“…Recently, some research ([ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]) has examined the effect of nanoparticles in different types of fluids. A comparison of thermal characteristics of Cu and Ag nanoparticle suspensions in sodium alginate for Sutterby nanofluid flow in solar collectors was conducted by Bouslimi et al [ 18 ]. Shahzad et al [ 19 ] investigated the thermal cooling efficiency of a solar water pump by using Oldroyd-B (aluminum alloy–titanium alloy/engine oil) hybrid nanofluid.…”

This article examines the effects of entropy generation, heat transmission, and mass transfer on the flow of Jeffrey fluid under the influence of solar radiation in the presence of copper nanoparticles and gyrotactic microorganisms, with polyvinyl alcohol–water serving as the base fluid. The impact of source terms such as Joule heating, viscous dissipation, and the exponential heat source is analyzed via a nonlinear elongating surface of nonuniform thickness. The development of an efficient numerical model describing the flow and thermal characteristics of a parabolic trough solar collector (PTSC) installed on a solar plate is underway as the use of solar plates in various devices continues to increase. Governing PDEs are first converted into ODEs using a suitable similarity transformation. The resulting higher-order coupled ODEs are converted into a system of first-order ODEs and then solved using the RK 4th-order method with shooting technique. The remarkable impacts of pertinent parameters such as Deborah number, magnetic field parameter, electric field parameter, Grashof number, solutal Grashof number, Prandtl number, Eckert number, exponential heat source parameter, Lewis number, chemical reaction parameter, bioconvection Lewis number, and Peclet number associated with the flow properties are discussed graphically. The increase in the radiation parameter and volume fraction of the nanoparticles enhances the temperature profile. The Bejan number and entropy generation rate increase with the rise in diffusion parameter and bioconvection diffusion parameter. The novelty of the present work is analyzing the entropy generation and solar radiation effects in the presence of motile gyrotactic microorganisms and copper nanoparticles with polyvinyl alcohol–water as the base fluid under the influence of the source terms, such as viscous dissipation, Ohmic heating, exponential heat source, and chemical reaction of the electromagnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) Jeffrey fluid flow. The non-Newtonian nanofluids have proven their great potential for heat transfer processes, which have various applications in cooling microchips, solar energy systems, and thermal energy technologies.

“…The results indicated that square jets provided the largest heat transfer when compared with circular jets 23 . Moreover, the various applications and uses of a magnetic field, a wavy porous layer, and a multijet and slot‐impinging system, along with more related studies regarding hybrid/nonhybrid nanofluids, are considered and can be observed here 24–36 …”

“…23 Moreover, the various applications and uses of a magnetic field, a wavy porous layer, and a multijet and slot-impinging system, along with more related studies regarding hybrid/nonhybrid nanofluids, are considered and can be observed here. [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] The aforementioned evaluations indicate that several computational and experimental types of research studies on the forced laminar convection heat transfer of jet impingement on the flat target surface have been carried out. However, less attention is focused on the effect of metal foam across a jet impingement integrated with an ANSYS FLUENT-CFD and response surface methodology (RSM) approach optimization study under the pressure drop effect.…”

The thermohydraulic and thermodynamic performance of porous jet impingement under pressure drop effect has not yet been jointly published. Thus, the novelty of this work computationally along with the response surface methodology (RSM) optimization approach considers the porous jet impingement performance linked with a pressure drop simultaneously. Also, the current study used a novel multiobjective optimum design study for various design parameters, such as porosity (ε), Darcy number (Da), and pore per inch (PPI), under numerical simulation assessment of forced laminar convection of jet impingement with full and partial metal foam. The influence of various base plate thicknesses (t = 0, 1, 2, and 3 mm), various nanofluids (Al2O3, CuO, SiO2, and ZnO), and the metal foam size percentage (W/L = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1) on the improvement of the thermohydraulic and thermodynamic performance is also simulated. Results indicated that utilizing pure water and a metal foam size (W/L) of 1 along with a base plate thickness of 0 mm produced the preferable thermohydraulic and thermodynamic performance. Furthermore, according to an optimization analysis, the current study's objective for the thermohydraulic and thermodynamic performance of jet impingement can be achieved using the parameters porosity ε = 0.1, Darcy number, Da = 1, and the PPI = 15. Therefore, this investigation integrating computational fluid dynamics and RSM offers considerable innovation and useful reference for the optimum design of a porous jet impingement cooling.

“…depending on the sensible heat storage mode, have low heat storage density, thereby resulting in low efficiency of solar thermal collectors. To date, effective strategies, including dispersing various nanomaterials (e.g., carbon material, 15,16 metal [17][18][19][20] or metal oxide [21][22][23] ) into working uids to form nanouids, have emerged to enhance the utilization efficiency of solar energy because of the improved thermal conductivity of the working uid. Yet, it is notable that thermal storage capacity could not be improved simply by introducing nanomaterials.…”
