On Darcy-Forchheimer flow of carbon nanotubes due to a rotating disk

Here we are concerned with the Darcy-Forchheimer three-dimensional flow of carbon nanotubes in a rotating frame. Flow is generated by stretching of the surface. Xue model is adopted for nanofluid transport mechanism. Results for single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi wall carbon nanotubes are achieved and compared. Flow saturating porous space obeys Darcy-Forchheimer expression. Boundary layer approximations are invoked to simplify governing partial differential system. Optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM) is utilized for solutions of governing model. The optimal values of auxiliary parameters are computed. Plots have been displayed in order to analyze how the velocities and temperature fields get affected by various flow parameters. Skin-friction coefficients and local Nusselt number are presented through numerical data for both SWCNTs and MWCNTs. Moreover the skin-friction coefficients and local Nusselt number are enhanced for larger values of nanoparticles volume fraction.

Entropy generation minimization: Darcy-Forchheimer nanofluid flow due to curved stretching sheet with partial slip

The present work studies the MHD two-dimensional flow of Maxwell liquid over a stretched surface moving with linear velocity. Convective heat phenomenon characterizes the heat transfer process. Induced electric and magnetic fields are absent. The set of partial differential equations governing the Darcy–Forchheimer flow of Maxwell liquid is derived. Computations for strong nonlinear systems are presented after non-dimensionalization. Convergent relations for velocity and temperature distributions are achieved. Besides this local Nusselt number is computed and analyzed. Our findings reveal that the temperature field has an inverse relationship with the thermal relaxation parameter and Prandtl number.

This research describes mixed convective Maxwell nanoliquid stretching flow subject to Newtonian heating. Porous medium characteristics are elaborated utilizing non-Darcian relation. Modeling is based on Brownian movement, heat generation, thermophoresis and chemical reaction aspects. Boundary-layer idea is employed for simplification of governing expressions. Optimal homotopy algorithm is implemented for computations of nonlinear problems. Besides, the Sherwood and Nusselt numbers along with temperature, velocity and nanoparticle concentration are analyzed. Our outcomes reveal opposite characteristics for porosity factor and Deborah number against velocity field.
