Summary: The impact of chemical reaction and activation energy is crucial in analyzing the fluid dynamics and thermal properties. The application of fluid flow is widely considered in various fields such as nuclear reactors, automobiles, manufacturing setups, and electronic appliances. In this study, the effects of activation energy and chemical reaction on the magnetohydrodynamic Darcy-Forchheimer squeezed Casson fluid flow through a porous material in a horizontal channel are investigated. Using similarity variables, partial differential equations are converted to ordinary differential equations. The numerical method using MATLAB is employed to solve the problems and obtain data on velocity field, thermal distribution, and concentration distribution. The results indicate that as the plates are brought closer, both the fluid velocity and temperature increase. Moreover, an increase in the Hartmann number leads to a decrease in fluid velocity due to the presence of strong Lorentz forces. The liquid's temperature and concentration increase due to Brownian motion. When both the Darcy-Forchheimer and activation energy parameters are increased, the velocity and concentration decrease.

Summary: This research article addresses the diffusion-thermo effect in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of Jeffrey's fractional fluid past an exponentially accelerated vertical plate, utilizing the constant proportional Caputo (CPC) fractional derivative for the generalization of thermal and mass fluxes. The governing equations are solved semi-analytically by Laplace transform, and the physical aspects and effects of different parameters are discussed through graphical illustrations. The results show that the presence of Dufour effect increases the flow speed, and the fractional model with constant proportional derivative decays faster compared to the classical Caputo and Caputo fractional derivatives.

Summary: This paper investigates the dynamic heat and mass transfer process of charged particle clusters generated by Pulsed Surface Arc Discharge (PSAD) actuators. The clusters are composed of charged particles, and the thermal effect is the macroscopic manifestation of their thermal motion. The transfer mode of the plasma cluster changes from forced convection to natural convection, and the Richardson number varies in different stages. A model describing the dynamic heat and mass transfer of pulsed plasma clusters is constructed, and the results show that the clusters mainly conduct mass transfer through low-frequency modes and heat transfer through high-frequency modes.

Summary: This study experimentally investigates the convective heat transfer of supercritical CO2 (sCO2) flowing upward and downward in a 10 mm diameter tube. The effects of heat flux, mass flux, pressure, and flow orientation on heat transfer were examined. The results show that a rising heat flux impairs heat transfer, an increase in mass flux enhances heat transfer, and an increase in pressure harms heat transfer. Downward flow exhibits better heat transfer performance compared to upward flow under the same conditions.

Summary: The study focuses on the impact of exponential space-dependent heat source on Casson fluid flow with MHD over a curved stretching sheet, considering chemical reaction and convective heat and mass flux boundary conditions. By reducing the governing equations to ordinary differential equations using similarity transformations, the numerical technique of Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method is employed for solution. The results show that curvature parameter influences velocity and concentration profiles positively, while temperature profile shows an inverse relation. Additionally, changes in Casson parameter significantly affect all flow profiles, and thermal and concentration Biot numbers impact temperature and concentration profiles, respectively.

Summary: The present article investigates the effects of radiative heat flux and Joule heating on the 3D magneto-flow of tangent hyperbolic mixed nanoliquid above a linear/nonlinear expandable surface. A hybrid nanofluid is prepared by suspending aluminum alloy nanoparticles AA7072 and AA7075 in methanol liquid. Nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations using appropriate similarity conversions, and their solutions are obtained using the bvp5c MATLAB package. The study provides simultaneous results of radiative hydrodynamic flow under linear and nonlinear extending surface conditions, and the influence of various factors on the flow characteristics is demonstrated through plots. The thermal transport rate is found to be twice as high in the nonlinear extending case compared to the linear stretching case, with the presence of unique nanoparticles significantly enhancing the thermal transport mechanism of the non-Newtonian liquid.
