Abstract In this paper, we attempt to analyze the effects of radiation and chemical reactions on laminar boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting unsteady viscoelastic incompressible fluid flow along a vertical semi-infinite plate passing through porous channel. The coupled nonlinear partial differential equations for energy, momentum, and mass diffusions are solved analytically with the use of perturbation technique. Moreover, the analytical expressions for fluid velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions are obtained and interpreted using the software MATLAB. The enhancement of velocity is prominent with the growth of G_r, G_m, N_r and K_r but a reverse pattern is More >

Abstract The current study explores heat and mass transfer analysis of unstable MHD boundary layer flow of electrically conducting Casson fluid near an infinite Perpendicular porous plate, moving with variable velocity. Mass diffusion equation was described by the homogenous first order chemical reaction. The equations controlling the flow converted into dimensionless form and solved by applying Laplace transform method and the expressions for velocity, temperature and concentration of the flow are acquired in exact form. To understand the physical insight of the problem a detailed study of involved parameters of the flow was done and explained 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 More >

Abstract The numerous applications of Maxwell Nanofluid Stagnation Point Flow, such as those in production industries, the processing of polymers, compression, power generation, lubrication systems, food manufacturing and air conditioning, among other applications, require further research into the effects of various parameters on flow phenomena. In this paper, a study has been carried out for the heat and mass transfer of Maxwell nanofluid flow over the heated stretching sheet. A mathematical model with constitutive expressions is constructed in partial differential equations (PDEs) through obligatory basic conservation laws. A series of transformations are then used to take… More >

Abstract In this study, structural theory was used to examine the geometric configuration of channels embedded inside an object in the presence of internal heat generation for cooling by a heat transfer mechanism. The growth and development of gas transmission lines and the lack of up-to-date integrated information systems have made the design and maintenance of pipelines, as well as the handling of problems caused by various accidents in the pipeline, very complex in many cases. Using accurate descriptive and spatial information in tolls on gas transmission line maps such as pipes, booster stations, valves, and… More >

Abstract

A depth understanding of fluid flow past a curved duct having rectangular cross-section with different aspect ratios (l) are essential for various engineering applications such as in chemical, mechanical, bio-mechanical and bio-medical engineering. So highly ambitious researchers have given significant attention to study new characteristics of fluid flow in a curved duct. The flow characterization in the rectangular duct has been studied over a wide range of numerical and selective experimental studies. However, proper knowledge with the effects of Coriolis force for different aspect ratios is important for better understanding of the transitional behaviour and

Abstract For heat transfer enhancement in heat exchangers, different types of channels are often tested. The performance of heat exchangers can be made better by considering geometry composed of sinusoidally curved walls.
