The various applications of squeezing flow between two parallel surfaces such as those that are evident in manufacturing industries, polymer processing, compression, power transmission, lubricating system, food processing, and cooling amongst others call for further study on the effects of various parameters on the flow phenomena. In the present study, effects of nanoparticle geometry, slip, and temperature jump conditions on thermo-magneto-solutal squeezing flow of nanofluid between two parallel disks embedded in a porous medium are investigated, analyzed, and discussed. Similarity variables are used to transform the developed governing systems of nonlinear partial differential equations to systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Homotopy perturbation method is used to solve the systems of the nonlinear ordinary differential equations. In order to verify the accuracy of the developed analytical solutions, the results of the homotopy perturbation method are compared with the results of the numerical method using the shooting method coupled with the fourth-order Runge–Kutta, and good agreements are established. Through the approximate analytical solutions, parametric studies are carried out to investigate the effects of nanoparticle size and shape, Brownian motion parameter, nanoparticle parameter, thermophoresis parameter, Hartmann number, Lewis number and pressure gradient parameters, slip, and temperature jump boundary conditions on thermo-solutal and hydromagnetic behavior of the nanofluid. This study will enhance and advance the understanding of nanofluidics such as energy conservation, friction reduction, and micromixing of biological samples.

In this current work, the heat transfer analysis for the unsteady squeezing flow of a viscous nanofluid between two parallel plates considering Fourier heat flux model have been explored. The partial differential equations representing flow model are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by introducing a similarity transformation. The dimensionless and nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the velocity and temperatures functions obtained are solved by employing The Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The results found in this peper are verified by comparing it with the results obtained using the numerical method RK4, The results obtained are agree with this numerical solution. The effects of different parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles are examined graphically, and numerical calculations for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are tabulated. It is found an excellent agreement in the comparative study with literature results.

We propose He’s homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to solve stiff systems of ordinary differential equations. This method is very simple to be implemented. HPM is employed to compute an approximation or analytical solution of the stiff systems of linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations.

Homotopy perturbation method is combined with Laplace transformation to obtain approximate analytical solutions of non-linear differential equations. An example is given to elucidate the solution process and confirm reliability of the method. The result indicates superiority of the method over the conventional homotopy perturbation method due its flexibility in choosing its initial approximation.

In this current work, the heat transfer analysis for the unsteady squeezing magnetohydrodynamic flow of a viscous nanofluid between two parallel plates in the presence of thermal radiation, viscous and magnetic dissipations impacts, considering Fourier heat flux model have been explored. The partial differential equations representing flow model are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations by introducing a similarity transformation. The dimensionless and nonlinear ordinary differential equations of the velocity and temperatures functions obtained are solved by employing the homotopy perturbation method. The effects of different parameters on the velocity and temperature profiles are examined graphically, and numerical calculations for the skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number are tabulated. It is found an excellent agreement in the comparative study with literature results. This present numerical exploration has great relevance, consequently a better understanding of the squeezing flow phenomena in the hydraulic lifts, power transmission, nano gastric tubes, reactor fluidization areas.

The analysis of Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) for the solution of fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) is presented. A unified convergence theorem is given. In order to validate the theory, the solution of fractional-order Burger-Poisson (FBP) equation is obtained. Furthermore, this work presents the method to find the solution of FPDEs, while the same partial differential equation (PDE) with ordinary derivative i.e., for α = 1 , is not defined in the given domain. Moreover, HPM is applied to a complicated obstacle boundary value problem (BVP) of fractional order.
