An exact analysis of heat and mass transfer past an oscillating vertical plate with Newtonian heating is presented. Equations are modelled and solved for velocity, temperature, and concentration using Laplace transforms. The obtained solutions satisfy governing equations and conditions. Expressions of skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are obtained and presented in tabular forms. The results show that increasing the Newtonian heating parameter leads to increase velocity and temperature distributions whereas skin friction decreases and rate of heat transfer increases.

This study investigates the unsteady heat transfer flow of a non-Newtonian Casson fluid over an oscillating vertical plate with Newtonian heating on the wall under the effects of thermal radiation. With the help of non-dimensional variables, governing equations are written into dimensionless form and then solved analytically by Laplace transform technique to find the solutions of temperature and velocity. The corresponding solutions of Nusselt number and skin friction are also calculated. The solution in term of viscous fluid is recovered as a limiting case of this work. The effects of the pertinent parameters on temperature and velocity are presented graphically and discussed details in this paper.

AbstractAn investigation of unsteady hydromagnetic natural convection heat and mass transfer flow of an electrically conducting, viscous, incompressible and optically thick radiating fluid past an impulsively moving infinite vertical plate embedded in a uniform porous medium in a rotating system with Hall effects in the presence of homogeneous first order chemical reaction is carried out when temperature of the plate has a temporarily ramped profile. Exact solution of the governing equations is obtained in closed form by Laplace transform technique. Expressions for skin friction due to primary and secondary flows and Nusselt number are derived for both ramped temperature and isothermal plates. Expression for Sherwood number is also derived. The numerical values of primary and secondary fluid velocities, fluid temperature and species concentration are displayed graphically whereas those of skin friction are presented in tabular form for various values of pertinent flow parameters. In order to highlight the influence of ramped temperature distribution within the plate on the flow-field, the fluid flow past a ramped temperature plate is compared with the one past an isothermal plate.

An exact solution to the problem of MHD transient free convection and mass transfer flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting fluid past a suddenly started infinite vertical plate taking into account the thermal diffusion as well as the thermal radiation is presented. Assuming the medium to be nonscattered and the fluid to be nongray, emitting–absorbing, and optically thin radiation limit properties, the equations governing the flow and heat and mass transfer are solved by Laplace transform technique. The expressions for the velocity field, the concentration field, the skin friction at the plate in the direction of the flow, and the coefficient of heat transfer and mass transfer from the plate to the fluid have been obtained, and their numerical values for different values of the physical parameters involved in the problem have been demonstrated in graphs and tables, and these are physically interpreted. It is found that the thermal radiation retards the fluid flow whereas the Soret effect accelerates the flow. The viscous drag on the plate is increased under the Soret and magnetic field effects whereas the thermal radiation reduces the skin friction. Further, the rate of heat transfer at the plate increases under thermal radiation effect. Also, in the presence of radiation, the Soret effect results in a steady increase in the mass flux from the fluid to the plate.

AbstractWe study the boundary layer characteristics of heat and mass transfer flow past a vertical wedge in the presence of thermal radiation. The surface temperature and the species concentration are assumed to be oscillating in the magnitude but not in the direction of oncoming flow velocity. The governing equations have been solved by two distinct methods, namely, the straightforward finite difference method for the entire frequency range, and the series solution for the low frequency range and the asymptotic series expansion method for the high frequency range. Numerical solutions have been presented in terms of the amplitudes and phase angles of the skin friction, the rate of heat transfer and the mass transfer with the variations of Richardson’s number, the Prandtl number, the conduction–radiation parameter, the surface temperature parameter and the Schmidt number. Furthermore, the effects of these parameters are examined in terms of the transient skin friction, heat transfer and mass transfer.

