Abstract

The present article deals with the influence of a magnetic field on unsteady MHD water-based nanofluid flow across an infinite flat plate with a ramped temperature gradient and radiative heat transfer in a porous material is investigated. Two forms of water-based nanofluids comprising silver, and titanium dioxide are considered. The finite element technique is used to solve the governing partial differential equations, and the approximate results are provided. The temperature, velocities, rate of heat transfer, and shear stresses of nano-fluids at the plate are depicted graphically for a range of relevant parameter values. It has been observed that the velocity and temperature profiles upsurge with rising values of the radiation factor, whilst the velocity diminishes for larger values of the Magnetic parameter. The comparison research that was performed reveals a remarkable degree of concordance with the earlier investigation.
