3D mathematical model of bioconvective boundary layer flow having nanoparticles and motile microorganisms on a curved sheet under isothermal conditions. Using an appropriate choice of similarity transformations, the problem reduces to coupled ordinary nonlinear equations, and this system is then treated with bvp4c (a MATLAB-based solver) to get the desired solution with good accuracy. The repercussion of distinct important dimensionless numbers such as thermophoresis, buoyancy ratio, Lewis number, and Brownian number on the velocity, temperature, and volume fraction of nanoparticles is presented graphically and is discussed in context with their importance on flow dynamics. Moreover, the physical impact of various parameters on motile microorganism density, the local Sherwood number, the local Nusselt number, and the local skin friction coefficients is analyzed and presented in tables. Qualitative analysis also reveals that the Brownian motion parameter, Peclet number, and Schmidt number have an inverse impact on the density microorganisms.

This paper focuses on advances in the understanding of both the fundamental and applied aspects of nanomaterials. Nanoparticles (titania and graphene oxide) in water-based fluid lying on a surface incorporating the leading edge accretion (or ablation) are analyzed. Entropy generation rate is also considered. The Hall current effect is induced in the flow of hybrid nanofluid, due to which the two-dimensional study converts into three-dimensional space. Similarity transformations convert the equations of momentum, heat transfer, nanoparticles volume fraction and boundary conditions into non-dimensional form. Mathematica software is used to obtain the computation through homotopy analysis method. Analysis is provided through the effects of different parameters on different profiles by sketching the graphs. Flow, heat transfer and nanoparticles concentration in TiO2/H2O, as well as GO-TiO2/H2O, are decreased with increasing the Stefan blowing effect, while entropy generation rate elevates upon increasing each parameter. Both of the velocity components are reduced with increasing the Hall parameter. Streamlines demonstrate that trapping is increased at the left side of the surface. The obtained results are compared with the published work which show the authentication of the present work.

Here, we discuss three-dimensional dusty nanofluid thin film flow with nonlinear thermal radiation, where carbon nanotubes flow past an inclined rotating disk with a constant angular velocity of Ω. This novel mathematical model is unique and is discussed here for the first time. Downward draining flow and lateral flow arise due to inclination. The demonstrated geometry is characterized in terms of time-independent continuity, momentum, and energy balance. Similarity transformations convert the partial differential equation into a system of ordinary differential equations. The obtained equations are analyzed numerically using the bvp4c MATLAB function. The thermal field of the dust phase was smaller than that of the nanofluid phase, and this difference was exacerbated by increasing the thermal radiation. To validate the model presented here, it is compared to a previous model; the models showed high concordance.

Abstract Present analysis is to study the combined effects of viscous dissipation and Joule heating on MHD three-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous incompressible non-linear radiating Casson nanofluid past a nonlinear stretching porous sheet. Present model describes that flow generated by bi-directional non-linear stretching sheet with thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations by similarity transformations and then solved by employing shooting method. The effects of the flow parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration as well as the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number near the wall are computed for various values of the fluid properties. This study reveals that the temperature of Casson nanofluid increases with combination of viscous dissipation and Joule heating. Increasing thermophoresis parameter increases the species concentration of the nanoflow. The comparison of present results have been made with the published work and the results are found to be very good agreement.

The wide range of industrial applications of flow across moving or static solid surfaces has aroused the curiosity of researchers. In order to generate a more exact estimate of flow and heat transfer properties, three-dimensional modelling must be addressed. This plays a vital role in metalworking operations, producing plastic and rubber films, and the continuous cooling of fibre. In view of the above scope, an incompressible, laminar three-dimensional flow of a Casson nanoliquid in the occurrence of thermophoretic particle deposition over a non-linearly extending sheet is examined. To convert the collection of partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, the governing equations are framed with sufficient assumptions, and appropriate similarity transformations are employed. The reduced equations are solved by implementing Runge Kutta Fehlberg 4th 5th order technique with the aid of a shooting scheme. The numerical results are obtained for linear and non-linear cases, and graphs are drawn for various dimensionless constraints. The present study shows that improvement in the Casson parameter values will diminish the axial velocities, but improvement is seen in thermal distribution. The escalation in the thermophoretic parameter will decline the concentration profiles. The rate of mass transfer, surface drag force will reduce with the improved values of the power law index. The non-linear stretching case shows greater impact in all of the profiles compared to the linear stretching case.

This work examines the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) three-dimensional (3D) flow comprising Cu and Al2O3 water-based nanofluids. The effects of heat and mass transfer with the effects of nanoparticles are carried out in the existence of thermal radiation and convective heat and mass transfer boundary conditions. By applying the proper similarity transformations the partial differential equations describing velocity, temperature and nanoparticle volume fraction (NVF) are transformed to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (NODE). An optimal homotopy analysis technique is applied to evaluate the analytical solutions. The influences of pertinent parameters on the velocity, temperature and NVF are displayed in graphical and tabular forms. Calculations of Nusselt number, skin friction coefficients and the local Sherwood number are evaluated via tables. An excellent comparison has also been made with the previously-published literature.
