The colloidal analysis for H2O and EG (Ethylene Glycol) by considering the influence of radiative heat flux and viscous dissipation is not performed so far. This study is performed to fill up this gap. Therefore, the flow of water and ethylene glycol functionalized magnetite nanoparticles over a moving wedge is examined. For thermal enhancement, two different magnetite nanoparticles, namely CoFe 2 O 4 (Cobalt ferrite) and Mn − ZnFe 2 O 4 ( Mn − Zn ferrite), diluted in the base fluids. Self-similar flow model of a nonlinear nature, containing the volume fraction of nanoparticles is obtained by using compatible similarity variables. For mathematical treatment of the model, the Runge-Kutta scheme is utilized, coupled with shooting techniques. The results for flow characteristics and significant physical parameters are graphically examined. A comprehensive comparative analysis has been made, which proved the reliability of the study.

In this article, ethylene glycol (EG) + waterbased Maxwell nanofluid with radiation and Soret effects within two parallel plates has been investigated. The problem is formulated in the form of partial differential equations. The dimensionless governing equations for concentration, energy, and momentum are generalized by the fractional molecular diffusion, thermal flux, and shear stress defined by the Caputo–Fabrizio time fractional derivatives. The solutions of the problems are obtained via Laplace inversion numerical algorithm, namely, Stehfest’s. Nanoparticles of silver (Ag) are suspended in a mixture of EG + water to have a nanofluid. It is observed that the thermal conductivity of fluid is enhanced by increasing the values of time and volume fraction. The temperature and velocity of water-silver nanofluid are higher than those of ethylene glycol (EG) + water (H2O)-silver (Ag) nanofluid. The results are discussed at 2% of volume fraction. The results justified the thermo-physical characteristics of base fluids and nanoparticles shown in the tables. The effects of major physical parameters are illustrated graphically and discussed in detail.

Modeling of acoustic propagation in a duct with absorbing treatment is considered. The surface impedance of the treatment is sought in the form of a rational fraction. The numerical model is based on a resolution of the linearized Euler equations by finite difference time domain for the calculation of the acoustic propagation under a grazing flow. Sensitivity analysis of the considered numerical model is performed. The uncertainty of the physical parameters is taken into account to determine the most influential input parameters. The robustness of the solution vis-a-vis changes of the flow characteristics and the propagation medium is studied.

AbstractThe present work used fractional model of Casson fluid by utilizing a generalized Fourier’s Law to construct Caputo Fractional model. A porous medium containing nanofluid flowing in a channel is considered with free convection and electrical conduction. A novel transformation is applied for energy equation and then solved by using integral transforms, combinedly, the Fourier and Laplace transformations. The results are shown in form of Mittag-Leffler function. The influence of physical parameters have been presented in graphs and values in tables are discussed in this work. The results reveal that heat transfer increases with increasing values of the volume fraction of nanoparticles, while the velocity of the nanofluid decreases with the increasing values of volume fraction of these particles.

AbstractThe current investigation aims to examine heat transfer as well as entropy generation analysis of Powell-Eyring nanofluid moving over a linearly expandable non-uniform medium. The nanofluid is investigated in terms of heat transport properties subjected to a convectively heated slippery surface. The effect of a magnetic field, porous medium, radiative flux, nanoparticle shapes, viscous dissipative flow, heat source, and Joule heating are also included in this analysis. The modeled equations regarding flow phenomenon are presented in the form of partial-differential equations (PDEs). Keller-box technique is utilized to detect the numerical solutions of modeled equations transformed into ordinary-differential equations (ODEs) via suitable similarity conversions. Two different nanofluids, Copper-methanol (Cu-MeOH) as well as Graphene oxide-methanol (GO-MeOH) have been taken for our study. Substantial results in terms of sundry variables against heat, frictional force, Nusselt number, and entropy production are elaborate graphically. This work’s noteworthy conclusion is that the thermal conductivity in Powell-Eyring phenomena steadily increases in contrast to classical liquid. The system’s entropy escalates in the case of volume fraction of nanoparticles, material parameters, and thermal radiation. The shape factor is more significant and it has a very clear effect on entropy rate in the case of GO-MeOH nanofluid than Cu-MeOH nanofluid.

