Series Solutions of Three-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Hybrid Nanofluid Flow and Heat Transfer

Hybrid nanofluids have many real-world applications. Research has shown that mixed nanofluids facilitate heat transfer better than nanofluids with one type of nanoparticle. New applications for this type of material include microfluidics, dynamic sealing, and heat dissipation. In this study, we began by placing copper into H2O to prepare a Cu-H2O nanofluid. Next, Cu-H2O was combined with Al2O3 to create a Cu-Al2O3-H2O hybrid nanofluid. In this article, we present an analytical study of the estimated flows and heat transfer of incompressible three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic hybrid nanofluids in the boundary layer. The application of similarity transformations converts the interconnected governing partial differential equations of the problem into a set of ordinary differential equations. Utilizing the homotopy analysis method (HAM), a uniformly effective series solution was obtained for the entire spatial region of 0 < η < ∞. The errors in the HAM calculation are smaller than 1 × 10-9 when compared to the results from the references. The volume fractions of the hybrid nanofluid and magnetic fields have significant impacts on the velocity and temperature profiles. The appearance of magnetic fields can alter the properties of hybrid nanofluids, thereby altering the local reduced friction coefficient and Nusselt numbers. As the volume fractions of nanoparticles increase, the effective viscosity of the hybrid nanofluid typically increases, resulting in an increase in the local skin friction coefficient. The increased interaction between the nanoparticles in the hybrid nanofluid leads to a decrease in the Nusselt number distribution.

Numerical modeling of a MHD non-linear radiative Maxwell nano fluid with activation energy

The present research explores linear as well as nonlinear radiation patterns based on the MHD non-Newtonian (Maxwell) nanofluid flow having Arrhenius activation energy. This study's core focus is MHD properties in non-Newtonian fluid dynamics and boundary layer phenomena analysis. It initiates with time-dependent equations, employing boundary layer approximations. Extensive numerical computations, executed with custom Compact Visual Fortran code and the EFD method, provide profound insights into non-Newtonian fluid behavior, revealing intricate force interactions and fluid patterns. To check the stability of the solution, a convergence and stability analysis is performed. With the values of ΔY = 0.25, Δτ = 0.0005, and ΔX = 0.20; it is found that the model convergence occurs to the Lewis number, Le > 0.016 as well as the Prandtl number, Pr > 0.08. In this context, investigating non-dimensional results that depend on multiple physical factors. Explanation and visual representations of the effects of different physical characteristics and their resultant temperatures, concentrations, and velocity profiles are provided. As a result of the illustrations, the skin friction coefficient and Sherwood number, which are calculated, as well as Nusselt values, have all come up in discussion. Additionally, detailed representations of isothermal lines and streamlines are implemented, and it is pointed out that the development of these features occurs at the same time as Brownian motion. Furthermore, the temperature field for Maxwell fluid is modified due to the impression of chemical reaction as well as the Dufour number (Kr and Du). Our research demonstrates the superior performance of non-Newtonian solutions, notably in cases involving activation energy and nonlinear radiation. This paradigm shift carries significant implications. In another context, the interplay between Maxwell fluid and nonlinear radiation is notably affected by activation energy, offering promising applications in fields like medicine and industry, particularly in groundbreaking cancer treatment approaches.

Peristaltic transport of Sutterby nanofluid flow in an inclined tapered channel with an artificial neural network model and biomedical engineering application

Modern energy systems are finding new applications for magnetohydrodynamic rheological bio-inspired pumping systems. The incorporation of the electrically conductive qualities of flowing liquids into the biological geometries, rheological behavior, and propulsion processes of these systems was a significant effort. Additional enhancements to transport properties are possible with the use of nanofluids. Due to their several applications in physiology and industry, including urine dynamics, chyme migration in the gastrointestinal system, and the hemodynamics of tiny blood arteries. Peristaltic processes also move spermatozoa in the human reproductive system and embryos in the uterus. The present research examines heat transport in a two-dimensional deformable channel containing magnetic viscoelastic nanofluids by considering all of these factors concurrently, which is vulnerable to peristaltic waves and hall current under ion slip and other situations. Nanofluid rheology makes use of the Sutterby fluid model, while nanoscale effects are modeled using the Buongiorno model. The current study introduces an innovative numerical computing solver utilizing a Multilayer Perceptron feed-forward back-propagation artificial neural network (ANN) with the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. Data were collected for testing, certifying, and training the ANN model. In order to make the dimensional PDEs dimensionless, the non-similar variables are employed and calculated by the Homotopy perturbation technique. The effects of developing parameters such as Sutterby fluid parameter, Froude number, thermophoresis, ion-slip parameter, Brownian motion, radiation, Eckert number, and Hall parameter on velocity, temperature, and concentration are demonstrated. The machine learning model chooses data, builds and trains a network, and subsequently assesses its performance using the mean square error metric. Current results declare that the improving Reynolds number tends to increase the pressure rise. Improving the Hall parameter is shown to result in a decrease in velocity. When raising a fluid's parameter, the temperature profile rises.

