The present research work explores the effects of suction/injection and viscous dissipation on entropy generation in the boundary layer flow of a hybrid nanofluid (Cu-Al2O3-H2O) over a nonlinear radially stretching porous disk. The energy dissipation function is added in the energy equation in order to incorporate the effects of viscous dissipation. The Tiwari and Das model is used in this work. The flow, heat transfer, and entropy generation analysis have been performed using a modified form of the Maxwell Garnett (MG) and Brinkman nanofluid model for effective thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity, respectively. Suitable transformations are utilized to obtain a set of self-similar ordinary differential equations. Numerical solutions are obtained using shooting and bvp4c Matlab solver. The comparison of solutions shows excellent agreement. To examine the effects of principal flow parameters like suction/injection, the Eckert number, and solid volume fraction, different graphs are plotted and discussed. It is concluded that entropy generation inside the boundary layer of a hybrid nanofluid is high compared to a convectional nanofluid.

A significant assessment of two unequal classes of chemical reaction for the incompressible flow

Mumtaz Khan, Dianchen Lu

Summary: This article numerically investigates the time-dependent fractional non-Newtonian fluid model on a vertical plane in a Darcy medium. A generalized Scott-Bliar model is employed to control the flow and mass transfer in the boundary layer region. The analysis shows that the fractional exponent significantly affects the concentration of chemical species and provides insights into the chemical process in the fractional Casson fluid model.

Nonsimilar convection analysis of single and multilayer carbon nanotubes based nanofluid flow over a vertical cone in a complex porous media subjected to thermal radiations and chemical reaction

Raheela Razzaq, Umer Farooq, Mohammed Aldandani

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.

Non-similar investigation of magnetized boundary layer flow of nanofluid with the effects of Joule heating, viscous dissipation and heat source/sink

Saman Riaz, Nitasha Naheed, Umer Farooq, Dianchen Lu, Muzamil Hussain

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.

Analysis of Homogeneous/Heterogeneous Reactions in an Electrohydrodynamic Environment Utilizing the Second Law

Farida Aslam, Saima Noreen, Muhammad Idrees Afridi, Muhammad Qasim

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.

Heat transfer and flow analysis over a linearly stretching sheet with constant wall temperature: Novel local non-similar solutions in the presence of viscous heating

Muhammad Idrees Afridi, Zhi-Min Chen, Nadia Riaz, Muhammad Qasim

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.

Computational analysis of entropy generation in three-dimensional mixed convection flow with thermal dissipation and variable thermal conductivity

Muhammad Idrees Afridi, Muhammad Qasim, Ali J. Chamkha

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.
