Natural convection in nanofluid flow with chemotaxis process over a vertically inclined heated surface

The thermal energy transport analysis with chemotaxis in the free convective flow of viscous nanofluid over stretchable vertically inclined heated sheet is addressed in this article. The fluid forced and free convection motion is investigated and discussed with physical reasoning. The fluid also contains microorganism heavy-bottom species, and their chemotactic motion is studied. In the light of Buongiorno model, the impact of Brownian motion and thermophoresis slip mechanism on thermal conduction in the nanofluid is analyzed. The work is based on the similarity analysis of governing partial differential equations (PDEs) which lead to non-dimensional ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The solution of resulting flow and heat equations is computed via bvp4c technique. The outcomes are represented in graphical abstract. It is noted that free convective flow field increases near to the surface of sheet then it decays to free stream exponentially. Higher magnitude of thermophoretic force boost up the thermal energy transport in nanofluid flow. The Brownian motion enhances temperature profile and lower down the convection velocity. Chemotaxis motion of species in nanofluid is increasing function of bioconvective Peclet number.

Convective flow of a Maxwell hybrid nanofluid due to pressure gradient in a channel

In this work, analytical solution of hybrid Maxwell nanofluid of the vertical channel due to pressure gradient is discussed. By introducing dimensionless variables the governing equations with all levied initial and boundary conditions is converted into dimensionless form. Fractional model for Maxwell fluid is developed by Caputo time fractional differential operator by using the constitutive relation. The dimensionless expression for temperature and velocity are found using Laplace transform. Draw graphs of temperature and velocity by Mathcad software and discuss the behavior of flow parameters and the effect of fractional parameters. As a result, we have found by increasing the volumetric fraction of copper and alumina temperature increases and velocity decreases. Also, fluid flow properties showed dual behavior for small and large time, respectively, by increasing fractional parameters values.
