Numerical investigation of heat transport in a MHD flow past a wedge over a stretching surface in different nanofluids
ORAL
Abstract
The present article theoretically discusses the numerical study of thermally driven fluid past a wedge, MHD flow of nanofluids over a stretching surface. We examined the properties of the solution profiles for flow regime for all possible flows. Continuum conservation laws are the basis of this investigation. To solve the governing incompressible Navier-Stokes equation along with the energy we introduced the analytical method. Computations are carried out for fluid flows and temperature profiles for different nanofluids taking metals and oxides as nano-particles with water as a base fluid. The effects of ascending power of nanoparticle volume fraction on the velocity and temperature field are captured and discussed. A comparative analysis is obtained for distinct volume fractions of nano-particles, Hartmann, and Hartee numbers. The fluid flow approach towards the accelerated and decelerated flows followed by multiple solutions is also observed.
