The aim of the present study is to address the impacts of Newtonian heating and homogeneous–heterogeneous (h-h) reactions on the flow of Ag–H2O nanofluid over a cylinder which is stretched in a nonlinear way. The additional effects of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and nonlinear thermal radiation are also added features of the problem under consideration. The Shooting technique is betrothed to obtain the numerical solution of the problem which is comprised of highly nonlinear system ordinary differential equations. The sketches of different parameters versus the involved distributions are given with requisite deliberations. The obtained numerical results are matched with an earlier published work and an excellent agreement exists between both. From our obtained results, it is gathered that the temperature profile is enriched with augmented values radiation and curvature parameters. Additionally, the concentration field is a declining function of the strength of h-h reactions.

This work examines the effects of non-linear thermal radiation and Joule heating on MHD three-dimensional visco-elastic nanofluid flow due to a surface stretching in lateral directions. A coupled nonlinear differential system is generated from the boundary layer equations by using self-similarity variables and is then solved numerically by using most powerful shooting technique with Runge Kutta method of fourth order. The computational results for the flow variables are plotted graphically and are discussed in detail for various governing parameters that emerged in the analysis. It is observed that the momentum of the visco elastic nanofluid is better than that of a viscous fluid. Thicker thermal and concentration boundary layers are formed for increasing nonlinear thermal radiation and temperature ratio parameters. Also the results are in very good agreement with the outcomes available in the literature as a particular case. This model may play a significant role in the field of manufacturing and engineering applications.

In this study we investigated the effect of nonlinear thermal radiation on magnetohydrodynamic flow between horizontal rotating plates in the presence of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions. By making use of the appropriate similarity transformations, the equations which govern the flow are reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Further, these equations are solved numerically using the Runge-Kutta based shooting technique. Also, the effects of various pertinent parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration profiles along with the friction factor, local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are discussed and presented with the help of graphs and tables. We found an excellent agreement of the present results with the existed literature under some special limited cases. Results indicate that concentration profiles are highly influenced by the homogeneous-heterogeneous parameters. Nonlinear thermal radiation have tendency to enhance the thermal boundary layer thickness.

AbstractPresent research article reports the magnetized impacts of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion models on heat and mass transfer behaviour of viscous incompressible, time-dependent, two-dimensional Casson nanofluid flow through the channel with Joule heating and viscous dissipation effects numerically. The classical transport models such as Fourier and Fick’s laws of heat and mass diffusions are generalized in terms of Cattaneo-Christov double diffusion models by accounting the thermal and concentration relaxation times. The present physical problem is examined in the presence of Lorentz forces to investigate the effects of magnetic field on double diffusion process along with Joule heating. The non-Newtonian Casson nanofluid flow between two parallel plates gives the system of time-dependent, highly nonlinear, coupled partial differential equations and is solved by utilizing RK-SM and bvp4c schemes. Present results show that, the temperature and concentration distributions are fewer in case of Cattaneo-Christov heat and mass flux models when compared to the Fourier’s and Fick’s laws of heat and mass diffusions. The concentration field is a diminishing function of thermophoresis parameter and it is an increasing function of Brownian motion parameter. Finally, an excellent comparison between the present solutions and previously published results show the accuracy of the results and methods used to achieve the objective of the present work.
