Investigation on Thermally Radiative Mixed Convective Flow of Carbon Nanotubes/Al(2)O(3) Nanofluid in Water Past a Stretching Plate with Joule Heating and Viscous Dissipation

The nature of this prevailing inquisition is to scrutinize the repercussion of MHD mixed convective flow of CNTs/ [Formula: see text] nanofluid in water past a heated stretchy plate with injection/suction, heat consumption and radiation. The Joule heating and viscous dissipation are included in our investigation. The Navier–Stokes equations are implemented to frame the governing flow expressions. These flow expressions are non-dimensioned by employing suitable transformations. The converted flow expressions are computed numerically by applying the MATLAB bvp4c procedure and analytically by the HAM scheme. The impacts of relevant flow factors on fluid velocity, fluid temperature, skin friction coefficient, and local Nusselt number are illustrated via graphs, tables and charts. It is unequivocally shown that the fluid speed declines when escalating the size of the magnetic field parameter; however, it is enhanced by strengthening the Richardson number. The fluid warmness shows a rising pattern when enriching the Biot number and heat consumption/generation parameter. The findings conclusively demonstrate that the surface drag force improves for a larger scale of Richardson number and is suppressed when heightening the unsteady parameter. In addition, it is evident from the outcomes that the heat transfer gradient decreases to increase the quantity of the Eckert number in the convective heating case; however, the opposite nature is obtained in the convective cooling case. Our numerical results are novel, unique and applied in microfluid devices such as micro-instruments, sleeve electrodes, nerve growth electrodes, etc.