A sensitivity analysis of MHD nanofluid flow across an exponentially stretched surface with non-uniform heat flux by response surface methodology

The current study investigates the MHD flow of nanofluid across an elongating surface while taking into account non-uniform heat flux. For this, we have considered the flow of a boundary layer over a stretched sheet containing (water-based) Al₂O₃ nanoparticles. The convective boundary conditions for temperature have been invoked. The flow created by a surface that is exponentially expanding in the presence of a magnetic field and a non-uniform heat flux has been mathematically formulated by using laws of conservation. Transformed non-dimensional systems of governing equations have been analyzed numerically by using Adam’s Bashforth predictor corrector approach. The effects of emerging parameters on the fluid velocity and temperature profiles have been further described by plotting graphs. An experimental design and a sensitivity analysis based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM) are used to examine the effects of various physical factors and the dependence of the response factors of interest on the change of the input parameter. To establish the model dependencies of the output response variables, which include the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number, on the independent input parameters, which include the magnetic field parameter, the nanoparticle volume fraction, and the heat transfer Biot number, RSM is used. On the basis of statistical measures such as \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$Q - Q$$\end{document}Q-Q residual plots, adjusted and hypothesis testing using p values, it is observed that both of our models for Skin Friction Coefficient (SFC) and the Local Nusselt Number (LNN) are best fitted. Further, it is concluded that the sensitivity of the SFC, as well as the LNN through heat transfer Biot number, is greater than that of nanoparticle volume fraction and magnetic field parameter. The SFC is sensitive to all combinations of the input parameters. At high levels of heat transfer Biot number, the LNN displays negative sensitivity via magnetic field parameters.

Magneto-Hydrodynamic Flow above Exponentially Stretchable Surface with Chemical Reaction

This article is focused on investigating the convective magneto-hydrodynamic single-phase flow for comparative analysis of two different base fluids above an exponentially stretchable porous surface under the effect of the chemical reaction. The Buongiorno fluid model is incorporated to observe the Thermophoresis and Brownian diffusion in this study. Boussinesq approximation for temperature and concentration are accounted for flow to be naturally convective. In this study, water and ethanol are assumed for comparative analysis. Additionally, to achieve the outcomes of the designed three-dimensional flow boundary value, problem technique is employed to simulate the problem in MATLAB. Increase in the magnetic field, thermophoresis diffusion, temperature exponent, and Prandtl number expand thermal boundary, whereas contraction is observed with an increase in porosity. Shear stress rates in respective directions have decreased with an increase in the stretching ratio of the surface. Moreover, through comparison, reasonably enhanced Nusselt number is observed for water under influence of study parameters while the Nusselt number abruptly decreases for ethanol. High mass coefficients are observed for both examined fluids.

Finite Element Method for Non-Newtonian Radiative Maxwell NanoFluid Flow under the Influence of Heat and Mass Transfer

The recent study was concerned with employing the finite element method for heat and mass transfer of MHD Maxwell nanofluid flow over the stretching sheet under the effects of radiations and chemical reactions. Moreover, the effects of viscous dissipation and porous plate were considered. The mathematical model of the flow was described in the form of a set of partial differential equations (PDEs). Further, these PDEs were transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using similarity transformations. Rather than analytical integrations, numerical integration was used to compute integrals obtained by applying the finite element method. The mesh-free analysis and comparison of the finite element method with the finite difference method are also provided to justify the calculated results. The effect of different parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profile is shown in graphs, and numerical values for physical quantities of interest are also given in a tabular form. In addition, simulations were carried out by employing software that applies the finite element method for solving PDEs. The calculated results are also portrayed in graphs with varying sheet velocities. The results show that the second-order finite difference method is more accurate than the finite element method with linear interpolation polynomial. However, the finite element method requires less number of iterations than the finite difference method in a considered particular case. We had high hopes that this work would act as a roadmap for future researchers entrusted with resolving outstanding challenges in the realm of enclosures utilized in industry and engineering.

