et al. 2013

In this paper, an analysis is carried out for the similarity solution of the steady boundary layer flow and heat transfer of a Casson nanofluid flowing over a vertical cylinder which is stretching exponentially along its radial direction. Using boundary layer approach and suitable similarity transformation the governing partial differential equations with the boundary conditions are reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The resulting system is solved with the help of numerical technique, the Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method. The effects of important parameters such as Reynolds number, Prandtl number, Lewis number and the natural convection parameter are described through graphs.

The interaction of transient fully developed natural convection flow with thermal radiation inside a vertical annulus is analyzed both analytically and numerically. The Rosseland approximation is used to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. The mathematical model capturing the present physical situation is highly non-linear due to the presence of radiation effect. The solution of transient model is obtained by implicit finite difference method. To check accuracy of the numerical solution, steady state solution for energy and momentum equations are derived analytically using perturbation series method. Skin-friction and Nusselt number at the outer surface of inner cylinder as well as inner surface of the outer cylinder are obtained. Selected sets of graphical results illustrating the effects of various controlling parameters involved in the problem on flow formation are discussed.
