Analysis of Magneto-hydrodynamics Jeffery-Hamel Flow with Nanoparticles by Hermite-Padé Approximation

Authors

Abstract:

The combined effects of nanoparticle and magnetic field on the nonlinear Jeffery-Hamel flow are analyzed in the present study. The basic governing equations are solved analytically to nonlinear ordinary differential equation using perturbation method together with a semi-numerical analytical technique called Hermite- Padé approximation. The obtained results are well agreed with that of the Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The velocity profiles are presented in divergent channel for various values of nanoparticle solid volume fraction, Hartmann number, Reynolds number and channel angle. The relations between velocity field with Reynolds number and channel angle with the effect of nanoparticle solid volume fraction and Hartmann number are also performed qualitatively.

An Approximation of the Analytical Solution of the Jeffery-Hamel Flow by Homotopy Analysis Method

Paper the Jeffery-Hamel flow-a nonlinear equation of 3rd order-is studied by homotopy perturbation method. After introducing homotopy perturbation method and the way of obtaining Adomian’s polynomial, we solved the problem for divergent and convergent channel. Finally, velocity distribution and shear stress constant is depicted at various Reynolds numbers and comparing our results with some ear...

Heat Transfer Analysis of Nanofluid Flow with Porous Medium through Jeffery Hamel Diverging/Converging Channel

In this paper, flow and heat transfer of nanofluid through a converging or diverging channel with porous medium is investigated. The fluid constantly flows under the effect of magnetic field through the channel. The diverging/converging fluid motion is modeled using the momentum and energy equations. The influence of some parameters such as opening channel angle, Reynolds number and Darcy’s num...

Jeffery Hamel Flow of a non-Newtonian Fluid

This paper presents the Jeffery Hamel flow of a non-Newtonian fluid namely Casson fluid. Suitable similarity transform is applied to reduce governing nonlinear partial differential equations to a much simpler ordinary differential equation. Variation of Parameters Method (VPM) is then employed to solve resulting equation. Same problem is solved numerical by using Runge-Kutta order 4 method. A c...

A Note on Improved Homotopy Analysis Method for Solving the Jeffery-Hamel Flow

This paper presents the solution of the nonlinear equation that governs the flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid between two converging-diverging rigid walls using an improved homotopy analysis method. The results obtained by this new technique show that the improved homotopy analysis method converges much faster than both the homotopy analysis method and the optimal homotopy asymptotic meth...

A Case Study of Elliptic Functions in a CAS: Jeffery-Hamel Flow with Maple

Elliptic functions and integrals are not as widely known in the scientific populace as they have been in the past, even though they can still be used to solve an impressive array of applied problems. Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) have stepped into this knowledge gap and claim to provide access to many of the formulae that have proven so useful. This paper takes a classical problem in two-dimen...

Generalized Hermite-Padé approximation for Nikishin systems of three functions

Nikishin systems of three functions are considered. For such systems, the rate of convergence of simultaneous interpolating rational approximations with partially prescribed poles is studied. The solution is described in terms of the solution of a vector equilibrium problem in the presence of a vector external field.
