The effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis have been included in this study. By using similarity transformations, the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are obtained from the governing partial differential equations (PDEs). Then by using a Runge-Kutta (R-K) method coupled with a shooting technique, numerical solutions are obtained. The effects of the relevant physical parameters on the velocity, the temperature, and the nanoparticle volume fraction are analyzed. When the magnitude of the thermal buoyancy parameter and solutal buoyancy parameter increase, the fluid velocity initially rises rapidly and then diminishes. But the temperature and concentration fields reduce. Near the plate, the fluid velocity is found to enhance with increasing values of the thermo-quadratic convection parameter as well as with the rising values of the solutal-quadratic convection parameter. However, both the temperature and the nanoparticle volume fraction reduce. The results of this study are interesting and motivating for further investigations on the problem for different situations and with different geometries.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":44939,"journal":{"name":"Heat Transfer","volume":"54 2","pages":"1394-1419"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143380719","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite extensive research into thermal management solutions for PV panels, there remains a gap in optimizing passive cooling systems, particularly air-cooled heat sinks, to achieve effective heat dissipation. This study addresses the challenge by conducting a detailed computational analysis of air-cooled heat sinks with varying fin configurations to enhance the thermal regulation of PV panels. Using computational fluid dynamics simulations, this work evaluates the influence of fin number and spacing on airflow dynamics and heat dissipation efficiency. Key findings from ANSYS Postprocessor simulations indicate that heat sinks with a higher number of fins improve heat dissipation, with the 11-fin configuration demonstrating the highest temperature drop of 38.44 K. Comparatively, the base model (nine fins, 0.05 m fin spacing) exhibited a maximum temperature of 331.46 K and a mean velocity of 1.58 m/s. A parametric study of finless designs showed a lower mean temperature of 321.28 K, but with significantly reduced airflow velocity. Intermediate designs, such as the six-fin and seven-fin heat sinks, also demonstrated improved thermal performance over the finless model but were outperformed by the 11-fin configuration. This study contributes to the ongoing efforts to optimize passive cooling for PV solar panels by demonstrating the critical impact of fin number on heat sink effectiveness. The findings offer valuable insights into the design of more efficient cooling mechanisms, potentially enhancing both the performance and longevity of PV systems.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":44939,"journal":{"name":"Heat Transfer","volume":"54 2","pages":"1462-1475"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143380974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flow occurs along a vertical impermeable flat plate immersed in a fluid-saturated porous medium. Numerical methods are used to convert the governing partial differential equations to gather the locally equivalent ordinary differential equations. Local similarity solutions also visually depict the velocity distribution and microrotation (<i>ω</i>) in the boundary layer. Furthermore, the influence of the physical variables on the flow field is investigated. The numerical results show that the effect of porosity (<i>ε</i>) on the velocity profile demonstrates a negative correlation between <i>ε</i> and velocity. The correlation between microrotation (<i>ω</i>) involving the <i>ε</i> influence also depends on the similarity parameter (<i>η</i>). Although microrotation (<i>ω</i>) increases with porosity (<i>ε</i>) in the region where the fluid is near the surface, this trend changes as the flow moves further away from the surface. The dimensionless microrotation (<i>ω</i>) value remains constant, while rotation is not observed for the similarity parameter (<i>η</i>) values exceeding 4.5. The value of microrotation (<i>ω</i>) value is small for the similarity parameter (<i>η</i>) values in the interval (0 &lt; <i>η</i> &lt; 1.4). Nonetheless, the microrotation (<i>ω</i>) value is high for the similarity parameter (<i>η</i>) values up to <i>η</i> = 4.5. Therefore, the point at <i>η</i> = 1.4 represents a crucial point in the present study. The results of the present study have been validated, and the comparison with related articles showed an excellent matching between results.
