Dynamic of Two-phase Dusty Nanofluid Flow Past a Vertical Wavy Surface

An analysis is performed to study two-phase natural convection flow with heat transfer of nanofluid along a vertical way surface. The model includes equations expressing conservation of total mass, momentum and thermal energy for two-phase nano fluid. Primitive variable formulations (PVF) are used to transform the dimensionless boundary layer equations into convenient coordinate system and resulting equations are integrated numerically via implicit finite difference iterative scheme. The effects of the controlling parameters on the dimensionless quantities such as skin friction coeffcient, rate of heat transfer and rate of mass transfer are explored. It is concluded from present analysis, that the diffusivity ratio parameter, NA and particle-density increment number, NB has pronounced effect in reduction of heat transfer rate

Influence of Variable Thermophysical Properties on Nanofluid Bioconvection along a Vertical Isothermal Cone

The prime purpose of this analysis is to investigate the effect of variable thermophysical properties of nano fluid on bioconvection boundary layer flow past a uniformly heated vertical cone. The governing equations with associated boundary conditions for this phenomenon are cast into a non-dimensional form via continuous transformation, which are then solved by using the implicit finite difference method. How does the phenomena of heat transfer is effected due to the temperature-dependent thermophysical properties of the fluid is the question investigated in this manuscript. Comprehensive numerical computations are carried out for wide range of the parameters that are describing the flow characteristics. The influence of the governing physical parameters on the distribution of velocity and temperature profiles, wall skin friction and local rate of heat transfer is explored. Tabular comparison with some special cases of published data is done and good agreement is found. It is recorded that, the variable thermophysical properties of the fluid are more likely to promote the rate of heat transfer, Q_w as compared to fluid having constant properties

Gender-Based Motivational Factors For Choosing Dentistry As A Career By First Year Dental Students Of College Of Pakistan

Abstract Objective: Dentistry, also known as “Dental Medicine” is opted for various reasons like prestige, socioeconomic status or personal desire. However, some join dentistry just to fulfil the wishes of their parents. Students who choose dentistry by their own choice excel better in this field. Another general impression is that mostly female students prefer it. To have a true picture of these impressions in our society, we planned this study to identify the reasons and motives of undergraduate dental surgeons for joining dentistry. Methods: A cross-sectional study, was conducted on 278 students at Margalla College of Dentistry, from December 2020 to April 2021 after the approval of the Ethical review committee of the institute. - The probability judgmental sampling technique was used. Students who consented were included in the study. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data which was analyzed using SPSS 21. Results: In this study, about 48.4% of students selected dentistry as their first choice but out of these only 48.9% did prior career planning. Female students 76 (49.6%) opted for dentistry as compared to male students 12 (30.7%). However, there was an insignificant difference regarding career choice between both genders (p=0.591). Prominent motivating factors were flexible work patterns (63.5%), self-employment (63%), financial security (44.8%) and parents wish (25%). Conclusion: Students chose Dentistry not only due to their interests but also because of flexible work patterns, financial security and self-employment. Both genders have more or less the same inclination towards dentistry.

Two-phase Dusty Fluid Flow Along a Rotating Axi-symmetric Round-Nosed Body

This article is concerned with the class of solutions of gas boundary layer containing uniform, spherical solid particles over the surface of rotating axi-symmetric roundnosed body. By using the method of transformed coordinates, the boundary-layer equations for two-phase flow are mapped into a regular and stationary computational domain and then solved numerically by using implicit finite difference method. In this study, a rotating hemisphere is used as a particular example to elucidate the heat transfer mechanism near the surfaces of round nosed bodies. We will also investigate whether the presence of dust particles in carrier fluid disturb the flow characteristics associated with rotating hemisphere or not. A comprehensive parametric analysis is presented to show the influence of the particle loading, the buoyancy ratio parameter and the surface of rotating hemisphere on the numerical findings. In the absence of dust particles, the results are graphically compared with existing data in the open literature and an excellent agreement has been found. It is noted that, the concentration of dust particles parameter, D_p, strongly influence the heat transport rate near the leading edge

Natural Convection Flow of a Two-Phase Dusty Non-Newtonian Fluid Along a Vertical Surface

The aim of this paper is to present a boundary-layer analysis of two-phase dusty non-Newtonian fluid flow along a vertical surface by using a modified power-law viscosity model. This investigation particularly reports the flow behavior of spherical particles suspended in the non-Newtonian fluid. The governing equations are transformed into nonconserved form and then solved straightforwardly by implicit finite difference method. The numerical results of rate of heat transfer, rate of shear stress, velocity and temperature profiles and streamlines and isotherms are presented for wide range of Prandtl number, i.e, (0:7 ≤ Pr ≤ 1000:0), with the representative values of the power-law index n. A good agreement is found between the present and the previous results when compared with some special cases. The key observation from the present study is that the power-law fluids with (n > 1) are more likely to promote the rate of heat transfer near the leading edge

Natural convection flow of two-phase dusty gas with variable thermophysical properties along a vertical wavy surface

The purpose of the present study is to establish the detailed parametric solutions for laminar natural convection flow of two-phase dusty fluid moving along a vertical wavy plate. Typical sinusoidal surface is used to elucidate the heat transport phenomena for the carrier gas having variable thermophysical properties. The governing equations are cast into a system of parabolic partial differential equations by using set of continuous transformations and then the resulting system is integrated through implicit finite difference method. In order to ensure the accuracy, the present numerical results are also compared with the available published results and good compatibility is found between the present and previous results. It is showed that mass concentration parameter, D_p, and the variable thermophysical properties extensively promotes the rate of heat transfer near the uneven surface. It is also established that amplitude of the wavy surface enhances very drastically, which is also due to the variable properties of the fluid

Numerical estimation of thermal radiation effects on Marangoni Convection of dusty fluid

In this paper, numerical solutions to thermally radiating Marangoni convection of dusty fluid flow along a vertical wavy surface are established. The results are obtained with the understanding that the dust particles are of uniform size and dispersed in optically thick fluid.

In order to analyze the influence of various controlling parameters, results are displayed in the form of rate of heat transfer, skin friction coeffcient, velocity and temperature profiles, streamlines and isotherms. It is observed that the variation in thermal radiation parameter significantly alters the corresponding particle pattern and extensively promotes the heat transfer rate

The key observation from the present analysis is that the amplitude of wavy surface parameter, a contributes in reduction of heat transfer rate
