Peristaltic Pumping of Nanofluids through a Tapered Channel in a Porous Environment: Applications in Blood Flow

TL;DR: It was observed that the geometric parameters, like amplitudes, non-uniform parameters and phase difference, play an important role in controlling the nanofluids transport phenomena.

MHD Mixed Convective Boundary Layer Flow of a Nanofluid through a Porous Medium due to an Exponentially Stretching Sheet

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the governing parameters on the flow field and heat transfer characteristics were obtained and discussed graphically, and numerical solutions for the wall skin friction coefficient, the heat and mass transfer coefficient, and the velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles were computed and analyzed graphically.

47nm alumina–water nanofluid flow within boundary layer formed on upper horizontal surface of paraboloid of revolution in the presence of quartic autocatalysis chemical reaction

TL;DR: In this article, a modified version of buoyancy-induced model is considered to investigate the flow of 47nm alumina-water nanofluid along an upper surface of horizontal paraboloid of revolution in the presence of nonlinear thermal radiation, Lorentz force and quartic autocatalysis kind of homogeneous heterogeneous chemical reaction.

Modern development on the features of magnetic field and heat sink/source in Maxwell nanofluid subject to convective heat transport

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical relation for two dimensional flow of magnetite Maxwell nanofluid influenced by a stretched cylinder is established to visualize the stimulus of Brownian moment and thermophoresis phenomena on Maxwell fluid.

MHD flow and heat transfer of hybrid nanofluid over a permeable moving surface in the presence of thermal radiation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a hybrid nanofluid (Cu-Al2O3/water) in the presence of magnetohydrodynamics and thermal radiation over a permeable moving surface.
