Heat transfer in a porous medium over a stretching surface with internal heat generation and suction or injection has been analyzed numerically in the presence of radiation. In this analysis, the governing equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations and solved them numerically using Nachtsheim-Swigert shooting iteration technique. The local similarity solutions fo...

This work aims to provide a comprehensive study on the heat transfer and entropy generation rates of a horizontal channel partially filled with a porous medium which experiences internal heat generation or consumption due to exothermic or endothermic chemical reaction. The focus has been given to the local thermal nonequilibrium (LTNE) model. The LTNE approach helps us to deliver more accurate ...

Numerical investigation of the effects of magnetic field strength, thermal radiation, Joule heating, and viscous heating on a forced convective flow of a non-Newtonian, incompressible power law fluid in an axisymmetric stretching sheet with variable temperature wall is accomplished. The power law shear thinning viscosity-shear rate model for the anisotropic solutions and the Rosseland approxima...

This paper aims to perform the second law analysis of thermodynamics on the laminar film condensation of pure saturated vapor flowing in the direction of gravity on an ellipsoid with variable wall temperature. The analysis provides us understanding how the geometric parameterellipticity and non-isothermal wall temperature variation amplitude “A.” affect entropy generation during film-wise conde...

in this study, mixed convection heat transfer and local and global entropy generation in aventilated square cavity have been investigated numerically. the natural convection effect isachieved by a constant heat flux imposed at the bottom wall and cooled by injecting a coldfollow. in order to investigate the effect of port location, four different placementconfigurations of the inlet and outlet ...

Entropy generation due to viscous incompressible MHD forced convective dissipative fluid flow through a horizontal channel of finite depth in the existence of an inclined magnetic field and heat source effect has been examined. The governing non-linear partial differential equations for momentum, energy and entropy generation are derived and solved by using the analytical method. In addition; t...
