Heat and mass transfer in non-coaxial rotation of radiative MHD Casson carbon nanofluid flow past a porous medium

Abstract

The heat and mass transfer of a radiative Casson nanofluid with single-wall and multi-wall carbon nanotubes in a non-coaxial rotating frame is analyzed in this article. The effects of thermal radiation, magnetic field and porosity are considered. Casson human blood is used to suspend both types of carbon nanotubes. The governed dimensional momentum, energy and concentration equations associated with initial and moving boundary conditions are converted into dimensionless expression by applying appropriate dimensionless variables. The exact solutions are determined by solving the dimensionless governing partial differential equations using the Laplace transform method. The obtained solutions are verified by comparing the present results with the published results. The validity of the solutions is assured since a precise agreement between the results is accomplished. The variation of the skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number for various values of the embedded parameters are presented in tables. The impacts of embedded parameters on the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are illustrated in graphs. The distribution of the velocity and temperature is enhanced by the nanoparticles volume fraction but a reverse effect is observed for concentration profile. The radiation parameter has amplified the velocity and temperature of the Casson nanofluid. The emergence of porosity effect has aided to the smoothness of fluid flow but the presence of magnetic field reports the opposite effect on the velocity.
