MHD Maxwell Fluid Flow in Presence of Nano-Particle Through a Vertical Porous-Plate With Heat-Generation, Radiation Absorption and Chemical Reaction

Abstract

Present study concerns with the numerical investigation of MHD transient naturally convective and higher order chemically reactive Maxwell fluid with Nano-particle flow through a vertical porous plate with the effects of heat generation and radiation absorption. A boundary layer approximation is carried out to develop a flow model representing time dependent momentum, energy, and concentration equations. The governing model equations in partial differential equations (PDEs) form are transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODEs) by using non-similar technique. Explicit Finite Difference Method (EFDM) is employed by implementing an algorithm in Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6a to solve the obtained set of nonlinear coupled ODEs. For optimizing the system parameter and accuracy of the system, the stability and convergence analysis (SCA) are carried out. It is observed that with initial boundary conditions, U =V =T = C= 0 and for Δτ = 0.005, ΔX = 0.20 and ΔY = 0.25, the system converged at Prandtl number, Pr ≥ 0.209 and Lewis number, Le ≥ 0.16. The velocity, temperature and concentration flow are investigated and shown graphically with the effect of system parameters. Furthermore, the effect of system parameters on skin friction coefficient, Cf, Nusselt number, Nu, and Sherwood number, Sh, are also examined and tabularized.

Yongbin Zhang (2017) has been reported that an influence of pore wall surface property on flux of cylindrical-shaped nanoporous filtering membrane.…”

Magneto radiative and heat convective flow boundary layer in Maxwell fluid across a porous inclined vertical plate

“…Rajput and Gaurav 2 explored the Soret result on non-time dependent MHD flow by using an impulsively begun inclined wavering plate with the effect of variable temperature. In the occurrence of nanoparticles, Arifuzzaman et al 3 analyzed the MHD Maxwell fluid flow on a perpendicular porous plate along with radiation absorption, chemical reaction and heat generation. Hosseinzadeh et al 4 thought that the possessions of nonlinear radiation and reactive chemical flow on the Maxwell fluid across a porous media equipped with a convectively heated plate are investigated.…”

Computational Modelling on MHD Radiative Sisko Nanofluids Flow through a Nonlinearly Stretching Sheet

“…Biswas et al examined the character of hydromagnetic nanofluid explicitly on a perpendicular stretched sheet/plate with radiation absorption [34]. Arifuzzaman et al and Rabbi et al analysed the character of different fluids flow by using EFDM over porous plate [35][36][37][39][40][41][42]. A similar method is applied by Biswas et al to observe the 2D transient optically dense Grey nanofluid impact of periodic magnetic field [38].…”
