This research endeavors the rheological features of Oldroyd-B fluid configured by infinite stretching disks in presence of velocity and thermal slip features. Additionally, the effects of homogeneous and heterogeneous chemical features are also considered. The transmuted flow equations are analytically solved with help of the homotopy analysis method (HAM). It is observed that the homogeneous chemical reaction parameter enhances the concentration distribution, while the heterogeneous reaction reduces the concentration profile. With implementations of temperature jump conditions, the heat transfer from the surfaces of both disks can be effectively controlled. The impacts of various dimensionless parameters are elaborated through graphs and tables.

AbstractIn this article, we discuss the flow and heat transfer of nanofluids over a rotating porous disk with velocity slip and temperature jump. Three types of nanoparticles – Cu, Al2O3, and CuO – are considered with water as the base fluid. The nonlinear governing equations are reduced into ordinary differential equations by Von Karman transformations and solved using homotopy analysis method (HAM), which is verified in good agreement with numerical ones. The effects of involved parameters such as porous parameter, velocity slip, temperature jump, as well as the types of nanofluids on velocity and temperature fields are presented graphically and analysed.

This paper presents an investigation for bioconvection heat transfer of a nanofluid containing gyrotactic microorganisms over a stretching sheet, in which the effects of radiation, velocity slip, and temperature jump are taken into account. The non-linear governing equations are reduced into four ordinary differential equations by similarity transformations and solved by homotopy analysis method, which is verified with numerical results in good agree. Results indicate that the density of motile microorganisms and gyrotactic microorganisms increase with bioconvection Rayleigh number, while decrease with increasing in bioconvection Peclet number and bioconvection Lewis number. It is also found that the Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and gyrotactic microorganisms density depend strongly on the buoyancy, nanofluids, and bioconvection parameters.

In this paper, Homotopy analysis method is applied to the nonlinear coupleddifferential equations of classical Boussinesq system. We have applied Homotopy analysis method (HAM) for the application problems in [1, 2, 3, 4]. We have also plotted Domb-Sykes plot for the region of convergence. We have applied Pade for the HAM series to identify the singularity and reflect it in the graph. The HAM is a analytical technique which is used to solve non-linear problems to generate a convergent series. HAM gives complete freedom to choose the initial approximation of the solution, it is the auxiliary parameter h which gives us a convenient way to guarantee the convergence of homotopy series solution. It seems that moreartificial degrees of freedom implies larger possibility to gain better approximations by HAM.

AbstractIn the current work, the unsteady thermal flow of Maxwell power-law nanofluid with Welan gum solution on a stretching surface has been considered. The flow is also exposed to Joule heating and magnetic effects. The Marangoni convection equation is also proposed for current investigation in light of the constitutive equations for the Maxwell power law model. For non-dimensionalization, a group of similar variables has been employed to obtain a set of ordinary differential equations. This set of dimensionless equations is then solved with the help of the homotopy analysis method (HAM). It has been established in this work that, the effects of momentum relaxation time upon the thickness of the film is quite obvious in comparison to heat relaxation time. It is also noticed in this work that improvement in the Marangoni convection process leads to a decline in the thickness of the fluid’s film.

Entropy generation in bioconvection two-dimensional steady incompressible non-Newtonian Oldroyd-B nanofluid with Cattaneo–Christov heat and mass flux theory is investigated. The Darcy–Forchheimer law is used to study heat and mass transfer flow and microorganisms motion in porous media. Using appropriate similarity variables, the partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations which are then solved by homotopy analysis method. For an insight into the problem, the effects of various parameters on different profiles are shown in different graphs.
