Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer of Nanofluids over a Flat Plate with Conjugate Heat Transfer

The falling and settling of solid particles in gases and liquids is a natural phenomenon happens in many industrial processes. This phenomenon has altered pure forced convection to a combination of heat conduction and heat convection in a flow over a plate. In this paper, the coupling of conduction (inside the plate) and forced convection of a non-homogeneous nanofluid flow (over a flat plate) ...

Magnetohydrodynamic Free Convection Flows with Thermal Memory over a Moving Vertical Plate in Porous Medium

The unsteady hydro-magnetic free convection flow with heat transfer of a linearly viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting fluid near a moving vertical plate with the constant heat is investigated. The flow domain is the porous half-space and a magnetic field of a variable direction is applied. The Caputo time-fractional derivative is employed in order to introduce a thermal flux consti...

Boundary layer Viscous Flow of Nanofluids and Heat Transfer Over a Nonlinearly Isothermal Stretching Sheet in the Presence of Heat Generation/Absorption and Slip Boundary Conditions

The steady two-dimensional flow of a viscous nanofluid of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow and heattransfer characteristics for the boundary layer flow over a nonlinear stretching sheet is considered. Theflow is caused by a nonlinear stretching sheet with effects of velocity, temperature and concentrationslips. Problem formulation is developed in the pre...
