Impact of partial slip on the radiative conducting nanofluid flow through an expanding sheet for the interaction of heat source/sink

Abstract

Based on the recent industrial need for the production processes the use of nanofluid is important because of its higher conductivity properties that enhance the heat transport phenomenon. Therefore, present investigation deals with the characteristics of partial-slip for the Buongirnio model nanofluid flow via a non-permeable expanding sheet. An electrically conducting fluid for the interaction of thermal radiation at prescribed surface temperature along with the Brownian and thermophoresis affecting the flow properties significantly. However, the governing PDEs (“partial differential equations”) are get rid into their corresponding ODEs (“ordinary differential equations”) in the nonlinear for with the suitable choice of similarity transformation. “Adomian Decomposition Method” (ADM), an approximate analytical approach is imposed to find the solution of the distorted equations and further, parametric behavior for the contributing parameters is exhibited graphically. The conformity of the present solution with previously established result is deliberated. However, the main findings are; the slip velocity favors for the significant deceleration in the fluid momentum along with the enhanced suction parameter further, remarkable growth in t fluid temperature is rendered with the augmentation in the thermal radiation and the cross diffusion parameters such as Brownian and thermophoresis.