Darcy–Forchheimer Relation Influence on MHD Dissipative Third-Grade Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer in Porous Medium with Joule Heating Effects: A Numerical Approach

The current investigations are carried out to study the influence of the Darcy–Forchheimer relation on third-grade fluid flow and heat transfer over an angled exponentially stretching sheet embedded in a porous medium. In the current study, the applied magnetic field, Joule heating, thermaldiffusion, viscous dissipation, and diffusion-thermo effects are incorporated. The proposed model in terms of partial differential equations is transformed into ordinary differential equations using suitable similarity transformation. The reduced model is then solved numerically with the help of MATLAB built-in function bvp4c.The numerical solutions for velocity profile, temperature profile, and mass concentration under the effects of pertinent parameters involved in the model are determined and portrayed in graphical form. The graphical effects of the skin friction coefficient, the Nusselt number, and the Sherwood number are also shown. From the displayed results, we conclude that when the Joule heating parameter is enlarged, the velocity and the temperature of the fluid are increased. We observed that while enhancing the viscous dissipation parameter (Eckert number) the fluid’s velocity and temperature increase but decreases the mass concentration. By increasing the values of the thermal-diffusion parameter, the velocity distribution, the temperature field, and the mass concentration increase. When the diffusion–thermo parameter rises, the velocity field and the temperature distribution increase, and the reverse scenario is seen in the mass concentration. The results of the current study are compared with already published results, and a good agreement is noted to validate the current study.

Significance of Chemical Reaction and Lorentz Force on Third-Grade Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer with Darcy–Forchheimer Law over an Inclined Exponentially Stretching Sheet Embedded in a Porous Medium

The combined impact of a linear chemical reaction and Lorentz force on heat and mass transfer in a third-grade fluid with the Darcy–Forchheimer relation over an inclined, exponentially stretching surface embedded in a porous medium is investigated. The proposed process is mathematically expressed in terms of nonlinear and coupled partial differential equations, with the symmetry of the conditions normal to the surface. To solve the mathematical model of the proposed phenomenon, the partial differential equations are first reduced to ordinary differential equations; then, MATLAB built-in Numerical Solver bvp4c is used to obtain the numerical results of these equations. The influence of all the pertinent parameters that appeared in the flow model on the unknown material properties of interest is depicted in the forms of tables and graphs. The physical attitude of the unknown variables is discussed with physical reasoning. From the numerical solutions, it is inferred that, as Lorentz force parameter is increased, the velocity of the fluid decreases, but fluid temperature and mass concentration increase. Thisis due to the fact that Lorentz force retards the motion of fluid, and the increasing resistive force causes the rise in the temperature of the fluid. It is also noted that, owing to an increasein the magnitude of chemical reaction parameter , the velocity profile and the mass concentration decline as well, but the fluid temperature increases in a reasonable manner. It is noted that, by augmenting the values of the local inertial coefficient and the permeability parameter , the velocity field decreases, the temperature field increases, and mass concentration also increases with reasonable difference. Increasing values of Prandtl number results in a decrease in the profiles of velocity and temperature. All the numerical results are computed at the angle of inclination . The current results are compared with the available results in the existing literature for thisspecial case, and there is good agreement between them that shows the validation of the present study. All the numerical results show asymptotic behavior by satisfying the given boundary conditions.

Natural bio-convective flow of Maxwell nanofluid over an exponentially stretching surface with slip effect and convective boundary condition

The under-consideration article mainly focuses an unsteady three-dimensional Maxwell bio-convective nanomaterial liquid flow towards an exponentially expanding surface with the influence of chemical reaction slip condition. The feature of heat transport is achieving in the existenceof convective boundary condition and variable thermal conductivity. With the help of similarity variables, the flow form of equations is turned into a nonlinear form of coupled ODEs. The numerical solutions are calculated by adopting bvp4c function of MATLAB. Impact of distinct characteristics on the temperature, velocity microorganism and concentration field is graphically evaluated. Moreover, physical quantities are observed via graphs and tabulated data in details. It has been seen by the observation that the involvement of unsteadiness parameter restricts the change of laminar to turbulent flow. Further, for increasing velocity slip parameter velocity component in both directions shows lessening behavior. The Nusselt number exhibits diminishing behavior for larger values of Deborah number, and it shows the opposite behavior for larger values of convective parameter.

