Consequences of Soret-Dufour Effects, Thermal Radiation, and Binary Chemical Reaction on Darcy Forchheimer Flow of Nanofluids
(Mdpi, 2020) Rasool, Ghulam; Baleanu, Dumitru; Shafiq, Anum; Baleanu, Dumitru; 56389; Matematik
This research article aims to investigate the consequences of binary chemical reaction, thermal radiation, and Soret-Dufour effects on a steady incompressible Darcy-Forchheimer flow of nanofluids. Stretching surface is assumed to drive the fluid along positive horizontal direction. Brownian motion, and the Thermophoresis are accounted in particular. The governing highly nonlinear system of problems which are advanced version of Navier-Stokes equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using appropriately adjusted transformations invoking symmetric property of the independent variables. The numerical approach using RK45 in connection with shooting technique is adopted to solve the final equations. Graphical approach is used to interpret the results and the values of important physical quantities are given in tabular data form. Velocity field, temperature distribution and concentration distribution are graphically analyzed for variation in respective fluid parameters. Furthermore, density graphs and stream lines are sketched for the present model. The outputs indicate a rise of temperature field in connection with thermal radiation parameter. A clear decline is noticed in velocity field for elevated values of Forchheimer number and porosity factor. The Dufour effect anticipates a rising factor for temperature distribution and the same is noticed for concentration distribution in lieu of Soret effect. Thermal radiation and binary chemical reaction has strong impact on heat transport mechanism. The results for physical quantities such as skin friction, heat and mass flux rates are given in tabular data form in last section of this study.

Entropy Generation and Consequences of MHD in Darcy-Forchheimer Nanofluid Flow Bounded by Non-Linearly Stretching Surface
(Mdpi, 2020) Rasool, Ghulam; Baleanu, Dumitru; Shafiq, Anum; Khan, Ilyas; Baleanu, Dumitru; Nisar, Kottakkaran Sooppy; Shahzadi, Gullnaz; 56389; Matematik
Present communication aims to inspect the entropy optimization, heat and mass transport in Darcy-Forchheimer nanofluid flow surrounded by a non-linearly stretching surface. Navier-Stokes model based governing equations for non-Newtonian nanofluids having symmetric components in various terms are considered. Non-linear stretching is assumed to be the driving force whereas influence of thermal radiation, Brownian diffusion, dissipation and thermophoresis is considered. Importantly, entropy optimization is performed using second law of thermodynamics. Governing problems are converted into nonlinear ordinary problems (ODEs) using suitably adjusted transformations. RK-45 based built-in shooting mechanism is used to solve the problems. Final outcomes are plotted graphically. In addition to velocity, temperature, concentration and Bejan number, the stream lines, contour graphs and density graphs have been prepared. For their industrial and engineering importance, results for wall-drag force, heat flux (Nusselt) rate and mass flux (Sherwood) rate are also given in tabular data form. Outputs indicate that velocity reduces for Forchheimer number as well as for the porosity factor. However, a rise is noted in temperature distribution for elevated values of thermal radiation. Entropy optimization shows enhancement for larger values of temperature difference ratio. Skin-friction enhances for all relevant parameters involved in momentum equation.

Finite Element Study of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and Activation Energy in Darcy-Forchheimer Rotating Flow of Casson Carreau Nanofluid
(Mdpi, 2020) Ali, Bagh; Baleanu, Dumitru; Rasool, Ghulam; Hussain, Sajjad; Baleanu, Dumitru; Bano, Sehrish; 56389; Matematik
Here, a study for MHD (magnetohydrodynamic) impacts on the rotating flow of Casson Carreau nanofluids is considered. The temperature distribution is associated with thermophoresis, Brownian motion, and heat source. The diffusion of chemically reactive specie is investigated with Arrhenius activation energy. The governing equations in the 3D form are changed into dimensionless two-dimensional form with the implementation of suitable scaling transformations. The Variational finite element procedure is harnessed and coded in Matlab script to obtain the numerical solution of the coupled non-linear partial differential problem. The variation patterns of Sherwood number, Nusselt number, skin friction coefficients, velocities, concentration, and temperature functions are computed to reveal the physical nature of this examination. It is seen that higher contributions of the magnetic force, Casson fluid, and rotational fluid parameters cause a raise in the temperature like thermophoresis and Brownian motion does but also causes a slowing down in the primary as well as secondary velocities. The FEM solutions show an excellent correlation with published results. The current study has significant applications in the biomedical, modern technologies of aerospace systems, and relevance to energy systems.

Significance of variability in magnetic field strength and heat source on the radiative-convective motion of sodium alginate-based nanofluid within a Darcy-Brinkman porous structure bounded vertically by an irregular slender surface
(Elsevier, 2021) Alghamdi, Metib; Baleanu, Dumitru; Wakif, A.; Thumma, Thirupathi; Khan, Umair; Baleanu, Dumitru; Rasool, Ghulam; 56389; Matematik
The dynamical behavior and thermal transportation feature of an enhanced MHD convective Casson bi-phasic flows of sodium alginate-based nanofluids are examined numerically in a Darcy-Brinkman medium bounded by a vertical elongating slender concave-shaped surface. The mathematical framework of the present flow model is developed properly by adopting the single-phase approach, whose solid phase is selected to be metallic or metallic oxide nanoparticles. Besides, the influence of thermal radiation is taken into consideration in the presence of an internal variable heat generation. A set of feasible similarity transformations are applied for the conversion of the governing PDEs into a nonlinear differential structure of coupled ODEs. An advanced differential quadrature algorithm is employed herein to acquire accurate numerical solutions for momentum and energy equations. For validating the obtained numerical findings, extensive comparison tests are carried out in this sense. The results of the current exploration show that the wall heat transfer rate and the frictional effect are strengthened with the loading of nanoparticles and weakened with the mounting values of the heat source parameters. However, the magnetic parameter exhibits a reverse trend concerning those engineering quantities. Statistically, the slope linear regression method (SLRM) proves that the aurum-sodium alginate nanofluid presents the higher frictional factor, whereas the copper oxide-sodium alginate is the more thermal performant nanofluid.
