This paper investigates the analytical study of the temperature fluid distribution in a one-dimensional fluid flow under a magnetic field. It studies the effect of internal heat generation on the entropy generation in an exothermic reactive hydromagnetic fluid flow under Arrhenius kinetics. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and electrically conducting flowing steadily through a channel with isothermal wall temperature. The solution is obtained taking into account a supplementary term in energy equation due to internal heat generation using the traditional perturbation method. Thermophysical aspects of the flow are presented and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
