Summary: This article presents a numerical investigation of the magnetohydrodynamics of a mixed convection of nanoenhanced phase change material (NEPCM) within a triangular chamber containing an elliptical heat source. Forced convection is induced by the movement of the upper cavity, while free convection is due to the temperature difference between the heat source and inclined sidewalls. The impacts of various parameters on the heat transfer rate are discussed, including the Reynolds number, inclination angle of the heat source, nanoparticles volume fraction, and the movement directions of the upper wall.

Summary: A numerical investigation is conducted to examine a compressible fluid flow in a two-dimensional rectangular lid-driven cavity with a vertical temperature gradient. The study focuses on the impact of the aspect ratio on the vorticity dynamics and redistribution. It is found that the vortical structures in specific sub-cells of the rectangular cavity resemble orbital motion and undergo a shift in vorticity transfer as the aspect ratio increases. The flow exhibits chaotic behavior regardless of the aspect ratio, and the dominance of baroclinic vorticity over viscous diffusion suggests its major contribution to rotational flow structures.

Summary: The numerical analysis of mixed convection in a lid-driven trapezoidal cavity with a flexible bottom wall filled with a hybrid nanofluid shows that both Reynolds number and volume fraction of nanoparticles significantly affect flow and heat transfer characteristics. The Fluid-Structure-Interface (FSI) model has a profound effect on heat transfer compared to a rigid wall model, and FSI is more feasible to enhance heat transfer compared to the addition of nanoparticles. This study confirms the promising applications of FSI model in enhancing heat transfer characteristics.

Summary: This paper numerically studied the double-diffusive mixed convection of MWCNT/water in a curvilinear cavity with split lid-driven and hot ellipses. The heat and mass transfers were found to be greatly enhanced with the increase of Reynolds number in the case of low Richardson number. However, the effect of Reynolds number becomes unnoticeable with a high Richardson number. Furthermore, Lewis number has a positive effect on heat and mass transfer, and this effect increases with increasing Richardson number.

Summary: The feasibility of using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to predict thermal behavior due to mixed convection has been established, with new correlations derived for possible engineering design applications. Varying the distance between rectangular blocks has a significant influence on Nusselt number, and the Nusselt number is higher for vertical blocks compared to horizontal blocks. Increasing Reynolds and Grashof numbers magnitudes lead to increased Nusselt number, with specific maximum Nu numbers identified for different block orientations.

Summary: This article analyzes the heat and mass transfer mechanism of a micropolar nanofluid embedded with buoyancy force and magnetic field. The mathematical model is constructed using mass, energy, and momentum equations, and numerical simulations are performed using the finite volume approach. The study finds that the random mobility of nanoparticles leads to more heat emission inside the enclosure, and mass diffusion is faster for smaller Schmidt numbers. Additionally, a high vortex viscosity parameter has a significant effect when thermophoresis parameter and Reynolds number are significant.

Summary: Distinct fractional models of falling object with linear and quadratic air resistive forces are investigated using Caputo fractional derivative. Analytical solutions are obtained for each model, providing a vivid understanding of the object's motion. The contribution of nonlinearity to the fractional models is carefully examined. These fractional models exhibit rich phenomena not found in traditional integer derivative models, but still converge to the traditional model. Short time perturbation and large time asymptotic formulae are derived. The solutions for some fractional models suggest either an increased speed surpassing gravity or asymptotic deceleration to a stop, in contrast to reaching a terminal speed. In the case of quadratic air resistance, power series and asymptotic series solutions are derived under Caputo fractional derivative and infinite base fractional differentiation, respectively. The analysis of ideal falling object motion emphasizes the impact of fractional models and fractional derivative definitions on physical motion, necessitating proper justification.

Summary: This study investigates the three-dimensional viscous flow caused by the expansion or contraction of a porous slider. The fluid injection for levitating the slider is not constant but changes with time, depending on the slider's location. The unsteady equations of motion are transformed into similarity form using the Reynolds number and dilation parameter. Closed-form expressions are derived for the limiting case of a Reynolds number tending to zero, while numerical methods are used for other cases. The effects of the slider's up and down movement on the flow field, lift, and drag properties are analyzed. It is found that the expansion of the flat slider suppresses lift and drag, while contraction has the opposite effect, which is practically significant for reducing frictional resistance during slider operation.

Summary: This paper explores the significance of slip situations in porous media and frictional heating on unsteady fluid flow through porous media. Numerical solutions of the differential equation for fluid flow through porous material, including slip effects, are presented. Using a similarity transformation, a nonlinear ordinary differential equation is obtained. The resulting set of nonlinear problems is numerically solved using Maple packages under velocity and thermal slip conditions. Both velocity and temperature increase with an increase in the Brinkman viscosity ratio parameter ?. The effects of the nondimensional parameters on flow velocity and temperature are examined using graphical profiles. The implications of relevant parameters on dimensionless temperature, velocity, local Nusselt number, and skin friction coefficient are shown and explained. The fluctuation of parameters for various flow quantities of interest is investigated and the results are presented in graphs and tables.

Summary: This paper investigates the mechanism of triggering Benard convection through the absolute instability mode in the presence of a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the channel walls. The locus of wavenumbers and critical Rayleigh numbers leading to absolute instability onset is determined through a theoretical linear stability approach. The magnetic field has a stabilizing effect on convection, but it becomes ineffective against the absolute instability mechanism beyond a critical location.

Summary: In this article, the onset of convection in porous media with through flow is studied based on Darcy formulation. The effects of uniform vertical flow on the thermal instability of convective cells are investigated using three different thermal boundary constraints. The influence of the Peclet number on the stability response of the porous layer is analyzed, and the critical Darcy-Rayleigh numbers and Benard cell wavenumbers are determined numerically. The results show that opposing and assisting through flows have different effects on the stability of convection depending on the thermal conditions of the walls.

Summary: This research investigates the fluid flow and heat transfer development between two cylinders, induced solely by the stretching of the inner cylinder. The mathematical formulation based on mass conservation, Navier-Stokes, and energy equations reveals that the motion is governed by cylinder curvature, Prandtl number, and gap parameters. Numerical simulations show that deformation of the inner cylinder generates axial motion of the fluid above, compensated by radial fluid flow. Analytical solutions are derived for specific cases, demonstrating different flow patterns and the effect of the gap size on momentum and thermal fields. The authors suggest rechecking published numerical results against these exact solutions from a mathematical perspective.

Summary: This study examines the shape effects of different nanoparticles (sphere, blade, cylinder, and brick) in an incompressible, unsteady flow of a nanofluid Al2O3 with water H2O as the base fluid over a rotating disk. The magnetic field results are also included. The numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equation, along with the magnetic field effect and the thermal energy equation, is obtained using the Von Karman transformation and the bvp4c MATLAB solver. The graphical illustrations show the effects of various parameters on the velocity field and temperature profile. The analysis is validated by comparison with previous research. Additionally, the volume fraction parameter and the unsteadiness parameter have significant influences on the velocity profiles near the disk for different nanoparticle shapes, while the magnetic field impact is limited by the suction parameter values.
