The HPM Applied to MHD Nanofluid Flow over a Horizontal Stretching Plate
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nonlinear two-dimensional forced-convection boundary-layer magneto hydrodynamic MHD incompressible flow of nanofluid over a horizontal stretching flat plate with variable magnetic field including the viscous dissipation effect is solved using the homotopy perturbation method HPM . In the present work, our results of the HPM are compared with the results of simulation using the finite difference method, Keller’s box-scheme. The comparisons of the results show that the HPM has the capability of solving the nonlinear boundary layer MHD flow of nanofluid with sufficient accuracy.

In this study, the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow in a nanofluid was investigated. The Navier–Stokes equations were reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transform. The similarity equations were solved for three types of nanoparticles: copper, alumina and titania with water as the base fluid, to inve...
