TL;DR: In this article, an attempt is made to study nonlinear radiation and chemical reactive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of nanofluid, which comprises water and copper (Cu) and silver (Ag) as nanoparticles.
Abstract: An attempt is accomplished to study nonlinear radiation and chemical reactive magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of nanofluid. Nanofluid comprises water and copper (Cu) and silver (Ag) as nanoparticles. Effect of porous medium is also taken into account. Characteristics of heat and mass transfers are discussed via homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions. Correlation behavior of surface drag force and heat transfer rate is discussed. Probable error and statistical declaration for drag force and heat transfer rate are computed. Ordinary differential systems have been considered. Solutions of the problem are presented via a numerical technique namely Euler’s Explicit Method (EEM). The key roles of different embedded parameters on different characteristics of fluid are discussed graphically. The outcomes of the given problem demonstrate that non-linear radiation has noteworthy effect on both temperature and heat transfer coefficient.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors exploit the coupling of adjacent phonon-polaritonic nanostructures, demonstrating experimentally that the nanometer-scale gaps can control the thermal emission frequency while retaining emission line widths as narrow as 10 cm-1.
Abstract: A conventional thermal emitter exhibits a broad emission spectrum with a peak wavelength depending upon the operation temperature. Recently, narrowband thermal emission was realized with periodic gratings or single microstructures of polar crystals supporting distinct optical modes. Here, we exploit the coupling of adjacent phonon-polaritonic nanostructures, demonstrating experimentally that the nanometer-scale gaps can control the thermal emission frequency while retaining emission line widths as narrow as 10 cm–1. This was achieved by using deeply subdiffractional bowtie-shaped silicon carbide nanoantennas. Infrared far-field reflectance spectroscopy, near-field optical nanoimaging, and full-wave electromagnetic simulations were employed to prove that the thermal emission originates from strongly localized surface phonon-polariton resonances of nanoantenna structures. The observed narrow emission line widths and exceptionally small modal volumes provide new opportunities for the user-design of near- and...

TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended the classical problem of the motion of a one-dimensional unsteady shock generated by a piston moving with velocity vp = ctn to take into account thermal radiation effects.
Abstract: The classical problem of the motion of a one-dimensional unsteady shock generated by a piston moving with velocity vp = ctn is extended to take into account thermal radiation effects by the similarity method of Taylor and Sedov. Gray gas and local thermodynamic equilibrium are assumed and a modification of the Schuster-Schwarzschild differential equation for the heat flux is adopted. The optical thickness is not restricted to be thin or thick, and the absorption coefficient is assumed to vary with the density and temperature. Numerical results indicate that the pressure and velocity are not affected much by the radiation, but the density, temperature and radiant heat flux are changed considerably.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydromagnetic boundary layer flow past a moving vertical plate in nanofluids in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field and thermal radiation has been carried out.
Abstract: An investigation of the hydromagnetic boundary layer flow past a moving vertical plate in nanofluids in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field and thermal radiation has been carried out. Three different types of water-based nanofluids containing copper, aluminum oxide and titanium dioxide are taken into consideration. The governing equations are solved using Laplace transform technique and the solutions are presented in closed form. The numerical values of nanofluid temperature, velocity, the rate of heat transfer and the shear stress at the plate are presented graphically for several values of the pertinent parameters. The present study finds applications in engineering devices.
