The present research focuses on three-dimensional nonlinear convective flow of viscoelastic nanofluid. Here, the flow is generated due to stretching of a impermeable surface. The phenomenon of heat transport is analyzed by considering thermal radiation and prescribed heat flux condition. Nanofluid model comprises of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. An electrically conducting fluid is accounted due to consideration of an applied magnetic field. The dimensionless variables are introduced for the conversion of partial differential equations into sets of ordinary differential systems. The transformed expressions are explored through homotopic algorithm. Behavior of different dimensionless parameters on the non-dimensional velocities, temperature and concentration are scrutinized graphically. The values of skin friction coefficients, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also calculated and elaborated. It is visualized that the heat transfer rate increases with Prandtl number and radiation parameter is higher.
相似文献This article examines the hydromagnetic three-dimensional flow of viscous nanoliquid. A bidirectional linear stretching surface has been used to create the flow. Novel features regarding Brownian motion and thermophoresis have been studied by employing Buongiorno model to examine the slip velocity of nanoparticle. Viscous liquid is electrically conducting subject to uniform applied magnetic field. Problem formulation in boundary-layer region is performed for low magnetic Reynolds number. Simultaneous effects of constant heat flux and zero nanoparticles flux conditions are utilized at boundary. Appropriate transformations correspond to the strongly nonlinear ordinary differential expressions. The resulting nonlinear systems have been solved through the optimal homotopy analysis method. Graphs have been sketched in order to analyze that how the temperature and concentration profiles are affected by various physical parameters. Further the coefficients of skin-friction and heat transfer rate have been numerically computed and discussed. Our findings show that the temperature distribution has a direct relationship with the magnetic parameter. Moreover, the temperature distribution and thermal boundary-layer thickness are higher for hydromagnetic flow in comparison with the hydrodynamic flow.
相似文献The present analysis examines the combine effects of thermal radiation and velocity slip along a convectively nonlinear stretching surface. Moreover, MHD effects are also considered near the stagnation point flow of Casson nanofluid. Slipped effects are considered with the porous medium to reduce the drag reduction at the surface of the sheet. Main structure of the system is based upon the system of partial differential equations attained in the form of momentum, energy, and concentration equations. To determine the similar solution system of PDEs is rehabilitated into the set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by employing compatible similarity transformation. Important physical parameters are acquired through obtained differential equations. To determine the influence of emerging parameters, resulting set of ODE’s in term of unknown function of velocity, temperature, and concentration are successfully solved via Keller’s box-scheme. All the obtained unknown functions are discussed in detail after plotting the results against each physical parameter. To analyze the behavior at the surface: skin friction, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are also illustrated against the velocity ratio parameter A, Brownian motion Nb, thermophoresis Nt, and thermal radiation parameters R. Results obtained from the set of equations described that skin friction is decreasing function of A, and local Nusselt and Sherwood number demonstrate the significant influenced by Brownian motion Nb, thermophoresis Nt, and radiation parameters R.
相似文献Heat and mass transfer effects in three-dimensional mixed convection flow of viscoelastic fluid over a stretching surface with convective boundary conditions are investigated. The fluid is electrically conducting in the presence of constant applied magnetic field. Conservation laws of energy and concentration are based upon the Soret and Dufour effects. First order chemical reaction effects are also taken into account. By using the similarity transformations, the governing boundary layer equations are reduced into the ordinary differential equations. The transformed boundary layer equations are computed for the series solutions. Dimensionless velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions are shown graphically for different values of involved parameters. Numerical values of local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are computed and analyzed. It is found that the behaviors of viscoelastic, mixed convection, and concentration buoyancy parameters on the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are similar. However, the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers have qualitative opposite effects for Biot number, thermophoretic parameter, and Soret-Dufour parameters.
相似文献This article addresses the effects of homogenous–heterogeneous reactions on electrically conducting boundary layer fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics over a stretching sheet with Newtonian heating are examined. Using similarity transformations, the governing equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The constricted ordinary differential equations are solved computationally by shooting technique. The impact of pertinent physical parameters on the velocity, concentration and temperature profiles is discussed and explored via figures and tables. It is clear from figures that the velocity profile reduces for large values of fluid parameter B and Hartmann number H. Skin friction coefficient decreases for large values of Hartmann number H and fluid parameter B. Also, heat transfer rate monotonically enhances with conjugate parameter of Newtonian heating γ and Prandtl number Pr.
