Abstract
In this manuscript, the impact of Soret and Dufour numbers on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow for Silver (Ag) and Copper (Cu) water-based nanofluids past a moving plate over a porous medium are investigated numerically. The influences of heat sources and chemical reactions are also considered, as their applications are prevalent in several industries. The flow's constituents' governing equations are coupled with Partial differential equations (PDEs) that are converted into a dimensionless form using appropriate flow parameters. Subsequently, the finite-difference technique is used to resolve the resulting equations. The varied effects of flow parameters on the momentum, temperature, and concentration boundary layers are investigated using various graphs. The results presented in terms of non-dimensional parameters like shear stress factor, Sherwood number, and Nusselt number of fluids are tabulated for the nanofluids Ag-water and Cu-water. It is found that the augmented values of Dufour and Soret numbers enhance the fluid velocity. However, the species concentration decreases in the existence of Dufour and chemical reaction effects.
期刊介绍:
Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry is an international and interdisciplinary research journal that focuses on all aspects of nanoscience, bioscience and applied chemistry. Submissions are solicited in all topical areas, ranging from basic aspects of the science materials to practical applications of such materials. With 6 issues per year, the first one published on the 15th of February of 2011, Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry is an open-access journal, making all research results freely available online. The aim is to publish original papers, short communications as well as review papers highlighting interdisciplinary research, the potential applications of the molecules and materials in the bio-field. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible.
