In the present analysis, we extended Blasius and Sakiadis problems in Carreau fluids by considering a uniform free stream parallel to a fixed or moving flat plate, which has more practical significance. The effects of radiation and convective boundary condition are also taken into account. The resulting nonlinear momentum and energy equations are simplified using similarity transformations. Numerical solutions have been obtained for the velocity and temperature profiles by employing shooting method coupled with Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg integration scheme. Graphical results for the velocity and temperature fields are sketched and discussed. It is found that temperature of the Blasius problem is always higher than the Sakiadis problem.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to discuss the 3D micropolar hybrid (Ag-CuO/H2O) nanofluid past rapid moving surface, where porous medium has been considered.Design/methodology/approachThe model of problem was represented by highly partial differential equations which were deduced by using suitable approximations (boundary layer). Then, the governing model was converted into five combined ordinary differential equations applying proper similarity transformations. Therefore, the eminent iterative Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method (RKF45) has been applied to solve the resulting equations.FindingsHigher values of vortex viscosity, spin gradient viscosity and micro-inertia density parameters are reduced in horizontal direction, whereas opposite behaviour is noticed for vertical direction.Originality/valueThe work has not been done in the area of hybrid micropolar nanofluid. Hence, this article culminates to probe how to improve the thermal conduction and fluid flow in 3D boundary layer flow of micropolar mixture of nanoparticles driven by rapidly moving plate with convective boundary condition.

An analysis is made to study the effects of radiation, dissipation, Thermo-diffuso and Diffuso- thermo on MHD 3D Maxwell flow past a stretching permeable sheet with resistive heating. Transforming the governing dimensional boundary layer equations using three dimensional similarity transformations and then the resultant equations are numerically solved by employing Shooting method.  The effect of the pertinent parameters on various flow distributions is elaborately discussed with the help of graphs and tables. The comparison of present results with the existing literature gave an excellent agreement for the reduced cases.

AbstractIn this study, a mathematical model is developed to scrutinize the transient magnetic flow of Cross nanoliquid past a stretching sheet with thermal radiation effects. Binary chemical reactions and heat source/sink effects along with convective boundary condition are also taken into the consideration. Appropriate similarity transformations are utilized to transform partial differential equations (PDE’s) into ordinary ones and then numerically tackled by shooting method. The impacts of different emerging parameters on the thermal, concentration, velocity, and micro-rotation profiles are incorporated and discussed in detail by means of graphs. Results reveal that, the escalation in magnetic parameter and Rayleigh number slowdowns the velocity and momentum of the fluid. The increase in Biot number, radiation and heat sink/source parameters upsurges the thermal boundary but, converse trend is seen for escalating Prandtl number. The density number of motile microorganisms acts as a growing function of bioconvection Lewis number and declining function of bioconvection Peclet number.

The gravity-driven film flow has been analyzed along a vertical wall subjected to a convective boundary condition. The Boussinesq approximation is applied to simplify the buoyancy term, and similarity transformations are used on the mathematical model of the problem under consideration, to obtain a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. Then the reduced equations are solved explicitly by using homotopy analysis method (HAM). The resulting solutions are investigated for heat transfer effects on velocity and temperature profiles.

This work focused on slip flow over a non-Newtonian nanofluid fluid flow past a stretching sheet with particles–liquid suspension. The convective boundary condition is taken into account. Similarity transformations are utilized to reduce the nonlinear partial differential equations into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg scheme is used to get the numerical solution. Important parameters are analyzed through graphs and skin friction coefficient. Nusselt numbers are presented in tables. Investigation reveals that slip parameter decreases the velocity field and Biot number increases the temperature field.

AbstractTwo-dimensional flow of Jeffrey fluid by an inclined stretching cylinder with convective boundary condition is studied. In addition the combined effects of thermal radiation and viscous dissipation are taken into consideration. The developed nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced into the ordinary differential equations by suitable transformations. The governing equations are solved for the series solutions. The convergence of the series solutions for velocity and temperature fields is carefully analyzed. The effects of various physical parameters such as ratio of relaxation to retardation times, Deborah number, radiation parameter, Biot number, curvature parameter, local Grashof number, Prandtl number, Eckert number and angle of inclination are examined through graphical and numerical results of the velocity and temperature distributions.

AbstractIn this article, we investigate the effects of Arrhenius activation energy with binary chemical reaction and convective boundary condition on natural convective flow over vertical frustum of a cone in a Buongiorno nanofluid under the presence of thermal radiation. The zero nanoparticle flux condition is used at the surface of frustum of a cone rather than the uniform wall condition to execute physically applicable results. For this complex flow model, a suitable non-similarity transformations are used initially and then Bivariate pseudo-spectral local linearisation method is used to solve the non-similar, coupled partial differential equations. Further, the convergence test and error analysis are conducted to verify the accuracy of numerical method. The effects of flow influenced parameters on the non-dimensional velocity, temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction and regular concentration profiles as well as on the skin friction, heat transfer rate, nanoparticle and regular mass transfer rates are analyzed.

Abstract This article analyses the influence of viscous dissipation and thermoporesis effects on the viscous fluid flow over a porous sheet stretching exponentially by applying convective boundary condition. The numerical solutions to the governing equations are evaluated using a local similarity and non-similarity approach along with a successive linearisation procedure and Chebyshev collocation method. The influence of the pertinent parameters on the physical quantities are displayed through graphs.

The paper uses a modern computing tool, Maple, to study some contemporary problems in laminar boundary layer flow over a flat plate. The purpose is to demonstrate that Maple is a powerful computational tool for solving realistic contemporary problems in laminar boundary layer theory. The specific problems (all pertaining to a flat plate) chosen for this study are (1) hydrodynamic boundary layer with slip flow condition, (2) velocity boundary layer on a moving plate, (3) hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers with a linear shear flow. Each problem is of contemporary interest and allows a similarity analysis which reduces the continuity, momentum, and energy equations into ordinary nonlinear differential equations. Numerical solutions of these equations are generated and physical interpretations of the results provided. Maple worksheets for solving each problem are available from the author upon request. It is shown that the effort required to solve these problems with Maple is modest, consisting of few lines of easily learned commands. The use of Maple facilitates and enriches the study of laminar boundary flows in general.
