Numerical exploration of forced convection hydromagnetic hyperbolic tangent nanofluid flow over a permeable wedge with melting heat transfer

In this communication, the joint impacts of the process of melting as well as wedge angle entity on hydromagnetic hyperbolic tangent nanofluid flow owing to permeable wedge-shaped surface in the incidence of suspended nanoparticles along with radiation, Soret and Dufour numbers are scrutinized. The mathematical model which represents the system consists of a system of highly non-linear coupled partial differential equations. These equations are solved using a finite-difference-based MATLAB solver which implements the Lobatto IIIa collocation formula and is fourth-order accurate. Further, the comparison of computed results is carried out with the previously reported articles and outstanding conformity is recorded. Emerged physical entities affecting the bearings of tangent hyperbolic MHD nanofluid velocity, distribution of temperature, and concentration of nanoparticles are visualized in graphs. In another line, shearing stress, the surface gradient of heat transfer, and volumetric rate of concentration are recorded in tabular form. Most interestingly, momentum boundary layer thickness and thicknesses of thermal as well as solutal boundary layers enhance with an increment of Weissenberg number. Moreover, an increment on tangent hyperbolic nanofluid velocity and decrement on the thickness of momentum boundary layer is visualized for the increment of numerical values of power-law index entity, which can determine the behavior of shear-thinning fluids.This study has applications for coating materials used in chemical engineering, such as strong paints, aerosol manufacturing, and thermal treatment of water-soluble solutions.