Comparative study of heat and mass transfer of generalized MHD Oldroyd-B bio-nano fluid in a permeable medium with ramped conditions

This article aims to investigate the heat and mass transfer of MHD Oldroyd-B fluid with ramped conditions. The Oldroyd-B fluid is taken as a base fluid (Blood) with a suspension of gold nano-particles, to make the solution of non-Newtonian bio-magnetic nanofluid. The surface medium is taken porous. The well-known equation of Oldroyd-B nano-fluid of integer order derivative has been generalized to a non-integer order derivative. Three different types of definitions of fractional differential operators, like Caputo, Caputo-Fabrizio, Atangana-Baleanu (will be called later as [Formula: see text]) are used to develop the resulting fractional nano-fluid model. The solution for temperature, concentration, and velocity profiles is obtained via Laplace transform and for inverse two different numerical algorithms like Zakian's, Stehfest's are utilized. The solutions are also shown in tabular form. To see the physical meaning of various parameters like thermal Grashof number, Radiation factor, mass Grashof number, Schmidt number, Prandtl number etc. are explained graphically and theoretically. The velocity and temperature of nanofluid decrease with increasing the value of gold nanoparticles, while increase with increasing the value of both thermal Grashof number and mass Grashof number. The Prandtl number shows opposite behavior for both temperature and velocity field. It will decelerate both the profile. Also, a comparative analysis is also presented between ours and the existing findings.

Functional Effects of Permeability on Oldroyd-B Fluid under Magnetization: A Comparison of Slipping and Non-Slipping Solutions

In this article, the impact of Newtonian heating in addition to slip effects was critically examined on the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid near an infinitely vertical plate. The functional effects such as the retardation and relaxation of materials can be estimated for magnetized permeability based on the relative decrease or increase during magnetization. From this perspective, a new mathematical model was formulated based on non-slippage and slippage postulates for the Oldroyd-B fluid with magnetized permeability. The heat transfer induction was also examined through a non-fractional developed mathematical model for the Oldroyd-B fluid. The exact solution expressions for non-dimensional equations of velocity and temperature were explored by employing Laplace integral transformation under slipping boundary conditions under Newtonian heating. The heat transfer rate was estimated through physical interpretation by considering the limits on the solutions induced by the Nusselt number. To comprehensively discuss the dynamics of the considered problem, the physical impacts of different parameters were studied and reverberations were graphically highlighted and deliberated. Furthermore, in order to validate the results, two limiting models, namely the Maxwell model and the second grade model, were used to compare the relevant flow characteristics. Additionally, in order to perform the parametric analysis, the graphical representation was portrayed for non-slipping and slipping solutions for velocity and temperature.

Analytical Simulation for Magnetohydrodynamic Maxwell Fluid Flow Past an Exponentially Stretching Surface with First-Order Velocity Slip Condition

The study of fluid flow upon an exponentially stretching surface has significant importance due to its applications in technological phenomena at the industrial level. These applications include condensing process of fluid film, heat exchanger processes, extrusion of plastic sheet in aerodynamics, cooling process of metal sheet, and growth of crystals, etc. Keeping in view all these applications, in this paper, we have discussed the magnetohydrodynamic flow of Maxwell fluid past an exponentially stretching sheet. The stretching surface is considered to be slippery by imposing the velocity slip condition. The magnetic field impact is taken into consideration. Furthermore, heat radiation, Joule heating, Brownian motion, and thermophoresis are also considered. The modeled system is reduced to ordinary differential equations with the help of similarity variables. For the analytical solution, we have used the homotopy analysis method. Furthermore, HAM is compared with the shooting method and found to be in great agreement. The squared residual error of the fluid flow problem at 15th order of approximations for Newtonian and non-Newtonian cases has been investigated. It is found that the fluid flow problem converges quickly for the case of non-Newtonian fluid as compared to Newtonian fluid. In addition, the velocity profile increases while the thermal and concentration profiles reduce with greater values of Darcy number. The thermal profile is the increasing function of the Brownian motion parameter and Eckert number whereas the concentration profile is the reducing function of the Brownian motion parameter and Eckert number. With the augmentation in Darcy number, the permeability strength of porous medium increases which concludes the increasing conduct of thermal and mass transportation.

Modelling of Applied Magnetic Field and Thermal Radiations Due to the Stretching of Cylinder

In this study, a numerical approach was adopted in order to explore the analysis of magneto fluid in the presence of thermal radiation combined with mixed convective and slip conditions. Using the similarity transformation, the axisymmetric three-dimensional boundary layer equations were reduced to a self-similar form. The shooting technique, combined with the Range–Kutta–Fehlberg method, was used to solve the resulting coupled nonlinear momentum and heat transfer equations numerically. When physically interpreting the data, some important observations were made. The novelty of the present study lies in finding help to control the rate of heat transfer and fluid velocity in any industrial manufacturing processes (such as the cooling of metallic plates). The numerical results revealed that the Nusselt number decrease for larger Prandtl number, curvature, and convective parameters. At the same time, the skin friction coefficient was enhanced with an increase in both slip velocity and convective parameter. The effect of emerging physical parameters on velocity and temperature profiles for a nonlinear stretching cylinder has been thoroughly studied and analyzed using plotted graphs and tables.

