Significance of heat source/sink on the radiative flow of Cross nanofluid across an exponentially stretching surface towards a stagnation point with chemical reaction

Abstract

A numerical review on magnetohydrodynamics radiative motion of Cross nanofluid across an exponentially stretchable surface near stagnation point with varying heat source/sink is addressed. Brownian movement and thermophoretic impacts are assumed. The governing equations for this study are first altered as a system of ordinary differential equations by similarity transformation. With an aid of the Runge–Kutta 4th order mechanism together with the shooting procedure, the impacts of several pertinent parameters including chemical reaction on regular profiles (velocity, temperature, and concentration) are explicated. The consequences of the same parameters on surface drag force, transfer rates of heat, and mass are visualized in tables. From the analysis, it was noticed that the magnetic field parameter enhances the temperature and decreases the velocity of the Cross nanofluid. Also, fluid temperature is an increasing function with thermal radiation and nonuniform heat source/sink. The rate of heat transfer is increased with thermophoresis and diminished with Brownian motion. Sherwood's number is diminished with Brownian motion but it was boosted up with thermophoresis. The present results are compared with published results and those are in agreement.

Impact of Shape Factor on a Couple Stress Flow of a Ternary Hybrid Nanofluid over an Inclined Flat Plate when Non-Uniform Heat Source and Thermal Radiation are Significant: A Darcy-Forchheimer Model

“…Figs. [13][14][15] show that as the value of the T I increases, the Bejan number rises, while the same decrease with the rise in Br and S . With an escalation in the Brinkman number, there is a corresponding escalation in the heat generated by viscous dissipation, resulting in a concomitant reduction in the Bejan number.…”

“…It has been noted that when the Richardson number grows, the impact of nanoparticle dispersion on reducing skin friction becomes more pronounced. Following this, several research papers [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] delved into the flat plate as a geometric form, investigating a range of fluid dynamics scenarios with different parameters, encompassing thermal radiation.…”
