Entropy Generation and Natural Convection Heat Transfer of (MWCNT/SWCNT) Nanoparticles around Two Spaced Spheres over Inclined Plates: Numerical Study

A numerical study is conducted to evaluate the steady natural convective heat transfer problem and entropy generation of both single wall (SWCNT) and multi wall (MWCNT) nanoparticles with water as a base liquid over two spaced spheres. The isothermally heated spheres are located between two plates of short length. The cooled plates are maintained at different inclination angles. A numerical approach based on the finite volume method and multigrid acceleration was used to solve the governing equations. The effects of nanoparticle type, volume fraction, the inclination angle of the plates and the Rayleigh numbers are well-considered. Results reveal that there is a remarkable enhancement of the average Nusselt number over the plates for MWCNT nanoparticles with 63.15% from the inclination angle 0° to 30°. Furthermore, optimal heat transfer rates over the plates for MWCNT nanoparticles equates to 1.9, which is obtained for the inclination 30° and a Rayleigh number of 10$^{6}$. However, for SWCNT nanoparticles, the same equates 0.9, which is obtained for the inclination 90° and a Rayleigh number of 10$^{6}$. The comprehensive analysis is presented under some well-defined assumptions which show the reliability of the present investigation

Numerical Simulation of Magnetic Dipole Flow Over a Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Non-Uniform Heat Source/Sink

The main objective of current communication is to present a mathematical model and numerical simulation for momentum and heat transference characteristics of Maxwell nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet. Further, magnetic dipole, non-uniform heat source/sink, and chemical reaction effects are considered. By using well-known similarity transformation, formulated flow equations are modelled into OD equations. Numerical solutions of the governing flow equations are attained by utilizing the shooting method consolidated with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta with shooting system. Graphical results are deliberated and scrutinized for the consequence of different parameters on fluid characteristics. Results reveal that the temperature profile accelerates for diverse values of space dependent parameter, but it shows opposite behaviour for escalated integrity of temperature dependent parameter

Heat Transfer Attributes of Gold–Silver–Blood Hybrid Nanomaterial Flow in an EMHD Peristaltic Channel with Activation Energy

The heat enhancement in hybrid nanofluid flow through the peristaltic mechanism has received great attention due to its occurrence in many engineering and biomedical systems, such as flow through canals, the cavity flow model and biomedicine. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to discuss the hybrid nanofluid flow in a symmetric peristaltic channel with diverse effects, such as electromagnetohydrodynamics (EMHD), activation energy, gyrotactic microorganisms and solar radiation. The equations governing this motion were simplified under the approximations of a low Reynolds number (LRN), a long wavelength (LWL) and Debye–Hückel linearization (DHL). The numerical solutions for the non-dimensional system of equations were tackled using the com-putational software Mathematica. The influences of diverse physical parameters on the flow and thermal characteristics were computed through pictorial interpretations. It was concluded from the results that the thermophoresis parameter and Grashof number increased the hybrid nanofluid velocity near the right wall. The nanoparticle temperature decreased with the radiation parameter and Schmidt number. The activation energy and radiation enhanced the nanoparticle volume fraction, and motile microorganisms decreased with an increase in the Peclet number and Schmidt number. The applications of the current investigation include chyme flow in the gastrointestinal tract, the control of blood flow during surgery by altering the magnetic field and novel drug delivery systems in pharmacological engineering.This work was supported by the Deanship of Scientific Research, Vice Presidency for Graduate Studies and Scientific Research, King Faisal University, Saudi Arabia (Project No. AN00052)

Role of copper and alumina for heat transfer in hybrid nanofluid by using Fourier sine transform

The convection, thermal conductivity, and heat transfer of hybrid nanofluid through nanoparticles has become integral part of several natural and industrial processes. In this manuscript, a new fractionalized model based on hybrid nanofluid is proposed and investigated by employing singular verses and non-singular kernels. The mathematical modeling of hybrid nanofluid is handled via modern fractional definitions of differentiations. The combined Laplace and Fourier Sine transforms have been configurated on the governing equations of hybrid nanofluid. The analytical expression of the governing temperature and velocity equations of hybrid nanofluid have been solved via special functions. For the sake of thermal performance, dimensional analysis of governing equations and suitable boundary conditions based on Mittage-Leffler function have been invoked for the first time in literature. The comparative analysis of heat transfer from hybrid nanofluid has been observed through Caputo-Fabrizio and Atangana-Baleanu differential operators. Finally, our results suggest that volume fraction has the decelerated and accelerated trends of temperature distribution and inclined and declined profile of heat transfer is observed copper and alumina nanoparticles

Effect of Magnetic Baffles and Magnetic Nanofluid on Thermo-Hydraulic Characteristics of Dimple Mini Channel for Thermal Energy Applications

