Abstract:In this study, a numerical investigation of a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) and backward-facing nanofluidic flow was performed using the thermal lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with multiple distribution functions to handle dynamic and thermal fields, including the magnetic force. The Cu-H<sub>2</sub>O based nanofluid is considered as the working fluid, and the Brinkman-Forchheimer model is adopted to mathematically formulate the porous medium. In addition, heat transfer, pumping power, thermal perform… Show more
