Radiation Effects on Marangoni Boundary Layer Flow Past a Flat Plate in Nanofluid

چکیده
Abstract— The problem of Marangoni convection boundary layer flow in nanofluid with radiation effects is studied using different types of nanoparticles. The general governing partial differential equations are transformed into a set of two nonlinear ordinary differential equations using unique similarity transformation. Numerical solutions of the similarity equations are obtained using the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. Three different types of nanoparticles, namely Cu, Al2O3, and TiO2 are considered by using water as a base fluid with Prandtl number Pr = 6.2. The effects of radiation parameter on the heat transfer characteristics are discussed.

متن کاملThe Effect of Square Splittered and Unsplittered Rods in Flat Plate Heat Transfer Enhancement
A square splittered and unsplittered rod is placed in a turbulent boundary layer developed over a flat plate. The effect of the resulting disturbances on the local heat transfer coefficient is then studied. In both cases the square rod modifies the flow structure inside the boundary layer. As a result, a stagnation point, a jet and wake area are generated around the square rod, each making a co...
