Abstract A computational analysis of magnetized hybrid Darcy-Forchheimer nanofluid flow across a flat surface is presented in this work. For the study of heat and mass transfer aspects viscous dissipation, activation energy, Joule heating, thermal radiation, and heat generation effects are considered. The suspension of nanoparticles singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are created by hybrid nanofluids. However, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) produce nanofluids, with water acting as conventional fluid, respectively. Nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) that describe the ultimate flow are converted to nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using appropriate similarity transformation. The ODEs are dealt with… More >

Abstract The upfront intension of this study is to explore the advances in electrically conducting Casson fluid induced due to a porous elongated surface taking Arrhenius activation energy, viscous dissipation and joule heating into account. Uniform magnetic and electric fields are imposed on the given flow. Variables of similarity are induced to transmute partial differential equations into dimensionless equations and resolved numerically by elegant method bvp4c. To scrutinize the behavior of critical parameters on flow configurations graphs and table are portrayed. From graphical moments, it is analyzed that velocity of the liquid diminish for advanced values of non-Newtonian rheology parameter, magnetic… More >

Abstract This study determined the most appropriate thin layer drying model, the effective moisture diffusivity and the activation energy of moisture within Ganoderma lucidum in radio frequency (RF) assisted heat pump drying method. The thin layer drying experiments were conducted with input drying parameters such as: drying temperature of 40, 45 and 50°C and RF power of 0.65, 1.3 and 1.95 kW. In order to select a suitable form of drying curve, seven different thin layer drying models (Lewis, Page, Modified Page, Henderson and Pabis, Verma, Midilli, and Wang and Singh) were fitted to the experimental data. The Verma model was… More >

Abstract The main emphasis of this study is to examine the entropy generation of the spatial-temporal state of Bingham visco-plastic nanofluid flow between parallel plates are solved numerically using adequate similarity solutions. Python with BVP solver is used to interpret the results of the adopted model. Heat and mass transfer rate with respect to yield stress was investigated. The results report that the entopy generation of nanofluids exploring single and multiwalled carbon nanotubes dims with the increasing local thermal Peclet number nearer the lower and upper plates. Researchers have established that entropy generation can be reduced by increasing Fourier’s number (Fe)… More >

Abstract The buoyancy driven flow of a second-grade nanofluid in the presence of a binary chemical reaction is analyzed in the context of a model based on the balance equations for mass, species concentration, momentum and energy. The elastic properties of the considered fluid are taken into account. The two-dimensional slip flow of such non-Newtonian fluid over a porous flat material which is stretched vertically upwards is considered. The role played by the activation energy is accounted for through an exponent form modified Arrhenius function added to the Buongiorno model for the nanofluid concentration. The effects of thermal radiation are also… More >
