Analysis of Arrhenius Kinetics on Multiphase Flow between a Pair of Rotating Circular Plates

Abstract

In this study, we aim to deal with the flow behavior betwixt a pair of rotating circular plates filled with Carreau fluid under the suspension of nanoparticles and motile gyrotactic microorganisms in the presence of generalized magnetic Reynolds number. The activation energy is also contemplated with the nanoparticle concentration equation. The appropriate similarity transformations are used to formulate the proposed mathematical modeling in the three dimensions. The outcomes of the torque on both plates, i.e., the fix and the moving plate, are also contemplated. A well-known differential transform method (DTM) with a combination of Padé approximation will be implemented to get solutions to the coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The impact of different nondimensional physical aspects on velocity profile, temperature, concentration, and motile gyrotactic microorganism functions is discussed. The shear-thinning fluid viscosity decreases with shear strain due to its high velocity compared to the Newtonian and shear-thickening case. The impact of Carreau fluid velocity for shear-thinning n < 1 , Newtonian case n = 0 , and shear-thickening n > 1 cases on axial velocity distribution f ′ λ has been discussed in tabular form and graphical figures. For the validation of the current methodology, a comparison is made between DTM-Padé and the numerical shooting scheme.

Influence of peristalsis on the convective flow of two immiscible fluids in a vertical channel

“…Brasseaur et al 25 investigated the significance of two‐layered peristaltic pumping of viscous fluids in a channel. The peristaltic motion of two‐layered flows was also studied by Ramachandra Rao and Usha, 26 Usha and Ramachandra Rao, 27 Misra and Pandey, 28 Vajravelu et al, 29,30 Sreenadh et al, 31 Abd Elmaboud et al, 32 Zeeshan et al, 33 Alolaiyan et al, 34 Ijaz et al, 35 Arain et al, 36 and Ali et al 37,38 …”

Entropy Analysis on a Three-Dimensional Wavy Flow of Eyring–Powell Nanofluid: A Comparative Study

“…Working in the domain of nonlinear fluid flows creates challenges to the mathematician and simulation engineers with its diversity and complexity. As the complexity of such fluids offers no unique constitutive equation which encounters all the properties, for such fluids, several non-Newtonian models are presented in [1][2][3][4]. e polymeric liquids reveal diverse rheological attributes apparent in the flow, such as polymer accumulation, mechanical mortification, and solvent composition.…”

Influence of Chemically Reacting Ferromagnetic Carreau Nanofluid over a Stretched Sheet with Magnetic Dipole and Viscous Dissipation

“…He declared that DTM is more powerful technique [34,35]. In the study [36], Arain et al studied the flow behavior of Carreau fluid along rotating circular plates with gyrotactic microorganisms under the effects of magnetic generalized Reynolds # and concluded that fluid viscosity declines in shear thinning case when comparing with Newtonian and shear thickening fluids.…”
