Fluid Properties

We investigated heat and mass transfer on water based nanofluid due to the combined effects of homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions, an external magnetic field and internal heat generation. The flow is generated by the movement of a linearly stretched surface, and the nanofluid contains nanoparticles of copper and gold. Exact solutions of the transformed model equations were obtained in terms of hypergeometric functions. To gain more insights regarding subtle impact of fluid and material parameters on the heat and mass transfer characteristics, and the fluid properties, the equations were further solved numerically using the matlab bvp4c solver. The similarities and differences in the behavior, including the heat and mass transfer characteristics, of the copper–water and gold–water nanofluids with respect to changes in the flow parameters were investigated. Finally, we obtained the numerical values of the skin friction and heat transfer coefficients.

Heat Generation Or Absorption

In this paper, the effects of internal heat generation or absorption on free convection flow of a nanofluid past an isothermal inclined plate have been investigated numerically. The governing boundary-layer equations are first transformed into a system of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations using similarity variables. An efficient implicit finite-difference scheme known as the Keller-box method is employed to solve the resulting nonlinear equations. The effects of internal heat generation or absorption parameter on the flow fields have been presented graphically and discussed. It is found that the rate of heat transfer decreases with increasing heat generation, Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters whereas it increases with increasing heat absorption parameter and Prandtl number.