Unsteady hydromagnetic natural convection boundary layer flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting dusty fluid past an impulsively moving vertical plate with ramped temperature in the presence of thermal radiation and transverse magnetic field is studied. Exact solutions of the governing equations for fluid and particle velocities and fluid and particle temperatures are obtained in closed form by Laplace transform technique. To compare the results obtained in this case with that of an isothermal plate, exact solutions of the governing equations are also obtained for an isothermal plate. The expressions for the skin friction and Nusselt number are also derived for both ramped temperature and isothermal plates. Numerical values of fluid and particle velocities and fluid and particle temperatures are displayed graphically for various values of pertinent flow parameters for both ramped temperature and isothermal plates, whereas numerical values of skin friction and Nusselt number for both ramped temperature and isothermal plates are presented in tabular form for pertinent flow parameters.

An exact analysis of the effects of mass transfer on the Stokes’ (also Rayleigh’s) problem for an infinite vertical plate has been presented on taking into account the free-convection currents. It has been observed that there is a rise in the velocity due to the presence of a foreign mass. But an increase in Sc (<1), Schmidt number, leads to a fall in the velocity. The skin-friction increases due to the presence of a foreign mass and Sc< 1, but it decreases at Sc = 1.

This paper investigates the unsteady hydromagnetic-free convection of an incompressible electrical conducting Boussinesq’s radiating fluid past a moving vertical plate in an optically thin environment with the Navier slip, viscous dissipation, and Ohmic and Newtonian heating. The nonlinear partial differential equations governing the transient problem are obtained and tackled numerically using a semidiscretization finite difference method coupled with Runge-Kutta Fehlberg integration technique. Numerical data for the local skin friction coefficient and the Nusselt number have been tabulated for various values of parametric conditions. Graphical results for the fluid velocity, temperature, skin friction, and the Nusselt number are presented and discussed. The results indicate that the skin friction coefficient decreases while the heat transfer rate at the plate surface increases as the slip parameter and Newtonian heating increase.

Abstract Heat and mass transfer are investigated numerically with steady-state laminar natural convection through a vertical cylindrical enclosure filled with a liquid-saturated porous medium. The vertical wall is under a constant magnetic field and various durations of periodic heating boundary condition; the top and bottom surfaces are kept at a constant cold temperature. Continuity, momentum, and energy equations are transformed to dimensionless equations. The finite difference approach with the line successive over-relaxation (LSOR) method is used to obtain the computational results. This study covers the heat transfer, the temperature distribution, and the velocity field in the domain under the variation of different parameters. The code used is validated by modifying it to analyze the Nusselt number in the existing experimental literature of Izadpanah et al. (1998, “Experimental and Theoretical Studies of Convective Heat Transfer in a Cylindrical Porous Medium,” Int. J. Heat Fluid Flow, 19(6), pp. 629–635). This work shows that Nusselt number decreases (with varying gradient) as the aspect ratio increases, and that it increases as the Rayleigh number increases. The centerline temperature has a proportional relationship with the heating amplitude and the heating period (as the system receives more heat) and is inversely proportional with Rayleigh number. Increasing the Rayleigh number causes increased convective velocity, which affects the position of the hot region, and causes a decrease in the temperature field. Increasing the aspect ratio results in a warm stream at the center of the cylinder, and when the time period of the heating increases, the circulation becomes faster and the intensity of the temperature contour layers decreases. In this work, a correlation for Nu as a function of the mentioned parameters is developed.

This paper studies the effects of heat generation and chemical reaction on the coupled conjugate heat and mass transfer by MHD laminar mixed convective flow along a vertical slender hollow cylinder. The governing boundary layer equations along with the boundary conditions are first cast into a dimensionless form by a non similar transformation and the resulting equations are then solved by the finite difference method using Matlab@ following the code bvp4c. Numerical results of the velocity, temperature and concentration for different values of the conjugate heat transfer parameter p, the magnetic parameter M, the heat generation Q, and the chemical reaction K are studied. The local skin friction, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are also analyzed and presented graphically. In the numerical ranges of the main parameters, it is found mainly that working with strong conjugate heat transfer or/and all others parameters affects negatively the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. The same trend is revealed for the skin friction factor.
