this article deals with the study of the two-dimensional mixed convection magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow over a stretching vertical plate in porous medium filled with a nanofluid. the model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of brownian motion and thermophoresis in the presence of thermal radiation. the skin-friction coefficient, nusselt number an...

We investigate the constant-wall-temperature convective heat-transfer characteristics of a model gaseous flow in two-dimensional micro and nano-channels under hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed conditions. Our investigation covers both the slip-flow regime 0<Kn<0.1, and most of the transition regime 0.1,Kn<10, where Kn, the Knudsen number, is defined as the ratio between the molecul...

This paper reports the results of a numerical analysis of the influence of various parameters for the combined free and forced convection problem in a vented cavity with a centered heat generating element. Forced convection flow conditions are imposed by providing an inlet at the bottom of the left vertical wall and an outlet opening at the top of the opposite sidewall. Numerical solutions of t...

An approach is performed following finite element technique for MHD flow of viscous incompressible and electrically conducting fluid around a heat conducting solid block placed in a ventilated enclosure. A uniform transverse magnetic field is imposed in the opposite direction of flow perpendicular to the right vertical wall. Reynolds number and Prandtl number effects are investigated on flow an...

This paper investigates the enhancement of heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number of a nanofluid containing nanoparticles (γ-AL2O3) with a particle size of 20 nm and volume fraction of 0.1%-0.3% (V/V). Effects of temperature and concentration of nanoparticles on Nusselt number changes and heat transfer coefficient in a double pipe heat exchanger with counter turbulent flow are investigate...
