Magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer impact on ZnO-SAE50 nanolubricant flow over an inclined rotating disk

The present article has been fine-tuned with the investigation of mixed convection Darcy-Forchheimer flow of ZnO-SAE50 oil nanolubricant over an inclined rotating disk under the influence of uniform applied magnetic field applied to various industries.The current study has been enriched with additional consideration of slip flow,thermal radiation,viscous dissipation,Joulian dissipation and internal heating.In view of augmentation of thermal conductivity of nanolubricant,a new micro-nano-convection model namely Patel model has been invoked.The specialty of this model involves the effects of specific surface area and nano-convection due to Brownian motion of nanoparticles,kinetic theory based micro-convection,liquid layering and particle concentration.Suitably transformed governing equations have been solved numerically by using Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg scheme.An analysis of the present study has shown that applied magnetic field,porosity of the medium,velocity slip and inertia coefficient account for the slowing down of radial as well as tangential flow of ZnO-SAE50 oil nanolubricant,thereby leading to an improvement in velocity and thermal boundary layers.

Novel Analytical Thermal Performance Rate Analysis in ZnO-SAE50 Nanolubricant: Nonlinear Mathematical Model

The investigation of local thermal transport rate in the nanolubricants is significant.These lubricants are broadly used in environmental pollution,mechanical engineering and in the paint industry due to high thermal performance rate.Therefore,thermal transport in ZnO-SAE50 nanolubricant under the impacts of heat generation/absorption is conducted.The colloidal suspension is flowing between parallel stretching disks in which the lower disk is positioned at z=0 and upper disk apart from distance d.The problem is transformed in dimensionless version via described similarity transforms.In the next stage,an analytical technique(VPM)is implemented for the solution purpose.The graphical results against multiple flow parameters were furnished over the region of interest and explained comprehensively.It is imperative to mention that the results are plotted for ZnO-SAE50 and conventional liquid as well.Further,rapid motion of the fluid is perceived against high Reynolds andγparameters.The wall shear stresses at the upper end rises for multiple Reynolds andγwhile;decrement is detected at the lower end.The significant contribution of an internal heat source is noted for thermal performance rate at the upper end.Foremost,the local heat transport rate declines at the lower disk.By altering Reynolds number,prompt heat transfer rate is gained at the upper disk and increasing behavior of the local heat transport rate is slow at the lower disk.From the study,it is concluded that the nanolubricants have high thermal characteristics.Therefore,such fluids are reliable to use in above stated areas.

3D radiative convective flow of ZnO-SAE50nano-lubricant in presence of varying magnetic field and heterogeneous reactions

A numerical simulation is presented to investigate the effect of an exponentially varying magnetic field on three dimensional flow of Zinc Oxide-Society of Automotive Engineers 50 nanolubricant(ZnO-SAE50nano-lubricant)past a stretching sheet.Subsequently the impact of homogenous and heterogeneous reactions on the flow of nanolubricant concerned has also taken into account.The study has been strengthened by introducing the convection mechanism and the effect of thermal radiation.Similarity transformations are employed to transform the set of partial governing equations into the set of ordinary differential equations.The suitable boundary conditions are used to obtain the numerical solution.The numerical results are simulated using Matlab bvp4c solver and validated with the existing results.The flow characteristics,thermal characteristics,nanoparticle concentration and some non-dimensional numbers are computed under the influence of the pertinent parameters.The valuable outcome of the current study is that augmented magnetic field strength is the root cause of diminishing axial as well as transverse velocities and growing trend of fluid temperature.Also,the coeffi-cients of homogenous and heterogeneous reactions are boons for ascending concentration boundary layer.
