Effect of Viscous Dissipation and Joule Heating on Magnetohydrodynamic Jeffery Nanofluid Flow With and Without Multi Slip Boundary Conditions

摘要

This paper numerically explores the effect of viscous dissipation and Joule heating on magnetohydrodynamic radiative Jeffery nanofluid flow over a horizontal stretching surface by considering with and without multi slip boundary conditions. The governing coupled nonlinear momentum, thermal and species boundary layer equations are rendered into a system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations with suitable boundary conditions. The well-posed, dimensionless boundary value problem is then solved numerically by adopting fourth order Runge-Kutta method integrated with shooting technique. A comprehensive study on the influence of significant thermo-physical dimensionless parameters governing the flow for velocity, temperature and concentration distributions is conducted. Finally, the numerical computation of skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number for selected parameters are presented. Verification of numerical solutions is accomplished with some limiting cases documented in previously reported results, a very good correlation is witnessed. This present investigation is of great interests relevant to cooling of metallic plates, polishing of artificial heart valves, enhanced oil recovery and separation processes in chemical industries and petroleum extraction.
