Impairment of sensory motor function of peripheral nervous system is more in chronic diabetic with less glycemic control ie., HbA1C>7 who have shown increased Auditory and Visual Reaction time than chronic DM with HbA1C<7.Severity of Peripheral neuropathy in Type II Diabetics could be due to elevated HbA1C.
The present numerical study reports the thermal performance of the straight porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity, radiation, and magnetic field effects. The heat transfer model comprising the Darcy's law for simulating flow with solid-fluid interactions in porous medium, Rosseland approximation for heat transfer through radiation, Maxwell equations for magnetic field effect and linearly varying temperature dependent thermal conductivity, results into highly nonlinear ordinary differential equation. The governing equation is solved using a finite difference scheme with suitable boundary conditions. The obtained solutions are physically interpreted by considering the impact of different nondimensional parameters on thermal performance, efficiency, and effectiveness of the system through plotted graphs. A detailed result with regard to the Nusselt number at the fin base is calculated. The results obtained are observed to be in excellent agreement with previous studies. From the study, it is observed that there is a significant effect on the thermal performance of the fin in the presence of porous constraints; also, results reveal that the nonlinear thermal conductivity parameter strengthens the thermal performance, efficiency, and effectiveness of the fin. Furthermore, the results of the study reveal that the rate of heat transfer of the fin increases with the increase in the magnetic parameter and radiation parameter.
Recent developments in fluid dynamics have been focusing on nanofluids, which preserve significant thermal conductivity properties and magnify heat transport in fluids. Classical nanofluid studies are generally confined to models described by partial differential equations of an integer order, where the memory effect and hereditary properties of materials are neglected. To overcome these downsides, the present work focuses on studying nanofluids with fractional derivatives formed by differential equations with Caputo time derivatives that provide memory effect on nanofluid characteristics. Further, heat transfer enhancement and boundary layer flow of fractional Maxwell nanofluid with single‐wall and multiple walls carbon nanotubes are investigated. The Maxwell nanofluid saturates the porous medium. Also, buoyancy, magnetic, electric, and heating effects are considered. Governing continuity, momentum, and energy equations involving Caputo time‐fractional derivatives reduced nondimensional forms using suitable dimensionless quantities. Numerical solutions for arising nonlinear problems are developed using finite difference approximation combined with L1 algorithm. The influence of involved physical parameters on flow and heat transfer characteristics is analyzed and depicted graphically. Our simulations found out that surface drag of Maxwell nanofluid with single‐walled carbon nanotubes dominates nanofluids with multiple walls carbon nanotubes, but the reverse trend is noticed for larger Grashof number values.
