Steady Laminar

A boundary layer analysis is laid out for the steady, laminar, mixed convection flow past an isothermal vertical cone embedded in a porous medium filled with a nanofluid. The model used for the nanofluid is one which includes the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. A parametric study is performed for different physical parameters, such as magnetic (M), cone angle (m), mixed convection (χ), Brownian motion (Nt), and thermophoresis (Nb), on the velocity, temperature, and nanoparticle concentration profiles. The local Nusselt, Sherwood, and nanoparticle Sherwood number have been laid out in a graphical way. The dependency of the rate of heat and mass transfer on the governing parameters has been discussed.

Implicit Finite Difference

An analysis is performed to investigate the mixed convection flow over a vertical cone with an applied magnetic field when the axis of the cone is in line with the flow. The results have been obtained for assisting and opposing flows. The partial differential equations governing the non-similar flow have been solved by an implicit finite difference scheme in combination with the quasilinearization technique. Numerical results are reported here to account the effects of magnetic field in presence of buoyancy parameter at different stream wise locations on skin friction and heat transfer coefficients.
