Modelling the heat transfer of nanofluid towards a radiating stretching sheet of varying thickness using thermal flux

The present paper targets the flow of fluid with Fe3O4 particles as nanomaterial over a non-linear elongated sheet with changing width. The process holds vital importance in various industries like paper manufacturing, extrusion of dyes and filaments, atomic reactors and many more. Nanofluids depict special features which give them the potential to be also used in power engines, refrigerators, power plants as well as pharmaceutical processes. Hence, the presented model is designed to intensify the rate of heat transfer and to reduce energy wastage, and tailor for the optimal selection of parameters like conductivity as well as viscosity, which will improve the effectiveness of the heat transfer process. The main idea behind this investigation is to calculate the effect of electromagnetohydrodynamics, Biot number, Eckert number, radiation along with the absorption factor. In this paper, the flow is modelled by using Navier-Stokes equations which are customised to Prandtl boundary layer equations. The Adams-Bashforth predictor-corrector is used to obtain numerical solutions. The present study helps to potentially improve and achieve the desired quality of the stretching sheet. Moreover, a negligible amount of activation energy is required, finding an economical way to get suitable out-puts.

Abstract

The present paper targets the flow of fluid with Fe3O4 particles as nanomaterial over a non-linear elongated sheet with changing width. The process holds vital importance in various industries like paper manufacturing, extrusion of dyes and filaments, atomic reactors and many more. Nanofluids depict special features which give them the potential to be also used in power engines, refrigerators, power plants as well as pharmaceutical processes. Hence, the presented model is designed to intensify the rate of heat transfer and to reduce energy wastage, and tailor for the optimal selection of parameters like conductivity as well as viscosity, which will improve the effectiveness of the heat transfer process. The main idea behind this investigation is to calculate the effect of electromagnetohydrodynamics, Biot number, Eckert number, radiation along with the absorption factor. In this paper, the flow is modelled by using Navier-Stokes equations which are customised to Prandtl boundary layer equations. The Adams-Bashforth predictor-corrector is used to obtain numerical solutions. The present study helps to potentially improve and achieve the desired quality of the stretching sheet. Moreover, a negligible amount of activation energy is required, finding an economical way to get suitable out-puts.
