Analytical Study Of Transient Mixed Convective Radiative Jeffrey Fluid Flow With Diffusion–Thermo And Chemical Reaction, V. Sathiya, R. Vijayaragavan, B. Rushi Kumar Jan 2026

Analytical Study Of Transient Mixed Convective Radiative Jeffrey Fluid Flow With Diffusion–Thermo And Chemical Reaction, V. Sathiya, R. Vijayaragavan, B. Rushi Kumar

Mansoura Engineering Journal

This research examines the behavior of unsteady mixed convective radiative Jeffrey fluid flow over a permeable moving plate with a diffusion thermo effect. The study incorporates multiple factors, including aligned magnetic fields, heat generation, radiation, and chemical reactions. The behavior of Jeffrey fluid under these combined conditions is particularly relevant to the design of efficient heat exchangers, MHD generators, and cooling systems for electronic components. A regular perturbation technique was employed to solve the governing equations, yielding distributions for velocity, temperature, and species concentration. These solutions enabled the derivation of expressions for skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number. Through …

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The entropy generation analysis for the nanofluid flowing over a stretching/shrinking curved region is performed in the existence of the cross-diffusion effect. The surface is also subjected to second-order velocity slip under the effect of mixed convection. The Joule heating that contributes significantly to the heat transfer properties of nanofluid is incorporated along with the heat source/sink. Furthermore, the flow is assumed to be governed by an exterior magnetic field that aids in gaining control over the flow speed. With these frameworks, the mathematical model that describes the flow with such characteristics and assumptions is framed using partial differential equations …


Magnetic Control Of Transport Of Particles And Droplets In Low Reynolds Number Shear Flows, Jie Zhang Jan 2020

Magnetic Control Of Transport Of Particles And Droplets In Low Reynolds Number Shear Flows, Jie Zhang

Doctoral Dissertations

“Magnetic particles and droplets have been used in a wide range applications including biomedicine, biological analysis and chemical reaction. The manipulation of magnetic microparticles or microdroplets in microscale fluid environments is one of the most critical processes in the systems and platforms based on microfluidic technology. The conventional methods are based on magnetic forces to manipulate magnetic particles or droplets in a viscous fluid.

In contrast to conventional magnetic separation method, several recent experimental and theoretical studies have demonstrated a different way to manipulate magnetic non-spherical particles by using a uniform magnetic field in the microchannel. However, the fundamental mechanism …


Analysis Of Heat And Mass Transfer Of An Inclined Magnetic Field Pressure-Driven Flow Past A Permeable Plate, M. S. Dada, S. O. Salawu Jun 2017

Analysis Of Heat And Mass Transfer Of An Inclined Magnetic Field Pressure-Driven Flow Past A Permeable Plate, M. S. Dada, S. O. Salawu

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The study considers heat and mass transfer of magnetohydrodynamics pressure-driven flow passed a stretching permeable surface in the presence of inclined uniform magnetic field. The equations governing the model are transformed by Lie’s group and solved using weighted residual method. The results obtained are compared with that of fourth order Runge-Kutta method that show the effects of Skin friction, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers on the flow. Finally, the influence of some important parameters on the flow are presented graphically and discussed.

Thermal Convection In A Couple-Stress Fluid In The Presence Of Horizontal Magnetic Field With Hall Currents, Jaimala And Vikrant, Vivek Kumar Jun 2013

Thermal Convection In A Couple-Stress Fluid In The Presence Of Horizontal Magnetic Field With Hall Currents, Jaimala And Vikrant, Vivek Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The thermal stability of a couple-stress fluid is considered to include the effects of uniform horizontal magnetic field and Hall currents. The analysis is carried out within the framework of linear stability theory and normal made technique. For the case of stationary convection, magnetic field has stabilizing effect whereas Hall currents are found to have destabilizing effect on the system. The couple stress, however, has dual character in contrast to its stabilizing effect in the absence of Hall currents. Oscillatory modes are not allowed in the system. Graphs in each case have been plotted by giving numerical values to the …


Chemical Reaction And Hall Effects On Mhd Convective Flow Along An Infinite Vertical Porous Plate With Variable Suction And Heat Absorption, S. Masthanrao, K. S. Balamurugan, S. V. K. Varma, V. C. C. Raju Jun 2013

Chemical Reaction And Hall Effects On Mhd Convective Flow Along An Infinite Vertical Porous Plate With Variable Suction And Heat Absorption, S. Masthanrao, K. S. Balamurugan, S. V. K. Varma, V. C. C. Raju

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper an attempt is made to study the chemical reaction and combined buoyancy effects of thermal and mass diffusion on MHD convective flow along an infinite vertical porous plate in the presence of Hall current with variable suction and heat generation. A uniform magnetic field is applied in a direction normal to the porous plate. The equations governing the fluid flow are solved using the perturbation technique and the expressions for the velocity, the temperature and the concentration distributions have been obtained. Dimensionless velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are displayed graphically for different values of the parameters entering …


Stability Of Stratified Couple-Stress Dusty Fluid In The Presence Of Magnetic Field Through Porous Medium, Vivek Kumar Dec 2011

Stability Of Stratified Couple-Stress Dusty Fluid In The Presence Of Magnetic Field Through Porous Medium, Vivek Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The combined effect of magnetic field and dust particles on the stability of a stratified couplestress fluid through a porous medium is considered. For stable stratification, the system is found to be stable for disturbances of all wave numbers. The magnetic field succeeds in stabilizing the potentially unstable stratifications for a certain wave-number range which were unstable in the absence of the magnetic field. Discussions of oscillatory and non-oscillatory modes are also made.


Steady Incompressible Magnetohydrodynamic Flow Near A Point Of Reattachment, J. M. Dorrepaal, S. Moosavizadeh Jan 1998

Steady Incompressible Magnetohydrodynamic Flow Near A Point Of Reattachment, J. M. Dorrepaal, S. Moosavizadeh

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

The oblique stagnation-point flow of an electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a magnetic field is a highly nonlinear problem whose solution is of interest even in the simplest of geometries. The problem models the flow of a viscous conducting fluid near a point where a separation vortex reattaches itself to a rigid boundary. A similarity solution exists which reduces the problem to a coupled system of four ordinary differential equations which can be integrated numerically. The problem has two independent parameters, the conductivity of the fluid and the strength of the magnetic field. Solutions are tabulated for a …
