Steady two dimensional MHD laminar free convective boundary layer flows of an electrically conducting Newtonian nanofluid over a solid stationary vertical plate in a quiescent fluid taking into account the Newtonian heating boundary condition is investigated numerically. A magnetic field can be used to control the motion of an electrically conducting fluid in micro/nano scale systems used for t...

The focus of this manuscript is on two-dimensional mixed convection non-Newtonian nanofluid flow near stagnation point over a stretched surface with convectively heated boundary conditions. modeled equation representing nonlinear transformed into system ordinary differential equations by implementing appropriate similarity transformations. generated structure numerically solved applying the bvp...

Pool boiling heat transfer characteristics of Al2O3 -water nanofluids is studied experimentally using a NiCr test wire of 36 standard wire guage diameter. The experimental work mainly concentrated on (1) change of critical heat flux with different volume concentrations of nanofluid and (2) flow visualization of pool boiling using a fixed concentration of nanofluid at different heat flux values....

In this Letter, dynamic wetting of water nano-droplets containing non-surfactant gold nanoparticles on a gold substrate is examined via molecular dynamics simulations. The results show that the addition of non-surfactant nanoparticles hinders the nano-second droplet wetting process, attributed to the increases in both surface tension of the nanofluid and friction between nanofluid and substrate...

Presently, the scientists across world are carrying out theoretical as well experimental examinations for describing importance of nanofluid in heat transfer phenomena. Such fluids can be obtained by suspending nanoparticles base fluid. Experimentally, it has proved that thermal characteristics much better and appealing compared to traditional The current work investigates flow blood comprises ...

This study explains the effect of magnetic field stagnation point flow a water-based nanofluid graphene oxide-water (GO-W) and oxide-ethylene glycol (GO-EG). Heat transfer analyses are discussed by converting given partial differential equation into nonlinear ordinary using similarity transformation solved an approximate analytical method, namely, optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM), to obt...

The Prandtl number dependence of unsteady laminar natural convection along an infinite vertical plate in a thermally stratified fluid is investigated. Flows are induced by an impulsive (step) change in plate temperature and by a suddenly imposed plate heat flux. Analytical solutions of the viscous equations of motion and thermodynamic energy are obtained for Prandtl numbers near unity by the me...
