In this paper, a boundary layer analysis is presented for the slip flow of three types of incompressible viscous nanofluids past a permeable wedge in the presence of a magnetic field. Due to the appearance of a slip boundary condition at the surface, local similarity solution of the reduced nonlinear ordinary differential equation is obtained by the HAM coupled with minimizing the square residual error. The effects of pertinent parameters, such as the magnetic parameter, the solid volume fraction of nanoparticles, the slip parameter and the type of nanofluid on the flow, are analyzed and studied in details. It is found that Ag-water has the highest skin friction coefficient at the surface compared with the others.

Present study numerically investigates a two dimensional steady laminar boundary layer nanofluid flow of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) immersed into kerosene oil, due to a linearly stretched sheet. Flow is subjected to the slip boundary condition and suction/injection effects. Employing suitable similarity transformations, governing PDEs of the arising problem are converted into coupled nonlinear non-dimensional ordinary differential equations. A set of obtained ODEs with assisting boundary conditions is solved numerically by applying finite element method (FEM). Effect of pertinent factors, velocity slip parameter, suction/injection parameter and solid volume fraction parameter on non-dimensional velocity and temperature profiles are characterized graphically. In addition, physical emerging parameters, local Nusselt’s number and local skin friction coefficient are computed and presented via table. Furthermore, derived numerical values of shear stress and heat flux at the surface are compared with previously published results.

We examine the effect of magnetic field on boundary layer flow of an incompressible electrically conducting water-based nanofluids past a convectively heated vertical porous plate with Navier slip boundary condition. A suitable similarity transformation is employed to reduce the governing partial differential equations into nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically by employing fourth-order Runge-Kutta with a shooting technique. Three different water-based nanofluids containing copper (Cu), aluminium oxide (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are taken into consideration. Graphical results are presented and discussed quantitatively with respect to the influence of pertinent parameters, such as solid volume fraction of nanoparticles (φ), magnetic field parameter (Ha), buoyancy effect (Gr), Eckert number (Ec), suction/injection parameter (fw), Biot number (Bi), and slip parameter (β), on the dimensionless velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient, and heat transfer rate.

Abstract Steady forced convection of non-Newtonian nanofluids around a confined semi-circular cylinder subjected to a uniform magnetic field is carried out using ANSYS FLUENT. The numerical solution is obtained using the finite volume method. The user-defined scalar (UDS) is used for the first time to calculate the second order velocity slip boundary condition in semi-circular curved surface and the calculated results are compared with those of the first order velocity slip boundary condition. Besides, the effects of volume fraction, size, type of nanoparticles and magnetic field strength on heat transfer are studied. The present study displays that adding nanoparticles in non-Newtonian fluids significantly enhances heat transfer. In addition, it is observed that the heat transfer rate decreases first and then increases with the increase of Hartmann number. The effects of blocking rate on Nusselt number, wake length and heat transfer effect are shown in the form of graphs or tables.

Abstract A numerical investigation on the effects of uniform and non-uniform heating of bottom wall on mixed convective heat transfer in a square porous chamber filled with nanofluid in the appearance of magnetic field is carried out. Uniform or sinusoidal heat source is fixed at the bottom wall. The top wall moves in either positive or negative direction with a constant cold temperature. The vertical sidewalls are thermally insulated. The finite volume approach based on SIMPLE algorithm is followed for solving the governing equations. The different parameters connected with this study are Richardson number (0.01 ≤ Ri ≤ 100), Darcy number (10−4 ≤ Da ≤ 10−1), Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤ 70), and the solid volume fraction (0.00 ≤ χ ≤ 0.06). The results are presented graphically in the form of isotherms, streamlines, mid-plane velocities, and Nusselt numbers for the various combinations of the considered parameters. It is observed that the overall heat transfer rate is low at Ri = 100 in the positive direction of lid movement, whereas it is low at Ri = 1 in the negative direction. The average Nusselt number is lowered on growing Hartmann number for all considered moving directions of top wall with non-uniform heating. The low permeability, Da = 10−4 keeps the flow pattern same dominating the magnetic field, whereas magnetic field strongly affects the flow pattern dominating the high Darcy number Da = 10−1. The heat transfer rate increases on enhancing the solid volume fraction regardless of the magnetic field.

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.

Laminar magnetohydrodynamic Marangoni-forced convection boundary layer flow of a water-based biopolymer nanofluid containing nanoparticles from a non-isothermal plate is studied. Magnetic induction effects are incorporated. A variety of nanoparticles are studied, specifically, silver, copper, aluminium oxide and titanium oxide. The Tiwari–Das model is utilized for simulating nanofluid effects. The normalized ordinary differential boundary layer equations (mass, magnetic field continuity, momentum, induced magnetic field and energy conservation) are solved subject to appropriate boundary conditions using Maple shooting quadrature. The influence of Prandtl number (Pr), magnetohydrodynamic body force parameter (β), reciprocal of magnetic Prandtl number (α) and nanofluid solid volume fraction (φ) on velocity, temperature and magnetic stream function distributions is investigated in the presence of strong Marangoni effects (ξ i.e., Marangoni parameter is set as unity). Magnetic stream function is accentuated with body force parameter. The flow is considerably decelerated as is magnetic stream function gradient, with increasing nanofluid solid volume fraction, whereas temperatures are significantly enhanced. Interesting features in the flow regime are explored. The study finds applications in the fabrication of complex biomedical nanofluids, biopolymers, etc.

