Radiation Effects on Free Convection Flow Near a Moving Vertical Plate with Newtonian Heating

Comprehensive examination of radiative electromagnetic flowing of nanofluids with viscous dissipation effect over a vertical accelerated plate

This research aims to establish the MHD radiating convective nanofluid flow properties with the viscous dissipation across an exponentially accelerating vertical plate. As the plate accelerates, its temperature progressively increases. There are two separate types of water-based nanofluids that include copper ($$Cu$$ Cu ) and titanium dioxide ($$Ti{O}_{2}$$ T i O 2 ) nanoparticles, respectively. The most crucial aspect of this investigation is finding a closed-form solution to a nonlinear coupled partial differential equations scheme. Galerkin finite element method (G-FEM) is used to figure out the initial managing equations. Utilizing graphs, the effect of the flow phenomenon's contributing variables as well as the influence of other factors is determined and depicted. In the part dedicated to the findings and discussion, the properties of these emergent parameters are described in more depth. Nonetheless, the thermal radiation and heat sink factors increase the thermal profile. In addition, the greater density of the copper nanoparticles cause the nanoparticle volume fraction to lessen the velocity delineation.

Crank Nicholson scheme to examine the fractional-order unsteady nanofluid flow of free convection of viscous fluids

Fractional fluid models are usually difficult to solve analytically due to complicated mathematical calculations. This difficulty in considering fractional model further increases when one considers nth order chemical reaction. Therefore, in this work an incompressible nanofluid flow as well as the benefits of free convection across an isothermal vertical sheet is examined numerically. An nth order chemical reaction is considered in the chemical species model. The specified velocity (wall’s) is time-based, and its motion is translational into mathematical form. The fractional differential equations are used to express the governing flow equations (FDEs). The non-dimensional controlling system is given appropriate transformations. A Crank Nicholson method is used to find solutions for temperature, solute concentration, and velocity. Variation in concentration, velocity, and temperature profiles is produced as a result of changes in discussed parameters for both Ag-based and Cu-based nanofluid values. Water is taken as base fluid. The fractional-order time evaluation has opened the new gateways to study the problem into a new direction and it also increased the choices due to the extended version. It records the hidden figures of the problem between the defined domain of the time evaluation. The suggested technique has good accuracy, dependability, effectiveness and it also cover the better physics of the problem specially with concepts of fractional calculus.

Unsteady boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a Casson fluid past an oscillating vertical plate with Newtonian heating

In this paper, the heat transfer effect on the unsteady boundary layer flow of a Casson fluid past an infinite oscillating vertical plate with Newtonian heating is investigated. The governing equations are transformed to a systems of linear partial differential equations using appropriate non-dimensional variables. The resulting equations are solved analytically by using the Laplace transform method and the expressions for velocity and temperature are obtained. They satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions and reduce to some well-known solutions for Newtonian fluids. Numerical results for velocity, temperature, skin friction and Nusselt number are shown in various graphs and discussed for embedded flow parameters. It is found that velocity decreases as Casson parameters increases and thermal boundary layer thickness increases with increasing Newtonian heating parameter.

Effects of wall shear stress on unsteady MHD conjugate flow in a porous medium with ramped wall temperature

This study investigates the effects of an arbitrary wall shear stress on unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of a Newtonian fluid with conjugate effects of heat and mass transfer. The fluid is considered in a porous medium over a vertical plate with ramped temperature. The influence of thermal radiation in the energy equations is also considered. The coupled partial differential equations governing the flow are solved by using the Laplace transform technique. Exact solutions for velocity and temperature in case of both ramped and constant wall temperature as well as for concentration are obtained. It is found that velocity solutions are more general and can produce a huge number of exact solutions correlative to various fluid motions. Graphical results are provided for various embedded flow parameters and discussed in details.

Natural convection flow near a vertical plate that applies a shear stress to a viscous fluid

The unsteady natural convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid near a vertical plate that applies an arbitrary shear stress to the fluid is studied using the Laplace transform technique. The fluid flow is due to both the shear and the heating of the plate. Closed-form expressions for velocity and temperature are established under the usual Boussinesq approximation. For illustration purposes, two special cases are considered and the influence of pertinent parameters on the fluid motion is graphically underlined. The required time to reach the steady state in the case of oscillating shear stresses on the boundary is also determined.

Conjugate effects of heat and mass transfer on MHD free convection flow over an inclined plate embedded in a porous medium

The aim of this study is to present an exact analysis of combined effects of radiation and chemical reaction on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free convection flow of an electrically conducting incompressible viscous fluid over an inclined plate embedded in a porous medium. The impulsively started plate with variable temperature and mass diffusion is considered. The dimensionless momentum equation coupled with the energy and mass diffusion equations are analytically solved using the Laplace transform method. Expressions for velocity, temperature and concentration fields are obtained. They satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions and can be reduced, as special cases, to some known solutions from the literature. Expressions for skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also obtained. Finally, the effects of pertinent parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are graphically displayed whereas the variations in skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are shown through tables.
