Magnetohydrodynamic three-dimensional boundary layer flow and heat transfer of water-driven copper and alumina nanoparticles induced by convective conditions

    This work examines the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) three-dimensional (3D) flow comprising Cu and Al2O3 water-based nanofluids. The effects of heat and mass transfer with the effects of nanoparticles are carried out in the existence of thermal radiation and convective heat and mass transfer boundary conditions. By applying the proper similarity transformations the partial differential equations describing velocity, temperature and nanoparticle volume fraction (NVF) are transformed to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (NODE). An optimal homotopy analysis technique is applied to evaluate the analytical solutions. The influences of pertinent parameters on the velocity, temperature and NVF are displayed in graphical and tabular forms. Calculations of Nusselt number, skin friction coefficients and the local Sherwood number are evaluated via tables. An excellent comparison has also been made with the previously-published literature.