It is perceived that fluid temperature is augmented for large estimates of the radiation and Darcy parameters. Moreover, it is noticed that the magnetic and wall roughness parameters lower the fluid velocity. To corroborate the presented results, a comparison of the current study with a previously published paper is also executed. An outstanding correlation in this regard is attained.

The Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model is affianced instead of conventional Fourier law. The renowned bvp4c function of MATLAB is utilized to handle the nonlinearity of the system. Impacts of miscellaneous parameters are portrayed through graphical fallouts and numeric statistics. Results divulge that the velocity and temperature profiles show the opposite trend for growing estimates of the ferromagnetic parameter. It is also noticed that the temperature ratio parameter diminishes the entropy profile. Moreover, it is seen that the concentration profile displays a dwindling trend for the Brownian motion parameter and the opposite trend is witnessed for the thermophoretic parameter.

Radiative heat transfer enhancement in MHD porous channel flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid under generalized boundary conditions

This study explains the transient free convection phenomenon in a vertical porous channel subject to nonlinear thermal radiation. The infinite vertical channel encloses magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid. The left channel wall possesses time-dependent velocity u 0 g ( t ˜ ) , while the right wall exhibits no motion. The momentum and temperature field equations are developed on the bases of momentum conservation law and Fourier’s principle of heat transfer. Laplace transformation technique and Durbin’s numerical inversion method are jointly incorporated to compute the solutions of the formulated problem. The influences of flow and material parameters on heat transfer and fluid velocity are graphically scrutinized with physical aspects. The numerical computations for skin friction and temperature gradient are tabularized to comprehensively examine the wall shear stress and heat transfer rate. Finally, velocity fields for Maxwell fluid, second grade fluid, and viscous fluid are traced out as limiting cases and their comparison is drawn with the velocity field of an Oldroyd-B fluid. Besides this, some newly published results are also deduced from the acquired solutions. It is observed that increasing the magnitude of radiation parameter Rd rapidly enhances the rate of heat transfer at the right channel wall while an inverse behavior of Nusselt number is witnessed at the left channel wall. The Maxwell fluid and second grade fluid indicate the swiftest and slowest channel flow rates respectively. The shear stress specifies dual nature for relaxation and retardation parameters subject to static and moving wall. Additionally, it is found that the flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid is retarded by a magnetic field.

A mathematical model is envisioned to discourse the impact of Thompson and Troian slip boundary in the carbon nanotubes suspended nanofluid flow near a stagnation point along an expanding/contracting surface. The water is considered as a base fluid and both types of carbon nanotubes i.e., single-wall (SWCNTs) and multi-wall (MWCNTs) are considered. The flow is taken in a Dacry-Forchheimer porous media amalgamated with quartic autocatalysis chemical reaction. Additional impacts added to the novelty of the mathematical model are the heat generation/absorption and buoyancy effect. The dimensionless variables led the envisaged mathematical model to a physical problem. The numerical solution is then found by engaging MATLAB built-in bvp4c function for non-dimensional velocity, temperature, and homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions. The validation of the proposed mathematical model is ascertained by comparing it with a published article in limiting case. An excellent consensus is accomplished in this regard. The behavior of numerous dimensionless flow variables including solid volume fraction, inertia coefficient, velocity ratio parameter, porosity parameter, slip velocity parameter, magnetic parameter, Schmidt number, and strength of homogeneous/heterogeneous reaction parameters are portrayed via graphical illustrations. Computational iterations for surface drag force are tabulated to analyze the impacts at the stretched surface. It is witnessed that the slip velocity parameter enhances the fluid stream velocity and diminishes the surface drag force. Furthermore, the concentration of the nanofluid flow is augmented for higher estimates of quartic autocatalysis chemical.

Dual (no) similarity solutions can be found in the range of Sc≤S and Mc≤M (Sc>S and Mc>M). By performing stability analysis, the smallest values of eigenvalue are obtained, suggesting that a stable solution is the first one. Furthermore, the graph of the smallest eigenvalue shows symmetrical behavior. By enhancing the Eckert number values the temperature of the fluid is raised.
