MHD dissipative Powell-Eyring fluid flow due to a stretching sheet with convective boundary conditions and slip velocity

The novelty and motivation of this research can be emphasized by examining how the heat transfer mechanism of a non-Newtonian Powell-Eyring fluid, which flows because of a stretched sheet, is affected by factors like viscous dissipation, the slip velocity phenomenon, and Joule heating. In addition, the investigation delves into the heat transfer behavior of the fluid flow when it comes into contact with a convectively heated stretched surface that is influenced by varying fluid properties. This analysis also takes into account the influence of changing fluid characteristics and the presence of magnetic field. The numerical solutions of modelled equations that governing the problem are detected using the shooting technique. Also, in order to confirm the validity of the present investigation, a proper comparison with certain published works as a particular case of the present model is presented, and a perfect agreement is noted. With the use of diagrams and tables, the flow problem's effective parameters are thoroughly discussed. Likewise, through a tabular representation, the values of the local Nusselt number and the skin-friction coefficient are computed and analyzed. Many significant conclusions can be drawn from numerical results. Most importantly, the local Nusselt number rises monotonically with both the surface convection parameter and the slip velocity parameter, but the local skin-friction coefficient has the opposite trend. The results indicate that the nanofluid temperature is enhanced by factors such as the surface convection parameter, magnetic field, and viscous dissipation. On the other hand, the slip velocity phenomenon leads to the opposite effect.

Significance of the inclined magnetic field on the water-based hybrid nanofluid flow over a nonlinear stretching sheet

This work addresses a theoretical exploration of the water-based hybrid nanofluid flow over a nonlinear elongating surface. The flow is taken under the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis factors. Additionally, the inclined magnetic field is imposed in the present study to investigate the flow behavior at different angle of inclination. Homotopy analysis approach is used for the solution of modeled equations. Various physical factors, which are encountered during process of transformation, have been discussed physically. It is found that the magnetic factor and angle of inclination have reducing impacts on the velocity profiles of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid. The nonlinear index factor has direction relation with the velocity and temperature of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid flows. The thermal profiles of the nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid are augmented with the increasing thermophoretic and Brownian motion factors.CuO-H2Onanofluid flow has enhanced heat transfer rate thanAg-H2Onanofluid flow. On the other hand, theCuO-Ag/H2Ohybrid nanofluid has better thermal flow rate thanCuO-H2OandAg-H2Onanofluids. From this table it has noticed that, Nusselt number has increased by 4% for silver nanoparticles whereas for hybrid nanofluid this incrimination is about 15%, which depicts that Nusselt number is higher for hybrid nanoparticles.
