Brownian motion and thermophoresis diffusions are the fundamental ideas of abnormal upgrading in thermal conductivity via binary fluids (base fluid along with nanoparticles). The influence of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are focused on in the Buongiorno model. In this problem, we considered the Buongiorno model with Brownian motion and thermophoretic effects. The nonlinear ordinary differential equations are recovered from the partial differential equations of the boundary flow via compatible similarity transformations and then employed to the Keller-box scheme for numerical results. The physical quantities of our concern including skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number along with velocity, temperature and concentration profile against involved effects are demonstrated. The impacts of the involved flow parameters are drawn in graphs and tabulated forms. The inclination effect shows an inverse relation with the velocity field. Moreover, the velocity profile increases with the growth of the buoyancy effect.

The prime aim of this paper is to probe the flow of micropolar nanofluid towards an inclined stretching surface adjacent to the stagnation region with Brownian motion and thermophoretic impacts. The chemical reaction and heat generation or absorption are also taken into account. The energy and mass transport of the micropolar nanofluid flow towards an inclined surface are discussed. The numerical solution is elucidated for the converted non-linear ordinary differential equation from the set of partial nonlinear differential equations via compatible similarity transformations. A converted system of ordinary differential equations is solved via the Keller-box scheme. The stretching velocity and external velocity are supposed to change linearly by the distance from the stagnation point. The impacts of involved parameters on the concerned physical quantities such as skin friction, Sherwood number, and energy exchange are discussed. These results are drawn through the graphs and presented in the tables. The energy and mass exchange rates show a direct relation with the stagnation point. In the same vein, skin friction diminishes with the growth of the stagnation factor. Heat and mass fluxes show an inverse correspondence with the inclination factor.

The principal objective of the current study is to analyze the Brownian motion and thermophoretic impacts on micropolar nanofluid flow over a nonlinear inclined stretching sheet taking into account the Soret and Dufour effects. The compatible similarity transformations are applied to obtain the nonlinear ordinary differential equations from the partial differential equations. The numerical solution of the present study obtained via the Keller-Box technique. The physical quantities of interest are skin friction, Sherwood number, and heat exchange, along with several influences of material parameters on the momentum, temperature, and concentration are elucidated and clarified with diagrams. A decent settlement can be established in the current results with previously published work in the deficiency of incorporating effects. It is found that the growth of the inclination and nonlinear stretching factor decreases the velocity profile. Moreover, the growth of the Soret effect reduces the heat flux rate and wall shear stress.

The water-based bioconvection of a nanofluid containing motile gyrotactic micro-organisms (moves under the effects of gravity) over a nonlinear inclined stretching sheet in the presence of a nonuniform magnetic field has been investigated. This regime is encountered in the bio-nanomaterial electroconductive polymeric processing systems currently being considered for third-generation organic solar coatings, anti-fouling marine coatings, etc. Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation along with ohmic dissipation (Joule heating) is considered in the problem. The governing equations of the flow are nonlinear partial differential equations and are converted into ordinary differential equations via similarity transformations. These equations are then solved by the Finite Element Method. The effect of various important parameters on nondimensional velocity, temperature distribution, nanoparticle concentration, the density of motile micro-organisms is analyzed graphically in detail. It is observed from the obtained results that the flow velocity decreases with rising angle of inclination [Formula: see text] while temperature, nanoparticle’s concentration and density of motile micro-organisms increase. The local skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, motile micro-organism’s density number are calculated. It is noticed that increasing the Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter leads to an increase in temperature of fluid which results in a reduction in Nusselt number. On the contrary, the Sherwood number rises with an increase in Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter. Also, interesting features of the flow dynamics are elaborated and new future pathways for extension of the study identified in bio-magneto-nano polymers (BMNPs) for solar coatings.

AbstractIn the present article, magneto-micropolar nanofluid flow with suction or injection in a porous medium over a stretching sheet for the heat and mass transfer is analyzed numerically. Both Hall and ion-slip effects are considered along with variable thermal diffusivity. The governing partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary differential equations using usual similarity transformations. These coupled non-linear differential equations are solved using the shooting method. Effects of prominent parameter on velocities, temperature and concentration are discussed graphically. Numerical values of skin-friction coefficient, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are also tabulated and discussed.

ABSTRACTThe effects of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on the natural convection heat transfer over a vertical plate embedded in a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid are investigated. In the nanofluid model, a gradient of nanoparticles concentration because of Brownian motion and thermophoresis forces is taken into account. The nanofluid viscosity and the thermal conductivity are assumed as a function of local nanoparticles volume fraction. The appropriate similarity variables are used to convert the governing partial differential equations into a set of highly coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations, and then, they numerically solved using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. The practical range of non- dimensional parameters is discussed. The results show that the range of Lewis number as well as Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters which were used in previous studies should be reconsidered. The effect of non-dimensional parameters on the boundary layer is examined. The results show that the reduced Nusselt number would increase with increase of viscosity parameter and would decrease with increase of thermal conductivity parameter.

The main purpose of the present analysis is to report the numerical solution of the thermal radiations and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effect on the flow of micropolar nanofluid. Further, the effect of Brownian motion and thermophoresis on the flow field are also elucidated. The combined phenomenon of heat and mass transfer is considered. Compatible similarities are implemented for the conversion of nonlinear ordinary differential equations from nonlinear partial differential equations. The numerical solution of the governing differential equations is obtained via the implicit Keller box technique. This is an efficient scheme based on the finite difference method. Findings demonstrate that the heat and mass exchange reduce with growth of the Brinkman parameter, whereas the wall shear stress enhances with improving the magnitude of the Brinkman factor. The temperature contour enhances when the radiation parameter reaches its peak, which is useful for industrial processes. The heat and mass flow rates decrease against higher magnitudes of inclination.

Brownian Motion And Thermophoresis

A model based on the works of Buongiorno, which includes the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis, is used to develop the governing equations for convection in nanofluids. The analysis includes examples with water and ethylene glycol as the base fluids and nanoparticles of Cu and Al2O3. An assumption of zero nanoparticle flux is used at the surface of the plate to make the model more physically realistic. The model accounts for the effects of both Brownian motion and thermophoresis in the mass boundary condition. Using suitable transformations, the governing partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations which are solved numerically. The dimensionless velocity, temperature, and concentration gradients are used in the second law analysis to determine heat and mass transfer rates. It is shown that the dimensionless entropy generation rate strongly depends upon the solid volume fraction of the nanoparticles, local Reynolds number, and group parameters.