相似文献In this article, we have examined three-dimensional unsteady MHD boundary layer flow of viscous nanofluid having gyrotactic microorganisms through a stretching porous cylinder. Simultaneous effects of nonlinear thermal radiation and chemical reaction are taken into account. Moreover, the effects of velocity slip and thermal slip are also considered. The governing flow problem is modelled by means of similarity transformation variables with their relevant boundary conditions. The obtained reduced highly nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by means of nonlinear shooting technique. The effects of all the governing parameters are discussed for velocity profile, temperature profile, nanoparticle concentration profile and motile microorganisms’ density function presented with the help of tables and graphs. The numerical comparison is also presented with the existing published results as a special case of our study. It is found that velocity of the fluid diminishes for large values of magnetic parameter and porosity parameter. Radiation effects show an increment in the temperature profile, whereas thermal slip parameter shows converse effect. Furthermore, it is also observed that chemical reaction parameter significantly enhances the nanoparticle concentration profile. The present study is also applicable in bio-nano-polymer process and in different industrial process.
相似文献The utilization of nanometre-sized solid particles in working fluids has been seriously recommended due to their enhanced thermal characteristics. This suspension of solid particles in base fluids can significantly enhance the physical properties, such as, viscosity and thermal conductivity. They are widely used in several engineering processes, like, heat exchangers, cooling of electronic equipment, etc. In this exploration, we attempt to deliver a numerical study to simulate the nanofluids flow past a circular cylinder with convective heat transfer in the framework of Buongiorno’s model. A non-Newtonian Williamson rheological model is used to describe the behavior of nanofluid with variable properties (i.e., temperature dependent thermal conductivity). The leading flow equations for nanofluid transport are mathematical modelled with the assistance of Boussinesq approximation. Numerical simulation for the system of leading non-linear differential equations has been performed by employing versatile, extensively validated, Runge–Kutta Fehlberg scheme with Cash–Karp coefficients. Impacts of active physical parameters on fluid velocity, temperature and nanoparticle concentration is studied and displayed graphically. It is worth to mention that the temperature of non-Newtonian nanofluids is significantly enhanced by higher variable thermal conductivity parameter. One major outcome of this study is that the nanoparticle concentration is raised considerably by an increasing values of thermophoresis parameter.
相似文献In this article, the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux model is implemented to study non-Fourier heat and mass transfer in the magnetohydrodynamic flow of an upper-convected Maxwell fluid over a permeable stretching sheet under a transverse constant magnetic field. Thermal radiation and chemical reaction effects are also considered. The nonlinear partial differential conservation equations for mass, momentum, energy and species conservation are transformed with appropriate similarity variables into a system of coupled, highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations with appropriate boundary conditions. Numerical solutions have been presented for the influence of elasticity parameter (α), magnetic parameter (M 2), suction/injection parameter \((\lambda ),\) Prandtl number (Pr), conduction–radiation parameter (R d ), sheet stretching parameter (A), Schmidt number (Sc), chemical reaction parameter \(\left( {\gamma_{c} } \right)\), modified Deborah number with respect to relaxation time of heat flux (i.e., non-Fourier Deborah number) on velocity components, temperature and concentration profiles using the successive Taylor series linearization method (STSLM) utilizing Chebyshev interpolating polynomials and Gauss–Lobatto collocation. The effects of selected parameters on skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also presented with the help of tables. Verification of the STSLM solutions is achieved with existing published results demonstrating close agreement. Further validation of skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number values computed with STSLM is included using Mathematica software shooting quadrature.
相似文献The present article presents the hydromagnetic nanofluid flow past a stretching cylinder embedded in non-Darcian Forchheimer porous media by using Buongiorno’s mathematical model (Buongiorno in J Heat Transf 128:240–250, 2006; Nadeem et al. in J Taiwan Inst Chem Eng 45:121, 2014, Nadeem et al. Appl Nanosci 4:625–631, 2014). Thermal radiation via Roseland’s approximation (Akbar et al. in Chin J Aeronaut 26:1389–1397, 2013; Nadeem and Haq in J Aerosp Eng 28:04014061, 2012), Brownian motion, thermophoresis and Joule heating effects are also considered. To explore thermal characteristics, prescribed heat flux and prescribed mass flux boundary conditions are deployed. Governing flow problem consists of PDEs in the cylindrical form, which are converted into system of nonlinear ODEs by applying applicable similarity transforms. ODEs are tackled by RK–Fehlberg fourth–fifth-order numerical integration scheme with shooting algorithm. Impact of numerous involving physical parameters on flow features like temperature distribution, velocity distribution, Sherwood number, local Nusselt number and skin friction coefficient is shown through graphs and tables.
