TL;DR: In this article, the influence of nonlinear thermal radiation (via the Rosseland diffusion flux model) has been studied on the laminar, incompressible, dissipative peristaltic propulsive flow of a non-Newtonian (Jefferys viscoelastic) dusty fluid containing solid particles through a porous planar channel.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation of forced convection of FMWNT-water nano-fluid in a micro-channel under a magnetic field in slip flow regime is performed.
Abstract: Simulation of forced convection of FMWNT-water (functionalized multi-walled carbon nano-tubes) nano-fluid in a micro-channel under a magnetic field in slip flow regime is performed. The micro-channel wall is divided into two portions. The micro-channel entrance is insulated while the rest of length of the micro-channel has constant temperature ( T C ). Moreover, the micro-channel domain is exposed to a magnetic field with constant strength of B 0 . High temperature nano-fluid ( T H ) enters the micro-channel and exposed to its cold walls. Slip velocity boundary condition along the walls of the micro-channel is considered. Governing equations are numerically solved using FORTRAN computer code based on the SIMPLE algorithm. Results are presented as the velocity, temperature, and Nusselt number profiles. Greater Reynolds number, Hartmann number, and volume fraction related to more heat transfer rate; however, the effects of Ha and ϕ are more noteworthy at higher Re.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the problem of convection heat transfer in an inclined square enclosure filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium in the presence of a transverse magnetic field and fluid heat generation effects.
Abstract: The problem of unsteady, laminar, two-dimensional hydromagnetic natural convection heat transfer in an inclined square enclosure filled with a fluid-saturated porous medium in the presence of a transverse magnetic field and fluid heat generation effects is studied numerically. The walls of the enclosure are maintained at constant temperatures. The flow in the porous region is modeled using the Brinkman-extended Darcy's law to account for the no-slip conditions at the walls. The control volume method is used to solve the governing balance equations for different values of the Darcy number, Hartmann number, and the inclination angle. Favorable comparisons with previously published work are performed. These comparisons confirmed the correctness of the numerical results. The obtained numerical results are presented graphically in terms of streamlines and isotherms as well as velocity and temperature profiles at midsections of the cavity to illustrate interesting features of the solution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the Rayleigh number (between 10 4 and 10 6 ), Hartmann number, magnetic inclination angle (between 0° and 90°), thermal conductivity of the partition, and solid volume fraction of the nanoparticle on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics was studied.
