Abstract

Due to potential implications, boundary layer analysis of chemically reacting Carreau nanofluid has been carried out to examine flow properties of ferromagnetic fluid over a stretched sheet in the presence of magnetic dipole, for shear thinning and shear thickening fluids. Furthermore, the transportation of heat under thermal radiation, heat generation, the Brownian, and thermophoresis aspects has been evaluated. The dimensionless form of highly nonlinear coupled partial differential equations is obtained using suitable similarity transformations and then solved numerically by well-known bvp 4 c technique via MATLAB based on the shooting method. The outcomes of physical quantities are presented through graphs and numerical benchmarks. Moreover, outcomes for skin fraction, Sherwood and Nusselt numbers for velocity, concentration, and temperature are also estimated in this study. The present study reveals that the concentration and thermal boundary layer thicknesses were higher for shear thinning n < 1 fluid when compared with shear thickening n > 1 fluids, but reverse effects are to be observed for momentum boundary layer thickness.

Highlights

  • Fast progresses in multidisciplinary approach in industrial, technological, and engineering developments claim the efficient and well-organized energy utilization and its implementations in a vast proportion

  • A liquid strongly magnetized by magnetic field is named as ferrofluid. ey are normally referred as magnetic fluids

  • In the presence of magnetic field, when magnetic nanoparticles are added to base fluid, they form a nanofluid subclass, as they frequently respond to applied magnetic field. ese nanosized particles have an average size of 10 nm

Summary

Introduction

Fast progresses in multidisciplinary approach in industrial, technological, and engineering developments claim the efficient and well-organized energy utilization and its implementations in a vast proportion. Basha et al [24] mainly addressed the flow of ferromagnetic Carreau nanofluid at a stagnation, wedge, and porous plate, with numerical techniques with effects of magnetic dipole for shear thinning/thickening (n < 1 and n > 1) cases. Due to potential implications and applications, boundary layer analysis of chemically reacting Carreau nanofluid to examine flow properties of ferromagnetic fluid over a stretched sheet in the presence of magnetic dipole, heat generation, the Brownian, thermophoresis motion, viscous, and ohmic dissipation for shear thinning and shear thickening fluids has been carried out. Ese reforms can be acknowledged and applied as projecting forthcoming of viable energy strategies for the progression
