Abstract The main focus of this study is to investigate the impact of heat generation/absorption with ramp velocity and ramp temperature on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) time-dependent Maxwell fluid over an unbounded plate embedded in a permeable medium. Non-dimensional parameters along with Laplace transformation and inversion algorithms are used to find the solution of shear stress, energy, and velocity profile. Recently, new fractional differential operators are used to define ramped temperature and ramped velocity. The obtained analytical solutions are plotted for different values of emerging parameters. Fractional time derivatives are used to analyze the impact of fractional parameters… More >

Abstract This paper introduces the effect of heat absorption (generation) and suction (injection) on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary-layer flow of Casson nanofluid (CNF) via a non-linear stretching surface with the viscous dissipation in two dimensions. By utilizing the similarity transformations, the leading PDEs are transformed into a set of ODEs with adequate boundary conditions and then resolved numerically by (4–5)^th-order Runge-Kutta Fehlberg procedure based on the shooting technique. Numerical computations are carried out by Maple 15 software. With the support of graphs, the impact of dimensionless control parameters on the nanoparticle concentration profiles, the temperature, and the flow… More >

Abstract This work presents a succinct review of the thermal behavior of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and its relationship with aging, heat generation, thermal management and thermal failure. This work focuses on the temperature effects that promote the main aging mechanisms in the anode and compare these effects among different cell chemistries for calendar and cycling aging modes. We review the strategies to mitigate aging, including the design of the battery thermal management system (BTMS), best practices of battery users to minimize the effect of stress factors, and the appropriate selection of the anode material. We discuss More >

Abstract The heat and mass transfer characteristics of the influence of uniform blowing/suction and MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) on the free convection of non-Newtonian fluids over a vertical plate in porous media with internal heat generation and Soret/Dufour effects are numerically analyzed. The surface of the vertical plate has a uniform wall temperature and uniform wall concentration (UWT/UWC). The numerical modeling of this problem attracts considerable attention, owing to its practical applications in biological sciences, electronic cooling, advanced nuclear systems, etc. The transformed governing equations are solved by Keller box method. Comparisons showed excellent agreement with the numerical More >

Abstract An exact analysis is made to study the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) free convective flow of an electrically conducting and chemically reacting Newtonian, incompressible, viscous fluid, flowing past an infinite vertical plate with combined heat and mass transfer. An inclined magnetic field of uniform strength is applied to the plate. As the value of the magnetic Reynolds number is of comparable order of magnitude, the effect of induced magnetic field is being considered and on the other hand due to weak voltage difference caused by the very low polarization charges, the influence of electric field is considered… More >

Abstract In this article, we analyzed the second law of thermodynamics applied to an electrically conducting incompressible water based nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and uniform heat generation/absorption both analytically and numerically. The basic boundary layer equations are non-linear PDEs which are converted into non-linear ODEs using scaling transformation. The dimensionless governing equations for this investigation are solved analytically using hypergeometric function and numerically by the fourth order Runge Kutta method with shooting iteration technique. The effects of partial slip parameter with the nanoparticle volume fraction, magnetic parameter, radiation More >

Abstract A two-dimensional (2D) flow of an incompressible Williamson fluid of Cattaneo–Christov heat flux type over a linearly stretched surface with the influence of magnetic field, thermal radiation-diffusion, heat generation and viscous dissipation is carried out in the present study. To develop a Williamson flow model, a boundary layer approximation is taken into account. The non-dimensional, nonlinear, coupled ordinary differential equations with boundary condition are solved numerically using Nactsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique together with Runge-Kutta six order iteration scheme. The influences of physical parameters on the velocity, temperature, concentration is analysed through graphical consequences. To validate More >

Abstract This article reports a numerical study of nanoparticle Brownian motion and magnetic field effects by natural convection in a nanofluid-filled open cavity with non uniform boundary condition. Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is used to simulate nanofluid flow and heat transfer. The effective thermal conductivity and viscosity of nanofluid are calculated by KKL (Koo-Kleinstreuer-Li) correlation. In this model effect of Brownian motion on the effective thermal conductivity and effective viscosity is considered and examined. Simulations have been carried out for the pertinent parameters in the following ranges: Rayleigh number (Ra=10³−10⁶), Hartmann number (Ha=0-60), nanoparticle volume concentration (Φ=0–0.04) and More >

Abstract The paper reports the estimation of volumetric heat generation (qv) from a Teflon cylinder. An aluminum heater, which acts as a heat source, is placed at the center of the Teflon cylinder. The problem under consideration is modeled as a three dimensional steady state conjugate heat transfer from the Teflon cylinder. The model is created and simulations are performed using ANSYS FLUENT to obtain temperature data for the known heat generation qv. The numerical model developed using ANSYS acts as a forward model. The inverse model used in this work is Artificial Neural Network (ANN).… More >