AbstractThe current research explores incremental effect of thermal radiation on heat transfer improvement corresponds to Darcy–Forchheimer (DF) flow of carbon nanotubes along a stretched rotating surface using RSM. Casson carbon nanotubes’ constructed model in boundary layer flow is being investigated with implications of both single-walled CNTs and multi-walled CNTs. Water and Ethylene glycol are considered a basic fluid. The heat transfer rate is scrutinized via convective condition. Outcomes are observed and evaluated for both SWCNTs and MWCNTs. The Runge–Kutta Fehlberg technique of shooting is utilized to numerically solve transformed nonlinear ordinary differential system. The output parameters of interest are presumed to depend on governing input variables. In addition, sensitivity study is incorporated. It is noted that sensitivity of SFC via SWCNT-Water becomes higher by increasing values of permeability number. Additionaly, sensitivity of SFC via SWCNT-water towards the permeability number is higher than the solid volume fraction for medium and higher permeability levels. It is also noted that sensitivity of SFC (SWCNT-Ethylene-glycol) towards volume fraction is higher for increasing permeability as well as inertia coefficient. Additionally, the sensitivity of LNN towards the Solid volume fraction is higher than the radiation and Biot number for all levels of Biot number. The findings will provide initial direction for future device manufacturing.

The assumptions that form our focus in this study are water or water-ethylene glycol flowing around a horizontal cylinder, containing hybrid nanoparticles, affected by a magnetic force, and under a constant wall temperature, in addition to considering free convection. The Tiwari–Das model is employed to highlight the influence of the nanoparticles volume fraction on the flow characteristics. A numerical approximate technique called the Keller box method is implemented to obtain a solution to the physical model. The effects of some critical parameters related to heat transmission are also graphically examined and analyzed. The increase in the nanoparticle volume fraction increases the heat transfer rate and liquid velocity; the strength of the magnetic field has an adverse effect on liquid velocity, heat transfer, and skin friction. We find that cobalt nanoparticles provide more efficient support for the heat transfer rate of aluminum oxide than aluminum nanoparticles.

Examination of flows in a particular case of dissimilar pumps coupled in series or in parallel (without check valves) showed that the ‘classical’ graphical solution of combined characteristics in the [+H, +Q] quadrant did not accord with the output field in certain regions. To predict the full flow fields, it was necessary to take into account dissipative flow characteristics in two other quadrants: for low-output parallel flow (when there is still flow available from the pump of higher head when the ‘weaker’ pump's flow has been reduced to zero), that in the [+H, –Q] quadrant; and for high series flow (after the output head of the pump of lower maximum flow has been reduced to zero), that in the [–H, +Q] quadrant. This problem does not arise when the pumps have identical characteristics.

Three products hydrocyclone screen (TPHS) can be considered as the combination of a conventional hydrocyclone and a cylindrical screen. In this device, particles are separated based on size under the centrifugal classification coupling screening effect. The objective of this work is to explore the characteristics of fluid flow in TPHS using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. The 2 million grid scheme, volume fraction model, and linear pressure–strain Reynolds stress model were utilized to generate the economical grid-independence solution. The pressure profile reveals that the distribution of static pressure was axisymmetric, and its value was reduced with the increasing axial depth. The maximum and minimum were located near the tangential inflection point of the feed inlet and the outlets, respectively. However, local asymmetry was created by the left tangential inlet and the right screen underflow outlet. Furthermore, at the same axial height, the static pressure gradually decreased along the wall to the center. Near the cylindrical screen, the pressure difference between the inside and the outside cylindrical screen dropped from positive to negative as the axial depth increased from −35 to −185 mm. Besides, TPHS shows similar distributions of turbulence intensity I, turbulence kinetic energy k, and turbulence dissipation rate ε; i.e., the values fell with the decrease in axial height. Meanwhile, from high to low, the pressure values are distributed in the feed chamber, the cylindrical screen, and conical vessel; the value inside the screen was higher than the outer value.

Melting Effect

This paper considers unsteady, laminar, boundary-layer flow with heat and mass transfer of a nanofluid along a horizontal stretching plate in the presence of a transverse magnetic field, melting and heat generation or absorption effects. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of non-similar equations and solved numerically by an efficient implicit, iterative, finite-difference method. A parametric study illustrating the influence of various physical parameters is performed. Numerical results for the steady-state velocity, temperature and nanoparticles volume fraction profiles as well as the time histories of the skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and the Sherwood number are presented graphically and discussed.
