No thermal process, even the biological systems, can escape from the long arms of the second law. All living things preserve entropy since they obtain energy from the nutrition they consume and gain order by producing disorder. The entropy generation in a biological and thermally isolated system is the main subject of current investigation. The aim is to examine the entropy generation during the convective transport of a ciliated nano-liquid in a micro-channel under the effect of a uniform magnetic field. Joint effects of electroosmosis and thermal radiation are also brought into consideration. To attain mathematical simplicity, the governing equations are transformed to wave frame where the inertial parts of the transport equations are dropped with the use of a long-wavelength approximation. This finally produces the governing equations in the form of ordinary differential equations which are solved numerically by a shooting technique. The analysis reports that the cilia motion contributes to enhance the flow and heat transfer phenomena. An enhancement in the flow is observed near the channel surface for higher cilia length and for smaller values of the electroosmotic parameter. The entropy generation in the ciliated channel is observed to be lessened by intensifying the thermal radiation and decreasing the Ohmic heating. The extended and flexible cilia structure contributes to augment the volumetric flow rate and to drop the total entropy generation in the channel.

The present investigation addressed the entropy generation, fluid flow, and heat transfer regarding Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water hybrid nanofluids into a complex shape enclosure containing a hot-half partition were addressed. The sidewalls of the enclosure are made of wavy walls including cold isothermal temperature while the upper and lower surfaces remain insulated. The governing equations toward conservation of mass, momentum, and energy were introduced into the form of partial differential equations. The second law of thermodynamic was written for the friction and thermal entropy productions as a function of velocity and temperatures. The governing equations occurred molded into a non-dimensional pattern and explained through the finite element method. Outcomes were investigated for Cu-water, Al 2 O 3 -water, and Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water nanofluids to address the effect of using composite nanoparticles toward the flow and temperature patterns and entropy generation. Findings show that using hybrid nanofluid improves the Nusselt number compared to simple nanofluids. In the case of low Rayleigh numbers, such enhancement is more evident. Changing the geometrical aspects of the cavity induces different effects toward the entropy generation and Bejan number. Generally, the global entropy generation for Cu-Al 2 O 3 -water hybrid nanofluid takes places between the entropy generation values regarding Cu-water and Al 2 O 3 -water nanofluids.

We investigated the influence of heat and mass transfer on the peristaltic flow of magnetohydrodynamic Eyring-Powell fluid under low Reynolds number and long-wavelength approximation. The fluid flows between two infinite cylinders; the inner tube is uniform, rigid, and rest, while the outer flexible tube has a sinusoidal wave traveling down its wall. The governing equations are solved numerically using finite-difference technique. The velocity, temperature, and concentration distribution are obtained. The features of flow characteristics are analyzed by plotting graphs and discussed in detail.

A mathematical model is developed to examine the behaviors of a peristalsis flow with nanoparticles in a symmetric channel under the magnetic environment. Here, the nanofluid is electrically conducted through an external magnetic field. Thermal radiation and Joule heating effects are also retained in the present analysis. Under the lubrication approach, the reduced nonlinear systems are obtained. Then, they are solved very efficiently by means of a homotopy analysis method-based package BVPh 2.0. The influences of important physical parameters on the flow behaviors are presented. Analysis of the entropy generation is illustrated. It is found that the Brownian diffusion and the thermophoresis are the two most important nanoparticle slip mechanisms in the Jeffery fluids as well. Besides, the Hartman number, the type of the Jeffery fluid, the Brinkman number, and the thermal radiation parameter play important roles on flow behaviors. Results show that the temperature profile enhanced but the nanoparticles’ volume fraction profiles lowered with increase in the Hartman number. However, using the Jeffery nanofluid induces effect on the velocity distribution that decreases with the increase in the Jeffery fluid parameter. It is also found that the generated total entropy increases with an increase in the Brownian motion parameter but with a decrease in the thermophoresis parameter.

This investigation introduces a mathematical model of entropy generation for Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic wave of nanofluid. The governing equations have been created by the supposition of low Reynolds number and long wavelength estimation. The scientific arrangement has been procured with the help of perturbation technique. The concentration profile, temperature profile, pressure distribution and friction forces are shown graphically for some important parameters. Further, the eventual outcomes of connection between the entropy generation and some various parameters have been plotted by means of correlation and regression. It is fundamental to find the affectability of each parameter on entropy generation.

AbstractThis study deals with the entropy generation in magnetized blood flow through a channel. The blood is modeled as a non-Newtonian fluid that circulates by a uniform peristaltic wave with slip at the boundaries. An inertia free flow is considered using an approximation of the long-wavelength peristaltic wave. The governing equations of the flow are formulated and numerically solved using computational software to identify the characteristics of this non-uniform and time-dependent flow system. In addition, several closed-form solutions of the problem are explicitly presented.

AbstractIn this paper, we studied the peristaltic flow and heat transfer of an incompressible, electrically conducting Bingham Non-Newtonian fluid in an eccentric uniform annulus in the presence of external uniform magnetic field with slip velocity and temperature jump at the wall conditions. The viscous and Joule dissipations are taken into account. The inner tube is rigid and moving with a constant axial velocity, while the outer tube has a sinusoidal wave traveling down its wall. Under zero Reynolds number condition with the long wavelength approximation, the axial velocity and the stream function are obtained analytically. A numerical solution for the governing partial differential equation of energy is performed in order to analyze the temperature distribution. The effects of all parameters of the problem are numerically discussed and graphically explained.

The presented communication provides the analysis of entropy generation and heat transport rate in peristalsis of hybrid nanofluid induced by metachronal ciliary beating under magnetic environment for sufficiently large magnetic Reynolds number. Nanoparticles of Cu and Al2O3 are suspended in water. Features of their structures are determined by using long-wavelength approximation with zero Reynolds number. Adams Bashforth method has been applied to compute the results of the flow variables as well as entropy generation number from the formulated differential system which are then interpreted graphically to establish physical significance for different values of physical interest. This investigation reveals that thermal performance of fluid can be boosted by utilizing hybrid nanomaterial about the strength of a wall for stability. Irreversibility analysis ensures that entropy reduced for strong magnetic field while thermal heat generation results in an increase in temperature causing an enhancement in entropy of the system. Error analysis has been performed with reasonably accurate tolerance level. The comparative outcomes of both numerical approaches are presented with plentiful graphical as well as numerical demonstrations which demonstrate the importance in terms of robustness, accuracy and stability.
