Summary: This paper investigates the behavior of two-dimensional incompressible mixed-convection flow of magneto-hydrodynamic Eyring-Powell nanofluid on a nonlinear stretching surface. The study reveals that entropy generation during irreversible processes leads to energy loss. By using non-dimensional parameters, a set of higher-order non-linear partial differential equations are transformed into a set of dimensionless ordinary differential equations, which are then solved numerically using the finite element method. The computational results demonstrate that the Schmidt number increases with temperature, while the Prandtl number exhibits the opposite trend. Bejan number and entropy generation decrease with the concentration diffusion parameter.

Summary: This paper analyzes the augmentation entropy generation number for a viscous nanofluid flow over a non-isothermal wedge, considering the effects of non-linear radiation and activation energy.

Summary: This study numerically investigates the entropy production rate in single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)/H2O nanofluid flowing through an inwardly corrugated pipe in turbulent flow regime. The results show that an increase in SWCNT-water nanofluid concentration and corrugation amplitude leads to a decrease in thermal entropy production but an increase in viscous entropy production.

Summary: This article examines the radiative flow of Newtonian nanoliquid over a stretchable curved surface, considering various factors such as radiation effect, Joule heating, and entropy rate. By converting the given system to ordinary one and solving it through ND-solve method, the influences of relevant variables on velocity, concentration, temperature, as well as drag force and Nusselt number are studied. The novelty of this work lies in the consideration of second order velocity slip and convective conditions in chemically reactive flow, with a lack of research on first order slip condition and without convective conditions.

Summary: This article examines the irreversibility of natural convection in water/copper nanofluids within a square enclosure. The study analyzes thermal entropy generation, frictional entropy generation, and total entropy generation by varying the Hartmann number, baffle thickness and length, and magnetic field angle. The numerical analysis is conducted using the Lattice Boltzmann method. Results show that increasing the Hartmann number reduces the velocity components and temperature gradient in the enclosure and decreases all types of entropy generation. Increasing the magnetic field angle enhances thermal and frictional entropy generation as well as total entropy generation, with the Bejan number initially decreasing and then increasing.

Summary: In this study, numerical simulations were conducted on the thermal characteristics and second-law analysis of turbulent Cu-H2O nanofluid flow in heat exchangers with transverse-cut twisted tapes (TCTTs) fitted by alternate axis. The simulations showed that TCTTs with a transverse-cut ratio of 0.7 generated higher turbulent kinetic energy compared to those with a ratio of 0.9, with an increase in nanofluid volume concentration leading to a reduction in thermal entropy generation.

Nonlinear equations are obtained through constitutive relations, and they are transformed into ordinary differential equations by adopting suitable variables. The behavior of flow controlling parameters is analyzed graphically, and physical quantities are discussed through tables. Important findings are presented, such as the impact of the magnetic effect on the velocity decrement and the opposite impact on the entropy rate.

Summary: This analysis investigates the entropy generation of hybrid nanofluidic transport over an unsteady spinning disk. The study considers the magnetic influence, velocity slips, and thermal radiative effects in the flow. The results show that increasing the magnetic field value increases the entropy generation, while velocity slip, radiation, and nanoparticle concentration reduce it. The entropy production of the hybrid nanofluid is lower compared to the usual nanofluid. The magnetic parameter reduces the Bejan number, while the slip factor and nanoparticle concentration amplify its effects.

Summary: The objective of this article is to present a novel model for the natural convection in MHD boundary-layer flow of CNT-based nanofluid above a vertical cone in a porous medium. The model considers the effects of thermal radiations, chemical reactions, and different types of CNTs. Non-similarity transformations are used to obtain dimensionless PDEs, and a numerical solution is obtained using the bvp4c algorithm. The results show that the Sherwood number increases with the Biot number, and the velocity and temperature profiles decrease with the Prandtl number. The influence of SWCNTs is found to be higher than MWCNTs for velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles.

Summary: The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of various parameters on the magnetohydrodynamic convection flow of a nanofluid across a stretched sheet. The study includes the influence of viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and slip condition, as well as convective boundary condition, mass flux and heat source. The results show that the values of volume fraction and slip parameter increase the skin friction coefficient, while the values of Hartman number and porosity parameter decrease it. Furthermore, the values of volume fraction, slip parameter, and Eckert number decrease the local Nusselt number, while the values of Hartman number, porosity parameter, and heat source parameter increase it.

Summary: In this study, the effects of electrokinetic phenomena on entropy are investigated. The microchannel is modeled with an asymmetrical and slanted configuration, taking into account fluid friction, mixed convection, Joule heating, presence and absence of homogeneity, and a magnetic field. The governing flow equations are linearized using the Debye-Huckel and lubrication assumptions, and the resulting nonlinear couple differential equations are solved using Mathematica. Homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction parameters have different effects on concentration distribution, and the Eyring-Powell fluid parameters show opposite relations with various variables. The overall increase in fluid temperature and entropy is influenced by the mass Grashof number, Joule heating parameter, and viscous dissipation parameter.

Summary: This article investigates flow over a linearly stretching sheet with constant temperature. The effects of frictional heating and Ohmic heating are studied. It is found that energy equations are not self-similar when considering viscous dissipation, depending on the stretching velocity and surface temperature. A constraint between sheet velocity and surface temperature is needed for similarity transformations. In this analysis, a pseudo-similarity transformation is employed and the viscous dissipation parameter is used as a non-similarity variable.

Summary: This study investigates the entropy generation in steady three-dimensional thermal flow under the combined influence of viscous dissipation and mixed convection. The governing equations are reduced to a dimensionless nonlinear set of ordinary differential equations using classical similarity variables. The simplified finite difference method is employed to solve the resulting equations, and good agreement is observed with previous results. The effects of physical parameters on various flow and heat transfer variables, as well as entropy generation rate, are examined. A decreasing trend in entropy generation rate is found near the stretching surface with respect to the mixed convection parameter, and entropy reduction can be achieved by using a fluid with low Prandtl number and minimizing fluid friction.
