Narrow Results

This research discusses the investigation of heat and mass transfer in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Casson fluid (CF) flow over an exponentially porous stretching sheet. The analysis takes into account the existence of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, chemical reactions, and the influence of velocity and thermal slips. A recognized Casson model is taken into account in order to distinguish the characteristics of Casson fluid from those of Newtonian fluids. Using the geometry under consideration, the current physical problem is modeled. Appropriate similarity conversions are implemented to reduce the resultant set of coupled nonlinear PDEs to a set of nonlinear ODEs. By implementing the Keller-Box technique, numerical solutions to these reduced non-dimensional governing flow field equations are obtained. Tables and diagrams are utilized to illustrate the physical behavior of various control parameters. The temperature profile is enhanced and velocity profile diminished as the CF parameter value increased, according to this study. An increase in the velocity slip factor resulted in a diminution in the velocity field, while a gain in the thermal and concentration contours. With growing amounts of the chemical reaction factor, the concentration profile exhibited a decline. Indeed, the similar outcomes elucidated in this paper exhibit a remarkable correspondence with solutions that have been previously documented in the academic literature. This research may be motivated by a desire to improve the comprehension of fluid flow in different engineering and environmental situations, where these conditions are common, such as geothermal energy extraction, thermal management, chemical processing industries, and environmental control technologies.

Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) have numerous engineering and biomedical applications such as sensors, MHD pumps, magnetic medications, MRI, cancer therapy, astronomy, cosmology, earthquakes, and cardiovascular devices. In view of these applications and current developments, we investigate the magnetohydrodynamic MHD electro-osmotic flow of Casson nanofluid during peristaltic movement in a non-uniform porous asymmetric channel. The effect of thermal radiation, heat source, and Hall current on the Casson fluid peristaltic pumping in a porous medium is taken into consideration. The effect of chemical reactions is also considered. The mass, momentum, energy, and concentration equations were constructed using the proper transformations and dimensionless variables to make them easier for non-Newtonian fluids. A lubricating strategy is used to make the system less complicated. The Boltzmann distribution of electric potential over an electric double layer is studied using the Debye–Huckel approximation. The temperature and concentration equations are addressed using the homotopy perturbation method (HPM), while the exact solution is determined for the velocity field. The study examines the performance of velocity, pressure rise, temperature, concentration, streamlines, Nusselt, and Sherwood numbers for the involved parameters using graphical illustrations and tables. Asymmetric channels exhibit varying behavior, with velocity declining near the left wall and accelerating towards the right wall while enhancing the Casson fluid parameter. The pumping rate boosts in the retrograde region due to the evolution of the permeability parameter value, while it declines in the augment region. The temperature profile optimizes as the value of the heat source parameter gets higher. The concentration profile significantly falls as the chemical reaction parameter rises. The size of the trapped bolus strengthens with a spike in the parameter for the Casson fluid.

This work focused on slip flow over a non-Newtonian nanofluid fluid flow past a stretching sheet with particles–liquid suspension. The convective boundary condition is taken into account. Similarity transformations are utilized to reduce the nonlinear partial differential equations into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg scheme is used to get the numerical solution. Important parameters are analyzed through graphs and skin friction coefficient. Nusselt numbers are presented in tables. Investigation reveals that slip parameter decreases the velocity field and Biot number increases the temperature field.

In this work, we investigate the time-dependent MHD free convection of Casson fluid across a vertical semi-infinite plate fitted inside a permeable medium, along with viscous dissipation, radiation absorption, and Soret effect by using several non-dimensional variables. The characteristics of a variety of elements influencing the flow phenomenon are examined using the Casson fluid model. The governing dimensional partial differential equations are transformed into an ordinary differential equation set by introducing the similarity variables. The reduced model is numerically solved via the Galerkin finite element method. The non-dimensional equations with suitable boundary conditions can be mathematically simplified using the efficient Galerkin finite element approach. The restrictions are shown numerically and graphically, and their effects on temperature, velocity, species concentration, and rate coefficients are all shown. This study is to present the influence of radiation absorption along with viscous dissipation on the heat transfer phenomenon. For different flow parameter estimations, graphs are generated for various flow profiles as well as skin friction coefficients. The Nusselt (Nu) and Sherwood (Sh) quantities are also demonstrated via graphs.

This paper addresses the problem of steady two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) migration of dusty fluid across a stretching sheet with the inclusion of Darcy–Forchheimer porosity and Brownian dispersion. The most significant aspect of the ongoing problem is elaborating the entire context with dusty and fluid phases. The governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are transmuted into non-dimensional ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by implementing similarity transformations. The MATLAB script has used the bvp4c strategy to accumulate a visualization of the computational observations. Also, this study illustrates an assessment of the effects of significant parameters on non-Newtonian fluids and fluids with a dusty phase. It is observed that the thermal boundary layer is enhanced with the increasing strength of the mass concentration of dusty granules (${\mathrm{\Gamma }}_{\nu }$) and Eckert number (Ec) for both scenarios, while in the case of fluid interaction temperature parameter (${\beta }_t$) the scenario is opposite for dusty and fluid phases. Moreover, the heat transfer rate intensifies with the increasing effect of thermal radiation, and magnetic field. The significant variations in the various physical quantities are represented through tabular and graphs.

