Influence of an inclined stretching cylinder over MHD mixed convective nanofluid flow due to chemical reaction and viscous dissipation

Abstract

AbstractThis paper analyzed the steady two‐dimensional magnetohydrodynamic mixed convective viscous nanofluid and heat transfer toward an inclined stretching cylinder with chemical reaction and uniform magnetic field. The governing partial differential equation in a cylindrical form is reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using appropriate similarity transformation and solved numerically by spectral quasilinearization methods (SQLMs). A new approach of this method is employed to derive numerical expressions for velocity, temperature, and concentration profile. The convergence and accuracy of our numerical scheme are observed. The SQLM is employed to find out the convergent series solution. There is an increase in the temperature profiles due to the increase in the thermophoresis parameter. The increase in effective Eckert number results in the increase of the temperature profile.
