In present work activation energy on 3D (“Three-Dimensional”) nanofluid (NFs) motion via stretching surface (SS) with slip condition: a statistical study. The slip velocity defined for NFs model are reduction in governing PDE’s were converted into a set of non-linear ODE’s by help of similarity transformations. Present Statistical model is taken three different systems: in which the statistical results are computed via R-K-F (“Range-Kutta-Fehlberg”) algorithm and tested these solutions with help of shooting technique and improved bvp 4th order analysis. Graphical comparisons and statistical (“Numerical”) tables are created to validation results for three different techniques. The emerging physical parameters on velocity (“axial and transverse directions”), $\theta \left(\eta \right)$ (“Temperature”) and $\phi \left(\eta \right)$ (“Concentration”). We found that, the $\theta \left(\eta \right)$ is more impact in NFs motion for enlarge statistical values of various physical parameters.

Arrhenius plots for activation energy of atomization in graphite-furnace atomic-absorption spectrometry

Activation energy plots drawn by use of various Arrhenius-type equations for atomization reactions in graphite-furnace atomic-absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) do not give reliable kinetic information about the atomization mechanism of the analyte element beyond a few data-points located near the very beginning of the absorbance signal profile. These plots are non-linear if they are drawn with data points near the maximum of the absorbance signal profile. This paper presents two Arrhenius-type equations which give linear plots over a long range of data-points, and hence reliable values for the activation energy. Also, a simple method is proposed for calculating the activation energy from the data-points anywhere from the initial appearance of the absorbance signal to its maximum. Activation energy values given by these two equations and by the method of calculation are compared with each other and with those given by the commonly used methods. The calculated activation energy values obtained can be used to verify those obtained experimentally. The three proposed methods also provide reliable kinetic information on atom-formation reactions in GFAAS. A mechanism for the atomization of copper, based on the experimentally determined activation energy and reaction order is proposed.

Effects of radiation on mixed convection stagnation-point flow of MHD third-grade nanofluid over a vertical stretching sheet

This paper considers the problem of the two-dimensional mixed convection stagnation-point flow of a magnetohydrodynamic non-Newtonian nanofluid bounded by a vertical stretching sheet. Convective surface boundary and zero surface nanoparticle mass flux conditions are employed. The effects of buoyancy, radiation, Brownian motion, thermophoresis, and viscous dissipation are taken into account. The stretching velocity is assumed to vary linearly with the distance from the stagnation point. The fluid is electrically conducted with uniform magnetic field, and the work done due to deformation is taken into consideration. The three-coupled partial differential boundary layer equations are reduced to ordinary differential equations by using proper similarity transformations. Analytical solution by homotopy analysis method is obtained. Effects of different physical parameters on the dynamics of the problem are analyzed and discussed.

     

Neuro-computing intelligent networks for entropy optimized MHD fully developed nanofluid flow with activation energy and slip effects

In this paper, the main focus of this research is to represent an intelligent computing model through an artificial backpropagated Levenberg-Marquardt neural network (ABP-LMNN) for entropy optimized magnetohydrodynamic fully developed nanofluid flow with slip and activation energy effects. In mathematical modeling, dimensionless non-linear ODEs represent the magnetohydrodynamic nanofluid flow model (MHD-NFM). A reference dataset of ABP-LMNN is constructed for diverse situations of MHD-NFM by discrepancy of parameters. The attained reference dataset (RD) is randomly utilized for validation, testing and training processes for ABP-LMNN are employed to examine the approximate solution of MHD-NFM is demonstrated by comparison of outcomes. The authentic performance of the ABP-LMNN is validated through accuracy in the phrase of error histogram, mean square error and regression learning. The thermal and solutal parameters upsurge both the thermal and the concentration gradients. Moreover, the velocity profiles are declined owing to an increase in the second-order slip parameter in the tangential direction of the flow.     

Diffusion of liquid hydrogen in time-dependent MHD mixed convective flow

An innovative study on liquid hydrogen diffusion in time-dependent mixed convection flow is carried out in the presence of magnetic field effects. In fact, this is the first approach to analyze such flow problems, and also this is the first research paper to study the non-uniform heat sink/source and nonlinear chemical reaction in the presence of liquid hydrogen diffusion. Initially, the governing equations are reduced to dimensionless form by using non-similar transformations and are linearized by applying quasilinearization technique. Then, the finite difference approximation is utilized to discretize the resulting equations. The mixed convection is analyzed along with exponentially stretching surface through various graphs on profiles as well as gradients. The results display that the non-uniform heat source parameter increases the fluid velocity as well as temperature, and the magnetic parameter reduces the friction at the wall. Specifically, the skin friction coefficient decreases about 40% in the presence of magnetic field. The mass transfer rate increases for high-order chemical reaction and for destructive chemical reaction rate. The mass transfer rate is found to be high for the diffusion of liquid nitrogen than that for the diffusion of liquid hydrogen. In fact, the mass transfer rate increases about 22% for the diffusion of liquid nitrogen. This study can assist the design engineers who are working in pertain to the diffusion of liquid gases in mixed convection regimes. Also, the obtained data in the present study can be more useful for future investigations about time-dependent mixed convection nanofluid flow problems.

Numerical study of nonlinear mixed convection inside stagnation-point flow over surface-reactive cylinder embedded in porous media

Nonlinear mixed convection of heat and mass in a stagnation-point flow of an impinging jet over a solid cylinder embedded in a porous medium is investigated by applying a similarity technique. The problem involves a heterogenous chemical reaction on the surface of the cylinder and nonlinear heat generation in the porous solid. The conducted analysis considers combined heat and mass transfer through inclusions of Soret and Dufour effects and predicts the velocity, temperature and concentration fields as well as the average Nusselt and Sherwood number. It is found that intensification of the nonlinear convection results in development of higher axial velocities over the cylinder and reduces the thickness of thermal and concentration boundary layers. Hence, consideration of nonlinear convection can lead to prediction of higher Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. Further, the investigation reveals that the porous system deviates from local thermal equilibrium at higher Reynolds numbers and mixed convection parameter.
