Abstract
This paper studies the two-dimensional unsteady incompressible Ag-water and CuO-water nanofluid flow in a semi-porous expanding-contracting channel in the presence of thermal radiation effect. The continuity equation, Navier-Stokes equation, and energy equation governing the model are transformed into a set of non-dimensional ordinary differential equations using appropriate transformations. These dimensionless governing equations are solved using power series with the aid of the Hermite-Padé approximation method. The influences of physical parameters such as Reynolds number, expansion ratio, solid volume fraction, Prandtl number, Magnetic parameter, and shape factor are depicted in velocity and temperature profiles. Moreover, the average Nusselt number and skin friction coefficient are also investigated with the effect of Reynolds number, solid volume fraction, and expansion ratio. It is observed that the heat transfer rate decreases significantly as the shape factor increases.
期刊介绍:
Defect and Diffusion Forum (formerly Part A of ''''Diffusion and Defect Data'''') is designed for publication of up-to-date scientific research and applied aspects in the area of formation and dissemination of defects in solid materials, including the phenomena of diffusion. In addition to the traditional topic of mass diffusion, the journal is open to papers from the area of heat transfer in solids, liquids and gases, materials and substances. All papers are peer-reviewed and edited. Members of Editorial Boards and Associate Editors are invited to submit papers for publication in “Defect and Diffusion Forum” . Authors retain the right to publish an extended and significantly updated version in another periodical.