We are examining a mathematical model of second-grade Casson fluid flow over a Riga surface. This analysis takes into account the effects of heat generation on a second-grade Casson fluid. Additionally, we have discussed the impacts of Soret and Dufour in the presence of thermal radiation. The study also includes an analysis of the influences of thermal and concentration slip. By considering these factors in the fluid flow, we have constructed a set of partial differential equations. Furthermore, these differential equations have been transformed into dimensionless ordinary differential equations. We have presented the influences of relevant parameters through tables and graphs. Velocity curve reveals declining behavior due to larger values of magnetic field factor. A high magnetic field coefficient means a strong magnetic field. As a result, the force acting on the charged particle increases, causing it to slow down or change direction. This change in force can cause the particle’s velocity to decrease.

Ferro hybrid nanofluids can be used in electronics and microelectronics cooling applications to reduce heat accumulation and efficiently remove surplus heat. These nanofluids aid to maintain optimum operating temperatures and reduce device overheating by enhancing the heat transfer rate. With this motivation, the aim of the present numerical analysis is to study the three-dimensional incompressible hybrid nanofluid flow over a slippery Riga surface by combining the Casson fluid model. Mathematical modeling is constructed with nanoparticles as Fe₃O₄ and CoFe₂O₄ with base fluid as water. The non-uniform heat source/sink and thermal linear radiation effects are taken into account with the Hamilton–Crosser thermal conductivity model. A system of nonlinear PDEs is produced by the proposed problem and then the relevant similarity variables are implemented to transform the set of partial differential equations and their accompanying boundary conditions into the coupled nonlinear differential equations with one independent variable. These modified ordinary differential equations (ODEs) were then successfully solved with the Runge–Kutta fourth-order method by combining via the shooting technique. With the aid of graphical representations, the effects of various influencing parameters were presented and analyzed comprehensively. Furthermore, the impacts of relevant parameters on heat transfer rates and shear stress are concisely discussed and illustrated in tabular forms. The significant findings include the enhancement of the radiation parameter increases the thermal boundary layer thickness and the thickness increases whenever surface experiences slippery conditions. The axial and transverse momentum of the fluid are controlled with the Casson parameter. An effective connection is noticed once the current numerical solutions are verified under particular conditions that were previously described.

This research examines the flow of incompressible Casson fluid with gyrotactic microorganisms and thermophoretic particle deposition across a sheet, incorporating a nonlinear heat source and the convective boundary conditions. Our motivation stems from the need to optimize heat transfer in renewable energy systems and improve thermal regulation in aerospace engineering, which could inform advancements in heat shield design. The impact of this study extends to renewable energy, aiding heat transfer optimization, and in aerospace engineering, it may inform heat shield design. Medical imaging, chemical engineering and environmental remediation benefit from insights into the fluid behavior and particle transport. Based on heat source and thermophoretic particle deposition, this work investigates the concentration, temperature flow and microorganism distributions. Using suitable similarity variables, all equations for the proposed flow are converted into ODEs. The reduced equations are evaluated using the RKF45 method. The impacts of significant parameters on temperature, concentration, microbiological and flow profiles are determined with the support of graphs. The thermal and concentration distributions are improved with an increase in the thermal radiation, heat generation and magnetic parameter. This study enhances knowledge across disciplines including healthcare diagnostics, chemical engineering and ecological restoration by offering fresh perspectives on the dynamics of fluid movement and the transportation of particles.

This work investigates the Casson ternary hybrid nanofluid flow on a dual-directional elongating surface with variable porosity. The flow is affected by chemical reactivity, exponential heat source and thermally radiative effects. To control the thermal feature of flow, the impacts of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are also incorporated in the flow model along with Cattaneo–Christov mass/heat flux phenomena. Appropriate variables have been employed to convert the leading equations to dimension-free form and then solved by using the bvp4c approach. It has been noticed as an outcome of this work that, with the upsurge in magnetic and variable porous factors, both the primary and secondary velocities have been diminished. Augmentation in thermal profiles is caused by the escalation in radiation, thermophoresis, Brownian motion factors and thermal Biot number while it has reduced with the upsurge in thermal relaxation factor. Concentration distribution has increased by the growth in thermophoresis, activation energy factors and concentration Biot number, whereas it has diminished with escalation in Brownian motion, chemical reactivity and mass relaxation factors. Moreover, concentration distribution also declined with a higher Schmidt number. To ensure the validation of the current model, its results have been compared with previously established datasets available in the literature. A closed agreement between our results and the dataset published previously has been noticed, which ensures the authenticity of the current work.
