The Effect of Melting on Mixed Convection Heat and Mass Transfer in Non-Newtonian Nanofluid Saturateed in Porous Medium

Abstract: In this paper, we investigated the influence of melting on mixed convection heat and mass transfer from the vertical flat plate in a non-Newtonian nanofluid saturated porous medium. The wall and the ambient medium are maintained at constant, but different, levels of temperature and concentration. The Ostwald-de Waele power-law model is used to characterize the non-Newtonian nanofluid behavior. A similarity solution for the transformed governing equations is obtained. The numerical computation is carried out fo… Show more

“…Their result indicates that with an increase of the suction parameter, the temperature profiles decrease whereas the concentration profiles upsurge. Moreover, RamReddy and Kairi [9], Lakshmi et al, [10], Ambreen et al, [11], Aurangzaib et al, [12], Reddy et al, [13], Al-Mamun et al, [14], and Ahmed et al, [15] studied mixed convective heat and mass transfer of MHD nanofluids embedded in porous medium over stretching surfaces. From their result, it can be seen that temperature distribution and thermal boundary layer reduce with an increase of dimensionless thermal free convection parameter, dimensionless mass free convection parameter, and Prandtl number.…”

“…Over stretched surfaces, the effect of mixed convective mass and heat transport of MHD nanoparticles inserted in permeable sheet. Thermal boundary layer and energy profile diminish when the Prandtl number and dimensionless mass free convection parameter grow, according to their findings investigated by [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. In 1995, Choi [9] proposed that nano-sized particles dispersed in a base fluid, dubbed nanofluid, have a higher heat transfer capacity than fluids lacking nano-sized particles.…”

“…The laminar mixed convection flow from a vertical surface was studied by Chaudhry et al [5]. The melting effects on mixed convection heat and mass transfer in a non-Newtonian nanofluid submerged in a porous medium were carried out by Ram Reddy and Kairi in [6]. They discovered that when the buoyancy ratio grows, the heat transfer coefficient decreases in the entire range of porous geometry.…”
