Thermal-Diffusion and Diffusion-Thermo Effects on Heat and Mass Transfer in Chemically Reacting MHD Casson Nanofluid with Viscous Dissipation
In this paper, we examined the combined effects of dissipation and chemical reaction in Casson nanofluid motion through a vertical porous plate subjected to the magnetic field effect placed perpendicular to the flow channel. The physical problem is modeled using partial differential equations (PDEs). These sets of PDEs, with suitable similarity transformations, are simplified into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Collocation technique with legendary basis function is utilized in solving the transformed equations. The numerical analysis on velocity, concentration, and temperature are plotted and tabled for different flow parameters. Our findings show that by raising the Casson parameter close to infinity, the behavior of Casson fluid obeys the law of viscosity. Conversion of energy via the work done by the fluid molecules, influences both dimensionless velocity and temperature profiles significantly, while the mass flux hikes the concentration profile. The heat generated by the intermolecular reaction of fluid particles resulted in a large amount of heat produced in the flow field
Thermophysical impact on the squeezing motion of non-Newtonian fluid with quadratic convection, velocity slip, and convective surface conditions between parallel disks
The present paper considers suction/injection, constant and variable thermophysical influence in squeezing flow of magnetized blood rheological (Casson) fluid model between two parallel disks subjected to nonlinear convection process, slip and convective surface conditions. The unsteady, squeezing, magnetized, and chemically reacting dissipative fluid flowing between parallel disks is modeled and non-dimensionalized via an applicable similarity transformation. An approximate solution of the flow distributions is sought by employing the Chebyshev Collocation Approach (CCA). In the limiting scenario, an excellent agreement in the present results with the existing literature is obtained. The analysis reveals the dominance of constant thermophysical effect over the variable thermo-properties on velocities and temperature field. Higher thermal/solutal Biot number highlighted the dominance of positive squeezing number while its minimal values showcase the dominance of negative squeezing number on flow and energy field. Therein, the squeezing effect remains invariant for some range values of thermal/solutal Biot number, while a rise in velocity slip and suction parameter enhanced the fluid velocities and concentration profiles respectively. Moreover, the current analysis is applicable in moving engines such as in parallel disk gate valve, locomotion of piston in ring where oil is viewed as Casson fluid, thermoforming, injection molding, biomedical use among others
