Impact of Radiation and Slip Conditions on MHD Flow of Nanofluid Past an Exponentially Stretched Surface

The current research establishes magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) boundary layer flow with heat and mass transfer of a nanofluid over an exponentially extending sheet embedded in a porous medium. During this exploration, nanoparticles, single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are recruited, while lamp fuel oil is being utilised as a base fluid for the diffusion of nano materials. The effects of warm radiation and an inclined magnetic field are included. In addition, rather than no-slip assumptions at the surface, velocity slides as well as thermal upsurge are incorporated in this study. Similarity transformations are implemented to adapt a set of partial differential equations into a system of non-linear ordinary differential equations. The bvp4c solver and Keller-box approach are employed to tackle nonlinear ordinary differential equations numerically. The significance of prominent parameters such as the Darcy Forchheimer model, magnetic field, radiation, suction, velocity slip, and temperature jump is visually probed and addressed in depth. In fact, the evolution of the coefficient of skin friction and percentage of heat shipping (Nusselt number) for both SWCNTs and MWCNTs is presented in tabular form. The temperature goes up as the magnetic parameter rises. Temperature has been seen to be decreased as the thermal slip parameter is improved. The results indicate that SWCNTs yield a higher coefficient of skin friction and speed of heat transformation than MWCNTs.

Nonlinear convection stagnation point heat transfer and MHD fluid flow in porous medium towards a permeable shrinking sheet

This investigation deals with the analysis of stagnation point heat transfer and corresponding flow features of hydromagnetic viscous incompressible fluid over a vertical shrinking sheet. The considered sheet is assumed to be permeable and subject to addition of stagnation point to control the generated vorticity in the boundary layer. The sheet is placed on the right side of the fluid saturated porous medium which is having permeability of specified form. Nonlinear convection waves in the flow field are realized due to the envisaged nonlinear relation between density and temperature. The equations governing the nonlinear convection boundary layer flow are modeled and simplified using similarity transformations. The economized equations are solved for numerical solutions by employing the implicit finite difference scheme also known as Keller-box method. The influence of the associated parameters of the problem on velocity and temperature distributions, skin friction and rate of heat transfer are presented through graphs and tables, and qualitatively discussed. The study reveals that interaction among magnetic field, porous medium permeability and nonlinear convection parameters substantially enhance the solution range and thus endorse their control to sustain the boundary layer flow.
