Significance of Thermophoretic and Brownian Motion on MHD Nanofluids Flow towards a Circular Cylinder under the Inspiration of Multiple Slips: An Industrial Application

Abstract

In this article, MHD flow of silver/water nanofluid past a stretched cylinder under the impact of thermal radiation with chemical reaction and slip condition is studied. The impact of Soret and Dufour effect is also analyzed during this flow. The uniqueness of the given problem is enlarged with the insertion of variable magnetic field, free stream velocity, thermal slip condition, and nonlinear thermal radiation. The PDEs are converted to ODEs by using suitable similarity transformation. The nonlinear system of ODEs is solved by applying convergent homotopy analysis method (HAM). The velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles for the free stream and at the plate are discussed through graphs and numerical tables. It is found that velocity field reduces, while the temperature profile rises for the increasing values of magnetic parameter. It is examined that effects of curvature on frication factor are increasing. Furthermore, temperature profile increases for greater Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters. Transfer of heat enhances decreasing the radius of the cylinder also with heat generation parameter. The skin friction can be reduced by enhancing free stream and wall stretching velocities ratio. Velocity profile of the flow can be controlled by enhancing velocity slip and magnetic field.

Influence of multiple slips on magnetically driven nanofluid flow over an externally heated stretching cylinder

“…In both cases, a lower magnitude is found for flow with solutal slip. The result agrees with Majeed et al 57 Magnetic parameters increase the concentration profile of fluid flow as it creates Lorentz force which opposes the fluid flow and more heat is produced due to friction. as a…”

Dual Solution with Heat Transfer through Moving Porous Plate of an Unsteady Incompressible Viscous Fluid

“…Flowing through the porous medium was attracted by researchers due to its applications in processes such as wire drawing, hot rolling, the aerodynamic bulge of plastics, and liquid film condensation [14], demonstrates the analysis of incompressible viscous fluid through a porous medium when the flow was considered over a stretching sheet. Application of fluid under difference circumstances has been discussed [15][16][17][18][19]. In chemical industries, high temperatures cause hydrocarbon oils to break down, becoming very viscous until they solidify at low temperatures [20].…”

Double-diffusive Hamel–Jeffrey flow of nanofluid in a convergent/divergent permeable medium under zero mass flux

“…Vinita and Poply 4 disclosed the slip features in hydro-magnetic nanofluid caused by stretchable cylinder. Majeed et al 5 discussed the nanofluid motion through circular type cylinder using the Buongiorno’s model under the significance of multiple slips. Alsaedi et al 6 illustrated the mixed convection features in the peristalsis of magneto nanofluid under the impact of compliant wall.…”
