Analysis about enhancement in thermal characteristics of viscous fluid flow with induction of ferrite particles by using Cattaneo Christov theory

Abstract

The elevated convective heat transfer process plays vital role in performance of electronic and engineering equipment’s. Over the years various attempts have been executed in this regards, including the insertion of nano elements in poorly conducting liquids. Initially, improvement in thermophysical characteristics of ordinary fluids was observed but with advancement in nanoparticles structuring new classifications in nano elements are found. Among these discoveries experimentations have explored highly fascinating and intrinsically featured class of nanomaterials renowned as ferromagnetic nano constituents. So, the motivation regarding this investigation is execution about change in thermal features of base liquid with insertion of different ferrite particles. Here, water is considered as based liquid and Nickel Zinc Ferrite (NiZnFe2O4) and magnetite ferrite (Fe2O4) as solid particles are inserted. Impact of magnetic dipole is also envisioned to produce optimized effectiveness of ferrite particles. Energy transmission in flow domain is depicted by incorporation of Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model. Mathematical formulation containing thermo mechanical features of ferrite particles are attained in complexly structured partial differential system and afterwards similarity transformations are implemented for transmutation into ODES. Constructed problem is simulated by implementing numerical approaches. Influence of involved variables on associated distributions are displayed through graphs and tables. It is demonstrated that momentum as well as heat transfer of base fluid augments with inclusion of Nickel Zinc ferrite as compared magnetite ferrite. It is inferred that velocity shows declining behavior against Curie temperature whereas reverse behavior is seen for temperature profile. It is divulged that viscous dissipation imparts diminishing impact on momentum whereas contrary behavior is depicted in case of temperature profile. In addition, increment in wall drag magnitude and thermal flux is manipulated by incorporation of (NiZnFe2O4) rather than (Fe2O4).
