Curved veins and arteries make up the human cardiovascular system, and the peristalsis process underlies the blood flowing in these ducts. The blood flow in the presence of hybrid nanoparticles through a tapered complex wavy curved channel is numerically investigated. The behavior of the blood is characterized by the Casson fluid model while the physical properties of iron and copper are used in the analysis. The fundamental laws of mass, momentum and energy give rise the system of nonlinear coupled partial differential equations which are normalized using the variables, and the resulting set of governing relations are simplified in view of a smaller Reynolds model approach. The numerical simulations are performed using the computational software Mathematica’s built-in ND scheme. It is noted that the velocity of the blood is abated by the nanoparticles’ concentration and assisted in the non-uniform channel core. Furthermore, the nanoparticles’ volume fraction and the dimensionless curvature of the channel reduce the temperature profile.
A numerical study is performed to discuss the nonaligned stagnation of a rate type fluid over a convective surface. The rheology of the fluid is presented by the constitutive equation of the Maxwell fluid model. Buongiorno's model is used to elaborate on the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis and motile microorganisms are introduced for the stability of the nanoparticles. The governing equations were solved by the implicit finite difference method. Graphical illustrations for velocity, temperature, nanoparticle concentration and motile microorganism profiles for various involved parameters are presented for both convective and nonconvective surfaces. It is depicted that the temperature, nanoparticle, and microorganism concentration profiles decease while both axial and tangential velocities increase with the velocity ratio parameter for both Newtonian and Maxwellian fluids. The magnitude of temperature, nanoparticle, and microorganism concentration profiles is large for the nonconvective surface as compared to the convective surface. The Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and motile organism number decrease as we move from Newtonian fluid to non‐Newtonian fluid. Furthermore, the increase in the Brownian motion parameter and thermophoresis parameter decreases the density of the motile organism over the convective as well as nonconvective surface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
