The present paper investigates the effect of a mathematical model describing the aforementioned process in which the ambient nanofluid in the presence of suction/injection and magnetic field are taken into consideration. The flow is induced by an infinite elastic sheet which is stretched along its own plane. The stretching/shrinking of the sheet is assumed to be proportional to the distance from the slit. The governing equations are reduced to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation by means of similarity transformation. The consequential nonlinear equation is solved analytically. Consequences show that the flow field can be divided into a near-field region and a far-field region. Suction on the surface plays an important role in the flow development in the near-field whereas the far-field is responsible mainly by stretching. The electromagnetic effect plays exactly the same role as the MHD, which is to reduce the horizontal flow resulting from stretching. It is shown that the behavior of the fluid flow changes with the change of the nanoparticles type. The present study throws light on the analytical solution of a class of laminar boundary layer equations arising in the stretching/shrinking sheet problem.

Summary: Convective heat transfer is a major phenomenon in different technical and natural systems, especially in enclosures under different temperature distributions at bounded walls. This research addresses the thermogravitation energy transport of a non-constant viscosity medium inside a 3D region with non-uniform or uniform temperature profile at one vertical wall, studying the impacts of Rayleigh number and viscosity changeable magnitude on the energy transference and flow structures. The control equations with border restrictions are reduced into a non-dimensional form and integrated by finite difference procedures.

Summary: This study analyzed the effects of different nanoparticle shape factors, EMHD, and radiation parameters on the flow of Cu-Al2O3/H2O nanofluid towards a stretching/shrinking Riga plate. New solutions were found with certain shrinking parameter values, showing instabilities in the solutions. The increase in EMHD parameter was found to delay the separation process, and heat transfer rate slightly increased with the rise of EMHD, radiation, and shape factor parameters.

Amit Kumar, Rajendra K. Ray, Mikhail A. Sheremet

Summary: This study focuses on swirling flow of nanoliquid over a radially stretchable rotating disk, considering nonlinear mixed convection and chemical reaction defined by Arrhenius model, as well as imperfect liquid-solid energy interaction and Navier's velocity slip condition. A flow model is established using Buongiorno's nanofluid model, with outcomes showing that increased magnetic and slip parameter values decrease fluid velocities while improving entropy generation with higher Brinkman number or magnetic parameter values. The coupled nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed to non-dimensional ordinary differential equations and solved using bvp4c technique, presenting results graphically and in tabular forms for surface drag force, energy, and mass transport.