The combined effect of a magnetic baffle and a dimple turbulator on the heat transfer and pressure drop is investigated computationally in a mini channel. Fe3O4 magnetic nanofluid is used as a working fluid. The Reynolds number (Re) is varied from 150 to 210 and the magnetic field intensities range from 1200 G to 2000 G. Finite-volume based commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver ANSYS-Fluent 18.1 was used for the numerical simulations. A laminar viscous model is used with pressure-velocity coupling along with second-order upwind discretization and QUICK scheme for discretizing the momentum and energy equations. The results show that there is an increase of 3.53%, 10.77%, and 25.39% in the Nusselt numbers when the magnetic fields of 1200 G, 1500 G and 2000 G, respectively, are applied at x = 15 mm, as compared to the flow without a magnetic field when the pitch = 10 mm. These values change to 1.51%, 6.14% and 18.47% for a pitch = 5 mm and 0.85%, 4.33%, and 15.25% for a pitch = 2.5 mm, when compared to the flow without a magnetic field in the respective geometries. When the two sources are placed at x = 7.5 mm and 15 mm, there is an increase of 4.52%, 13.93%, and 33.08% in the Nusselt numbers when magnetic fields of 1200 G, 1500 G, and 2000 G are applied when the pitch = 10 mm. The increment changed to 1.82%, 8.16%, and 22.31% for a pitch = 5 mm and 1.01%, 5.96%, and 21.38% for a pitch = 2.5 mm. This clearly shows that the two sources at the front have a higher increment in the Nusselt numbers compared to one source, due to higher turbulence. In addition, there is a decrease in the pressure drop of 10.82%, 16.778%, and 26.75% when magnetic fields of 1200 G, 1500 G, and 2000 G, respectively, are applied at x = 15 mm, as compared to flow without magnetic field when the pitch = 10 mm. These values change to 2.46%, 4.98%, and 8.54% for a pitch = 5 mm and 1.62%, 3.52%, and 4.78% for a pitch = 2.5 mm, when compared to flow without magnetic field in the respective geometries. When two sources are placed at x = 7.5 mm and 15 mm, there is an decrease of 19.02%, 31.3%, and 50.34% in the pressure drop when the magnetic fields of 1200 G, 1500 G and 2000 G are applied when the pitch = 10 mm. These values change to 4.18%, 9.52%, and 16.52% for a pitch = 5 mm and 3.08%, 6.88%, and 14.88% for a pitch = 2.5 mm. Hence, with the increase in the magnetic field, there is a decrease in pressure drop for both the cases and the pitches. This trend is valid only at lower magnetic field strength, because the decrease in the pressure drop dominates over the increase in pressure drop due to turbulence.This work was funded by the Deanship of Scientific Research, Vice Presidency for Graduate Studies and Scientific Research, King Faisal University, Saudi Arabia (Project No. GRANT331).

Simultaneous Features of CC Heat Flux on Dusty Ternary Nanofluid (Graphene + Tungsten Oxide + Zirconium Oxide) through a Magnetic Field with Slippery Condition

The purpose of this work is to offer a unique theoretical ternary nanofluid (graphene/tungsten oxide/zirconium oxide) framework for better heat transfer. This model describes how to create better heat conduction than a hybrid nanofluid. Three different nanostructures with different chemical and physical bonds are suspended in water to create the ternary nanofluid (graphene/tungsten oxide/zirconium oxide). Toxic substances are broken down, the air is purified, and other devices are cooled thanks to the synergy of these nanoparticles. The properties of ternary nanofluids are discussed in this article, including their thermal conductivity, specific heat capacitance, viscosity, and density. In addition, heat transport phenomena are explained by the Cattaneo–Christov (CC) heat flow theory. In the modeling of the physical phenomena under investigation, the impacts of thermal nonlinear radiation and velocity slip are considered. By using the right transformations, flow-generating PDEs are converted into nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The parameters’ impacts on the velocity and temperature fields are analyzed in detail. The modeled problem is graphically handled in MATLAB using a numerical technique (BVP4c). Graphical representations of the important factors affecting temperature and velocity fields are illustrated through graphs. The findings disclose that the performance of ternary nanofluid phase heat transfer is improved compared to dusty phase performance. Furthermore, the magnetic parameter and the velocity slip parameter both experience a slowing-down effect of their respective velocities

The precision of the designed SCGNNs is provided through the achieved and Adam solutions. To rationality, competence, constancy, and correctness is approved by using the stochastic SCGNNs along with the simulations of the regression actions, mean square error, correlation performances, error histograms values and state transition measures

Numerical Scrutinization of Ternary Nanofluid Flow over an Exponentially Stretching Sheet with Gyrotactic Microorganisms

In the modern age, the study of nanofluids over the stretching sheet has received much attention from researchers due to its significant role in the polymer industry, for instance in the production of fibre sheets and the extrusion of molten polymers through a slit die. Due to these affordable applications, the current study focusses on the motion of metallic ternary nanofluids (Ag-Au-Cu/H2O) past an exponential stretching sheet, taking diverse effects such as gyrotactic microorganisms, activation energy, buoyancy forces and thermal radiation into consideration. The model was created with the complex system of partial differential equations. Suitable similarity transformations and non-dimensional quantities were utilized to transform the complex system of partial differential equations to a set of ordinary differential equations. The resultant system is solved with the help of Matlab software. The computational outcomes are presented through the tables and pictorial notations. It is observed from the current analysis that the nanoparticle temperature of the ternary nanofluid enhances with the enhancement of activation energy and Brownian motion parameters. For the rising values of Lewis and thermophoresis numbers there is a declination in the nanoparticle concentration distribution. The Brownian motion and radiation effects increase the microorganism profile

The study of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in the blood flow has emerged as an area of interest for numerous researchers, due to its many biomedical applications, such as cancer radiotherapy, DNA and antigens, drug and gene delivery, in vitro evaluation, optical bioimaging, radio sensitization and laser phototherapy of cancer cells and tumors. Gold nanoparticles can be amalgamated in various shapes and sizes. Due to this reason, gold nanoparticles can be diffused efficiently, target the diseased cells and destroy them.

Four kinds of nanoparticle shapes, namely bricks, cylinders and platelets, are considered. The governing equations are simplified under the approximations of low Reynolds number (LRN), long wavelength (LWL) and Debye–Hückel linearization (DHL). The numerical solutions for the non-dimensional equations are solved using the computational software MATLAB with the help of the bvp4c function.