This study forms part of a program to develop a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) scale turbomachinery based vacuum pump and investigates the roughing portion of such a system. Such a machine would have many radial stages with the exhaust stages operating near atmospheric conditions while the inlet stages operate at near vacuum conditions. In low vacuum such as those to the inlet of a roughing pump, the flow can still be treated as a continuum; however, the no-slip boundary condition is not accurate. The Knudsen number becomes a dominant nondimensional parameter in these machines due to their small size and low pressures. As the Knudsen number increases, slip-flow becomes present at the walls. The study begins with a basic overview on implementing the slip wall boundary condition in a commercial code by specifying the wall shear stress based on the mean-free-path of the gas molecules. This is validated against an available micro-Poiseuille classical solution at Knudsen numbers between 0.001 and 0.1 with reasonable agreement found. The method of specifying the wall shear stress is then applied to a generic MEMS scale roughing pump stage that consists of two stators and a rotor operating at a nominal absolute pressure of 500 Pa. The zero flow case was simulated in all cases as the pump down time for these machines is small due to the small volume being evacuated. Initial transient two-dimensional (2D) simulations are used to evaluate three boundary conditions, classical no-slip, specified-shear, and slip-flow. It is found that the stage pressure rise increased as the flow began to slip at the walls. In addition, it was found that at lower pressures the pure slip boundary condition resulted in very similar predictions to the specified-shear simulations. As the specified-shear simulations are computationally expensive it is reasonable to use slip-flow boundary conditions. This approach was used to perform three-dimensional (3D) simulations of the stage. Again the stage pressure increased when slip-flow was present compared with the classical no-slip boundaries. A characteristic of MEMS scale turbomachinery are the large relative tip gaps requiring 3D simulations. A tip gap sensitivity study was performed and it was found that when no-slip boundaries were present the pressure ratio increased significantly with decreasing tip gap. When slip-flow boundaries were present, this relationship was far weaker.

Compressibility Effects

Gas microflows are encountered in many applications of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS). Computational modeling and simulation can provide an effective predictive capability for heat and momentum transfer in microscales as well as means of evaluating the performance of a new microdevice before hardware fabrication. In this article, we present models and a computational methodology for simulating gas microflows in the slip-flow regime for which the Knudsen number is less than 0.3. The formulation is based on the classical Maxwell/Smoluchowski boundary conditions that allow partial slip at the wall. We first modify a high-order slip boundary condition we developed in previous work so that it can be easily implemented to provide enhanced numerical stability. We also extend a previous formulation for incompressible flows to include compressibility effects which are primarily responsible for the nonlinear pressure distribution in micro-channel flows. The focus of the paper is on the competing effects of compressibility and rarefaction in internal flows in long channels. Several simulation results are presented and comparisons are provided with available experimental data. A specific set of benchmark experiments is proposed to systematically study compressibility, rarefaction and viscous heating in microscales in order to provide validation to the numerical models and the slip-flow theory in general as well as to establish absolute standards in this relatively young field of fluid mechanics.

Flow And Heat Transfer

Investigation of fluid flow and heat transfer in rotating microchannels is important for centrifugal microfluidics, which has emerged as an advanced technique in biomedical applications and chemical separations. The pseudo forces namely the centrifugal force and the Coriolis force arising as a consequence of the rotating reference frame change the flow pattern significantly from the parabolic profile in a non-rotating channel. The convective heat transfer process is also influenced by the secondary flow introduced by the rotational effect. Moreover, if the microchannel wall is hydrophobic, slip flow can occur inside the channel when the conventional no slip boundary condition is no longer valid. In this work, we have numerically investigated the flow and heat transfer inside a straight rotating rectangular microchannel in the slip flow regime. A pressure based finite volume technique in a staggered grid was applied to solve the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes and energy equations. It has been observed that, depending on the rotational velocity, different slip velocities are induced at the channel walls. The average fluid temperature increases with the increase of rotation as convective heat transfer mechanism is increased due to the secondary flow. However, the slip boundary condition has a negligible effect on the temperature profiles.

The effects of compressibility and rarefaction for gas flow in microchannels have been extensively studied separately. However, these two effects are always combined for gas flow in microchannels. In this paper, the two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved for gas flow in parallel plate channels with a slip boundary condition to study the combined effects of compressibility and rarefaction on the friction factor. The numerical methodology is based on the control volume finite difference scheme. It is found that the effect of compressibility increases the velocity gradient near the wall which then increases the friction factor. On the other hand, increasing the velocity gradient near the wall leads to a much larger slip velocity and implies a stronger rarefaction effect and a corresponding decrease in the friction factor. These two opposite effects make the effect of compressibility on friction factor for slip flow weaker than that for no-slip compressible flow. A correlation among fRe, Kn and Ma is presented. The correlation is validated with available experimental and analytical results.
