Casson fluid model along with microrotation is considered to model the governing flow problem. The system is assumed to undergo internal heating phenomenon. The governing physical problem is transformed into system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using scaling group of transformations. These equations are solved numerically using Runge Kutta Fehlberg scheme coupled with shooting technique. Influence of sundry parameters for the case of strong and weak concentration of microelements on velocity, temperature, skin friction and local heat flux at the surface are computed and discussed. Lower skin friction and heat flux is observed for the case of weak concentration(n = 0.5)compared to strong concentration of microelements(n = 0.0) near the wall.展开更多

The governing physical problem is modelled and transformed into a set of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations by suitable similarity transformation, which are solved numerically with the help of shooting method keeping the convergence control of 10^(-5) in computations. Influence of pertinent physical parameters on normal, tangential velocity profiles and temperature are expressed through graphs. Physical quantities of interest such as skin friction coefficients and local heat flux are investigated numerically.展开更多

Buongiorno model is utilized to study influence of thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects. A numerical procedure known as Keller box algorithm is used to solve the governed physical model.Graphically velocity, temperature and concentration of nanoparticles are expressed. Also, concerned physical measures such as heat and mass transfer are investigated numerically. The simulations performed revealed that fluid parameters play a significant role in heat transfer under Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects. Local heat flux is elevated while local mass flux is suppressed with enhancing Brownian motion parameter. Streamlines pattern exhibits that flow is more inclined in the presence of Deborah number effects. To the best of our knowledge, transverse flow of an Oldroyd-B type fluid which incorporates the thermal relaxation effects has never been reported before in the presence of Brownian motion and internal heating phenomenon. Therefore we intend to discuss these features in detail. The obtained results are a novel contribution, which can be benchmark for further relevant academic research related to polymer industry.展开更多
