Heterogeneous Reactions

The influence of second-order velocity slip on the MHD flow of nanofluid in a porous medium under the effects of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions has been analyzed. The governing flow equation is exactly solved and compared with those in the literature for the skin friction coefficient in the absence of the second slip, where great differences have been observed. In addition, the effects of the permanent parameters on the skin friction coefficient, the velocity, and the concentration have been discussed in the presence of the second slip. As an important result, the behavior of the skin friction coefficient at various values of the porosity and volume fraction is changed from increasing (in the absence of the second slip) to decreasing (in the presence of the second slip), which confirms the importance of the second slip in modeling the boundary layer flow of nanofluids. In addition, five kinds of nanofluids have been investigated for the velocity profiles and it is found that the Ag-water nanofluid is the lowest. For only the heterogeneous reaction, the concentration equation has been exactly solved, while the numerical solution is applied in the general case. Accordingly, a reduction in the concentration occurs with the strengthening of the heterogenous reaction and also with the increase in the Schmidt parameter. Moreover, the Ag-water nanofluid is of lower concentration than the Cu-water nanofluid. This is also true for the general case, when both of the homogenous and heterogenous reactions take place.

In the present work, the Jeffery–Hamel flow problem has been studied using both first- and second-order velocity-slip models, and then compared with the no-slip model. The objectives are to observe the behavior of the flow predicted by the two slip models and to establish criteria for using the two velocity-slip models. The study concentrates on examining the effect of the change in the Knudsen number (Kn) on the velocity profiles, magnitude of slip at the wall, and skin friction coefficient. Assuming that a difference between the two slip models of the order of 10% or less justifies the use of the simple first-order model, the transitional Kn numbers have been found. These Kn numbers depend on the flow direction, being either inflow or outflow. Also, there are three distinct regions that specify where to use each of the no-slip, first-order, and second-order slip models. Further, the reversal of the flow has been investigated as a function of the Kn number and for different Re⋅α, where Re is Reynolds number and α is the wall angle. Using the second-order slip models, it is found that as the Kn number increases, reversal occurs at Re⋅α smaller than the 10.31 value at which flow reversal happens in the no-slip model, and increasing the Kn number leads to a reduction in the skin friction coefficient in all cases except when reversal occurs.

This paper presents the study of unsteady nanofluids flow and heat transfer past a wedge with second order velocity slip and temperature jump. The model is modified by considering the existence of a nanolayer together with the effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion. The fundamental equations were transformed into ordinary differential equations by a new set of similarity transformations and solved by using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). We determined that the error reached 10-6 and the effectiveness of HAM was attained. The influence of second-order slip on the fluid skin-friction coefficient was analyzed and we determined that the Nusselt number decreases and skin friction coefficient rises with an increase in the thickness of the nanolayer.

The dynamic properties of nanofluids have made them an area of intense research during the past few decades. In this article, flow of nonaligned stagnation point nanofluid is investigated. Copper–water based nanofluid in the presence of temperature-dependent viscosity is taken into account. The governing nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations transformed by partial differential equations are solved numerically by using fourth-order Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg integration technique. Effects of variable viscosity parameter on velocity and temperature profiles of pure fluid and copper–water nanofluid are analyzed, discussed, and presented graphically. Streamlines, skin friction coefficients, and local heat flux of nanofluid under the impact of variable viscosity parameter, stretching ratio, and solid volume fraction of nanoparticles are also displayed and discussed. It is observed that an increase in solid volume fraction of nanoparticles enhances the magnitude of normal skin friction coefficient, tangential skin friction coefficient, and local heat flux. Viscosity parameter is found to have decreasing effect on normal and tangential skin friction coefficients whereas it has a positive influence on local heat flux.

AbstractIn this paper, the stagnation-point flow and heat transfer towards a shrinking sheet in a nanofluid is considered. The nonlinear system of coupled partial differential equations was transformed and reduced to a nonlinear system of coupled ordinary differential equations, which was solved numerically using the shooting method. Numerical results were obtained for the skin friction coefficient, the local Nusselt number as well as the velocity and temperature profiles for some values of the governing parameters, namely the nanoparticle volume fraction φ, the shrinking parameter λand the Prandtl number Pr. Three different types of nanoparticles are considered, namely Cu, Al2O3 and TiO2. It was found that nanoparticles of low thermal conductivity, TiO2, have better enhancement on heat transfer compared to nanoparticles Al2O3 and Cu. For a particular nanoparticle, increasing the volume fraction φ results in an increase of the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer rate at the surface. It is also found that solutions do not exist for larger shrinking rates and dual solutions exist when λ < −1.0.

Current investigation scrutinizes the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) natural convection flow of micropolar ferrofluid across an isoflux sphere with the impacts of thermal radiation and partial slip. Cobalt-nanoparticles with kerosene as the base fluid are considered. The governing partial differential conservation equations and convenient boundary conditions are rendered into a nondimensional form. The finite difference method (FDM) is then applied to determine the solution of a collection of resultant equations. The outcomes obtained by FDM have also compared with cited investigation. Illustrations describing influences of prominent parameters which provides physical interpretations of velocity, angular velocity, and temperature fields as well as the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number are examined in detail with the help of graphical representations. This investigation determined that the skin-friction coefficient and heat transport rate reduced along with augmentation in the magnetic force and micropolar parameter, while opposite performance is adhered with elevating in the thermal radiation. Moreover, the boosted nanoparticle volume fraction reduced the skin friction coefficient and improved the Nusselt number.

