Abstract

In the present paper, an MHD three-dimensional non-Newtonian fluid flow over a porous stretching/shrinking sheet in the presence of mass transpiration and thermal radiation is examined. This problem mainly focusses on an analytical solution; graphene water is immersed in the flow of a fluid to enhance the thermal efficiency. The given non-linear PDEs are mapped into ODEs via suitable transformations, then the solution is obtained in terms of incomplete gamma function. The momentum equation is analyzed, and to derive the mass transpiration analytically, this mass transpiration is used in the heat transfer analysis and to find the analytical results with a Biot number. Physical significance parameters, including volume fraction, skin friction, mass transpiration, and thermal radiation, can be analyzed with the help of graphical representations. We indicate the unique solution at stretching sheet and multiple solution at shrinking sheet. The physical scenario can be understood with the help of different physical parameters, namely a Biot number, magnetic parameter, inverse Darcy number, Prandtl number, and thermal radiation; these physical parameters control the analytical results. Graphene nanoparticles are used to analyze the present study, and the value of the Prandtl number is fixed to 6.2. The graphical representations help to discuss the results of the present work. This problem is used in many industrial applications such as Polymer extrusion, paper production, metal cooling, glass blowing, etc. At the end of this work, we found that the velocity and temperature profile increases with the increasing values of the viscoelastic parameter and solid volume fraction; additionally, efficiency is increased for higher values of thermal radiation.

Highlights

  • Transport is one of the main motivations for conducting an experiment on stretching sheet problems, the main reason this problem is widely utilized in the engineering and industrial processes viz., extrusion of sheet, metal thinning, exchange of heat between, etc

  • Mahabaleshwar et al [5,6,7] conducted experiments with magneto hydrodynamics in the presence of different physical parameters such as mass transpiration, thermal radiation, and Dufour and Soret mechanisms. These investigations were carried out with porous sheet; these porous particles play a major role in stretching sheet problems as these porous materials help to enrich the rate of heat transfer from stretching/shrinking surfaces and have numerous industrial applications

  • Three-dimensional nanofluid flow due to a porous stretching/shrinking sheet with mass transpiration and radiation is examined in the current analysis

Introduction

Transport is one of the main motivations for conducting an experiment on stretching sheet problems, the main reason this problem is widely utilized in the engineering and industrial processes viz., extrusion of sheet, metal thinning, exchange of heat between, etc. Mahabaleshwar et al [5,6,7] conducted experiments with magneto hydrodynamics in the presence of different physical parameters such as mass transpiration, thermal radiation, and Dufour and Soret mechanisms. Later, these investigations were carried out with porous sheet; these porous particles play a major role in stretching sheet problems as these porous materials help to enrich the rate of heat transfer from stretching/shrinking surfaces and have numerous industrial applications. An MHD graphene water nanofluid flow through a porous medium with mass transpiration and thermal radiation is considered.
