The main aim of this investigation is to study thermo diffusion, heat source/sink, Joule and chemical effects on heat transfer in MHD mixed convection flow and mass transfer past an infinite vertical plate with ohmic heating and viscous dissipation have been studied. We consider the mixed convection flow of an incompressible and electrically conducting viscous fluid such that x* -axis is taken along the plate in upward direction and y* -axis is normal to it. A transverse constant magnetic field is applied i.e., in the direction of y*-axis. Approximate solutions have been derived for velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin friction, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer using perturbation technique. The obtained results are discussed with the help of graphs to observe the effect of various parameters like Grashof number (Gr), the modified Grashof number (Gm), magnetic parameter (M), Permeability parameter(K), Prandtl number (Pr), Heat Sink(Q), Radiation Parameter (F), Soret parameter (S0), Eckert number (E),Schmidt number(Sc) and Chemical reaction parameter(K0) taking two cases viz. Fluid velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are comparison with Pr=0.71(Air) and Pr =7 (Water) various parameters in cooled and heated plates. Case I: when Gr > 0 (flow on cooled plate), and Case II: Gr < 0, (flow on heated plate). Both the fluid velocity and concentration rising with the increment values of Soret parameter in the fluids Air and Water and also discussed skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number in the fluid’s mercury, electrolytic solution, air and water. The novelty of this study is the consideration of simultaneous occurrence of radiation, heat absorption as well as thermo- diffusion in the magnetic field. It varies in several aspects such as non-dimensional parameters, analytical solutions, and graphical solutions, the analytic solution using the Perturbation technique, and numerical solution using Matlab software for the profile.

The main aim of the present work is to highlight the significances of periodic mixed convection flow and heat transfer characteristics along the surface of magnetized cone by exerting magnetic field exact at the surface of the cone. The numerical simulations of coupled non-dimensional equations are computed in terms of velocity field, temperature and magnetic field concentration and then used to examine the periodic components of skin friction, ?w, heat transfer, qw, and current density, jw, for various governing parameters. A nice periodic behavior of heat transfer qw is concluded for each value of mixed convection parameter, ?, but maximum periodicity is sketched at ? = 50. It is also computed that the lower value of magnetic Prandtl number ? = 0.1 gets poor amplitude in current density but highest amplitude is sketched for higher ? = 0.5. The behavior of heat and fluid-flow in the pres?ence of aligned magnetic field is associated with the phase angle and amplitude of oscillation. It is also noted that due to the increase in magnetic force parameter, ?, there are wave like disturbances generate within the fluid layers. These disturbances are basically hydromagnetic waves which becomes more prominent as the strength of magnetic force parameter is increased.

The present article gives a ray of light on the effects of magnetic field on an unsteady mixed convection flow of nanofluids containing nanoparticles which are spherical and cylindrical in nature. The unsteadiness in the flow is mainly caused by time dependent stretching velocity and temperature of the sheet at the surface. The governing transportation equations are first transformed into ordinary differential equations by using similarity transformations and then solved by employing Runga–Kutta–Frelberg method with shooting technique. The influence of various parameters on velocity and temperature profiles as well as wall shear stress and the rate of mass transfer are discussed through graphs and tables. The results for regular fluid (water) from the study are in excellent agreement with the results reported in the literature.

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.

Thermo diffusion and chemical effects on heat transfer in MHD mixed convection flow and masstransfer past an infinite vertical plate with Ohmic heating and viscous dissipation have beenstudied. Approximate solutions have been derived for velocity, temperature, concentration profiles,skin friction, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer using perturbation technique. Theobtained results are discussed with the help of graphs to observe the effect of various parameterslike Schmidt number (Sc), Prandtl number (Pr), Magnetic parameter (M),Soret number (So) andchemical parameter (K), taking two cases viz. Case I: when Gr > 0 (flow on cooled plate) and CaseII: Gr < 0 (flow on heated plate). Thermal diffusion causes both the fluid velocity and temperature tofall due to the presence of the chemical effect. Velocity and temperature profiles are higher formercury than electrolytic solution. Soret effect increased the concentration of the fluid while chemicaleffect decreased.Keywords: Chemical effect; thermo diffusion; magnetic field; heat-mass transfer.DOI: 10.3329/jname.v6i2.3761

In this paper, a theoretical study is carried out on unsteady three dimensional, laminar, free convective flow of micropolar fluid with Hall effect, Joule heating and heat sink under gravitation modulation. A uniform transverse magnetic field is applied normal to the plate along the fluid region. The magnetic Reynolds number is considered to be small due to incomparability of applied and induced magnetic field, as such the influence of induced magnetic field can be neglected. The multi parameter perturbation technique is used to solve the governed dimensionless equations. The fluid velocity profile, temperature profile and the concentration profiles are discussed with the aid of graphs and tables. The coefficient of skin friction and couple stresses are numerically computed in addition to Nusselt number and Sherwood number. The result reveals that the linear velocity increases due to escalation in gravitation modulation parameter values but for intensification in values of gravitation modulation parameter, a reverse effect is observed for the rotational velocity. A comparative analysis shows that the skin friction coefficient is less in micropolar fluid than the corresponding Newtonian fluids.