The Impact

This research aims at providing the theoretical effects of the unsteady MHD stagnation point flow of heat and mass transfer across a stretching and shrinking surface in a porous medium including internal heat generation/absorption, thermal radiation, and chemical reaction. The fundamental principles of the similarity transformations are applied to the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) that lead to ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The transformed ODEs are numerically solved by the shooting algorithm implemented in MATLAB, and verification is done from MATLAB built-in solver bvp4c. The numerical data produced for the skin friction coefficient, the local Nusselt number, and the local Sherwood number are compared with the available result and found to be in a close agreement. The impact of involved physical parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration, and density of motile microorganisms profiles is scrutinized through graphs. It is analyzed that the skin friction coefficient enhances with increasing values of an unsteady parameter A , magnetic parameter M , and porosity parameter Kp . In addition, we observe that the density of a motile microorganisms profile enhances larger values of the bioconvection Lewis number Lb and Peclet number Pe and decreases with the increasing values of an unsteady parameter A .

Flow And Heat Transfer

An investigation toward the existence of a complete similarity solution for boundary layer flows under the velocity slip and temperature jump conditions is carried out. The study is limited to the boundary layer flows resulting from an arbitrary freestream velocity U(x)=Uoxm and wall temperature given by Tw−T∞=Cxn. It is found that a similar solution exists only for m=1 and n=0, which represents stagnation flow on isothermal surface. This case has been thoroughly investigated. The analysis showed that three parameters control the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the problem. These parameters are the velocity slip parameter K1, the temperature jump parameter K2, and Prandtl number. The effect of these parameters on the flow and heat transfer of the problem has been studied and presented. It is found that the slip velocity parameter affects both the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the problem. It is found that the skin friction coefficient decreases with increasing K1 and most of changes in the skin friction takes place in the range 0<K1<1. The skin friction coefficient is found to be related to K1 and Rex according to the relation: Cf=3.38Rex−0.5(K1+1.279)−0.8 for 0<K1<5 with an error of ±4%. On the other hand, the correlation between Nu, K1, K2, and Pr has been found by the equation Nu=[(0.449+1.142K11.06)∕(0.515+K11.06)](K2+1.489Pr−0.44)−1, for 0<K1, K2<5, 0.7≤Pr≤5 within a maximum error of ±3%.

This article deals with a second-order slip flow and magnetic field on boundary layer flow of micropolar fluid past a stretching sheet. Situation of nil normal flux of nanoparticles at the wall for the stretching flow is taken into account. By employing appropriate similarity transformation and non-dimensional variables, the governing non-linear boundary-value problems were reduced into coupled higher order non-linear ordinary differential equation. Then, numerical solution for velocity, angular velocity (microrotation), temperature, and concentration has been established. The equations were numerically solved using the function bvp4c from the matlab software for different values of governing parameters. Numerical results have been obtained and discussed for non-dimensional velocity, temperature, microrotation, the skin friction coefficient, and local Nusselt number using some fixed values of the governing parameters. The results indicate that the skin friction coefficient Cf increases as the values of slip parameter γ increase. However, the local Nusselt number − [Formula: see text] increases as thermophoresis parameter Nt, microrotation parameter β, and convective parameter Bi increase. The wall couple stress coefficient decreases as the values of governing parameters such as magnetic parameter M, material parameter β, and for both slip parameters γ and δ increase. A comparison with earlier investigations available in the literature has been done and an excellent agreement is achieved.

An unsteady squeezing flow of Casson fluid having magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect and passing through porous medium channel is modeled and investigated. Similarity transformations are used to convert the partial differential equations (PDEs) of non-Newtonian fluid to a highly nonlinear fourth-order ordinary differential equation (ODE). The obtained boundary value problem is solved analytically by Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and numerically by explicit Runge-Kutta method of order 4. For validity purpose, we compare the analytical and numerical results which show excellent agreement. Furthermore, comprehensive graphical analysis has been made to investigate the effects of various fluid parameters on the velocity profile. Analysis shows that positive and negative squeeze numberSqhave opposite effect on the velocity profile. It is also observed that Casson parameterβshows opposite effect on the velocity profile in case of positive and negative squeeze numberSq. MHD parameterMgand permeability constantMphave similar effects on the velocity profile in case of positive and negative squeeze numbers. It is also seen that, in case of positive squeeze number, similar velocity profiles have been obtained forβ,Mg, andMp. Besides this, analysis of skin friction coefficient has also been presented. It is observed that squeeze number, MHD parameter, and permeability parameter have direct relationship while Casson parameter has inverse relationship with skin friction coefficient.

Recently, the topic of convection of heat transfer has created an interest among researchers because of its numerous applications in the daily life. The objective of this paper was to study theoretically the problem of mixed convection boundary layer flow and heat transfer of single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) in presence of hydromagnetic effects. The problem was initiated by formulating a mathematical model in partial differential equation (PDE) for the hybrid nanofluid flow with appropriate boundary conditions. The similarity equation was used to transform the PDE into an ordinary differential equation (ODE) and solved using bvp4c in MATLAB. The graphical results on variation of skin friction coefficient, , local Nusselt number, , shear stress, and local heat flux, with the effects of magnetic, size of needle, c, mixed convection parameter, and volume fraction of nanoparticles, were presented and discussed in detail. The study revealed that duality of solutions appears when the buoyance force is in opposing flow of the fluid motion, The presence of M in hybrid nanofluid reduced the skin friction coefficient and heat transfer. On the other hand, the and increased as different concentrations of and c were added. It gives an insight into the medical field, especially in treating cancer cells. By means, it reveals that CNTs hybrid nanofluid shows high potential in reaching the site of tumors faster compared with nanofluid. A stability analysis has to be carried out. It is noticed that the first solution was stable and physically realizable.
