Abstract Convective flow is a self-sustained flow with the effect of the temperature gradient. The density is non-uniform due to the variation of temperature. The effect of the magnetic flux plays a major role in convective flow. The process of heat transfer is accompanied by a mass transfer process; for instance, condensation, evaporation, and chemical process. Due to the applications of the heat and mass transfer combined effects in a different field, the main aim of this paper is to do a comprehensive analysis of heat and mass transfer of MHD unsteady second-grade fluid in the… 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 More >

Abstract Entropy Generation Optimization (EGO) attained huge interest of scientists and researchers due to its numerous applications comprised in mechanical engineering, air conditioners, heat engines, thermal machines, heat exchange, refrigerators, heat pumps and substance mixing etc. Therefore, the study of radiative hybrid nanofluid (GO-MoS₂/C₂H₆O₂–H₂O) and the conventional nanofluid (MoS₂/C₂H₆O₂–H₂O) is conducted in the presence of Lorentz forces. The flow configuration is modeled between the parallel rotating plates in which the lower plate is permeable. The models which govern the flow in rotating system are solved numerically over the domain of interest and furnished the results for the… More >

Abstract The forthright aim of this correspondence is to examine the conduct of MHD, viscous dissipation and Joule heating on three dimensional nonNewtonian Carreau fluid flow over a linear stretching surface. Impact of non-linear Rosseland thermal radiation and homogenous/heterogenous reaction process have been also considered to examine the heat and mass transfer process during fluid flow. The velocity and thermal slip effect at the surface have also been scrutinized in detail. By utilizing a suitable transformation, the modelled partial differential equations (PDEs) are renovated into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and furthermore solved with the help of… More >

Abstract A theoretical analysis has been carried out to investigate the influence of unsteadiness on the laminar two-phase magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid flow filled with porous medium under the combined effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. Thermal variable conductivity, thermal radiation and viscous dissipation effects are also considered in this numerical study. The highly nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations through suitable similarity transformations. The resultant ordinary differential equations are then numerically solved using the spectral quasilinearization method. The effects of the pertinent physical parameters over the fluid velocity, More >

Abstract This methodology presented the unsteady three-dimensional laminar flow since Hall effects inducing the cross flow in z-axis. The boundary layer and the low magnetic Reynolds number approximations are used to simplify the system of equations derived from the constitutive laws. The upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) fluid model used for Hall effects with unsteady heat transfer, which passed through the infinite stretching sheet. This flow model has intensified with the effects of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), thermal radiation and heat generation-absorption.

Abstract Accurate aerodynamic heating prediction is of great significance to current manned space flight and deep space exploration missions. The temperature in the shock layer surrounding the reentry vehicle can reach up to 10,000 K and result in remarkable thermochemical nonequilibrium, as well as considerable radiative heat transfer. In general, high-temperature flow simulations coupled with thermal radiation require appropriate numerical schemes and physical models. In this paper, the equations governing hypersonic nonequilibrium flow, based on a three-temperature model combined with a thermal radiation solving approach, are used to investigate the radiation effects in the reentry shock… More >

Abstract This paper investigates the chemical reaction and thermal radiation effects on unsteady MHD free convective flow past a vertical porous plate in the presence of heat absorption/generation. The novelty of present investigation is that the temperature and concentration of the plate are span wise cosinusoidally unsteady with time. The second order perturbation technique is employed to study the non-linear partial differential equations which govern the fluid flow. The effects of magnetic parameter, radiation, Eckert number, Schmidt number and chemical reaction parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration distributions as well as skin friction coefficients, the rate More >
