Abstract

The Hall effect on MHD Couette flow and heat transfer between two parallel plates in a rotating channel is investigated. A uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the plates and the flow is induced by the effects of Coriolis force, moving upper plate and the constant pressure gradients. Cu-water, Al2O3-water and TiO2-water nanofluids are compared for heat transfer performance. The Galerkin approximation and method of lines are employed to tackle the governing non-linear PDEs. The results show that Hall current significantly affects the flow system. The skin friction and Nusselt number profiles are presented graphically and discussed quantitatively.
