Abstract In this paper, a numerical study of MHD steady flow due to the rotating disk with chemical reaction was explored. Effect of different parameters such as Schmidt number, chemical reaction parameter, Prandtl number, Suction parameter, heat absorption/generation parameter, Nano-particle concentration, Reynold number, Magnetic parameter, skin friction, shear stress, temperature distribution, Nusselt number, mass transfer rate, radial velocity, axial velocity, and tangential velocity was analyzed and discussed. For the simplification of non-linear partial differential equations (PDEs) into the nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODEs), the method of Similarity transformation was employed, and the resulting partial differential equation was solved by using finite difference method through MATLAB programming. This work's remarkable finding is that with the expansion of nanoparticle concentration radial velocity, tangential velocity and temperature of the fluid was enhanced but reverse reaction for axial velocity. Furthermore, the present results are found to be in excellent agreement with previously published work.

A three-dimensional numerical study on the flow and heat transfer characteristics over a rotating disk with bottom wall subjected to uniform heat flux was conducted with the use of RNG k- turbulent model. And some experiments were also made for validation. The effects of rotating angular speed and pin configuration on the temperature maps and convective heat transfer characte-ristics on rotating surface are analyzed. As the increase of rotating velocity, the impingement of pumping jet on the centre of rotating disk became stronger and the transition from laminar to turbu-lent occurred at the outer radius of rotating disk, which resulted in heat transfer enhancement. The pins on the disk made the pumping action of a rotating disk weaker. Simultaneously, they also acted as disturbing elements to the cyclone flow near the rotating disk surface, which made the overall heat transfer to be enhanced. Under the same extend areas of different pins, needle pin has higher convective heat transfer capacity than the discrete ring pin.

Buongiorno Model

Purpose The purpose of the present study is to explore a three-dimensional rotating flow of water-based nanofluids caused by an infinite rotating disk. Design/methodology/approach Mathematical formulation is performed using the well-known Buongiorno model which accounts for the combined influence of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The recently suggested condition of passively controlled wall nanoparticle volume fraction has been adopted. Findings The results reveal that temperature decreases with an increase in thermophoresis parameter, whereas it is negligibly affected with a variation in the Brownian motion parameter. Axial velocity is negative because of the downward flow in the vertical direction. Originality/value Two- and three-dimensional streamlines are also sketched and discussed. The computations are found to be in very good agreement with the those of existing studies in the literature for pure fluid.

Boundary Curves

A numerical study of the axisymmetric flow in a cylindrical chamber of height H is presented, which is driven by a bottom disk rotating at angular velocity Ω. However, unlike most previous studies, the present rotating disk is of smaller radius than the bottom-wall. The boundary curves for the onset of vortex breakdown are presented using different definitions of the nondimensional parameters, depending on whether the cylinder radius R or the disk radius rd is used as the length scale. The study shows that the boundary curves are best correlated when presented in terms of the Reynolds number Ωrd2∕υ, aspect ratio H∕R, and cylinder-to-disk ratio R∕rd. The cylinder-to-disk ratio R∕rd up to 1.6 is found to have noticeable effect on vortex breakdown; this is attributed to the change of effective aspect ratio. The contours of streamline, angular momentum, and azimuthal vorticity are presented and compared with those of whole bottom-wall rotation.

Maximum Temperature Difference

A numerical study has been earned out to investigate the fluid flow structure and convective heat transfer due to a circular jet impinging on a rotating disk. The temperature distribution and convection heat transfer coefficient on the disk are calculated. Flow is considered to be steady, incompressible and turbulent. k-ε RNG model is used to model the turbulent flow. Two new criteria are introduced and used to evaluate the performance of cooling process which are maximum temperature difference on the disk and the average temperature of the disk. The first parameter shows the uniformity of temperature distribution in the disk and the second shows the effect of both thermo physical properties of the disk material and cooling process. In order to verify the numerical approach, results have been compared with the experimental data which shows a good agreement.
