Influences of electrical MHD and Hall current on squeezing nanofluid flow inside rotating porous plates with viscous and joule dissipation effects

Abstract

Nanofluids have the ability to flow smoothly in micro-cavities in addition with scattering of the nanoparticles. Because of the good convection between nanoparticles and the base fluid, nanofluids can achieve a good thermal conductivity. The main advantages of adding nanosize particles with base fluid are to improve the ability of storing heat, effective surface area, heat transmission, collisions and interaction among the nanoparticles. The main aim of this research work is to examine the steady and incompressible nanofluid flow between parallel rotating plates. Viscose and joule dissipation effects are taken into account. To our knowledge, impact of electrical MHD and Hall effect with Cattaneo–Christov heat flux on the squeezing 3-D flow nanofluid between parallel rotating plates are not examined yet. Heat in the form of Cattaneo–Christov heat flux is applied. We used similarity transformations to transform the primary equations to a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). These ODEs are then solved through the standard procedure of homotopy analysis technique. The skin friction and Nusselt number are numerically tabulated under the influence of some focused parameters. The effects produced by different parameters on the velocity (components) and temperature profiles are graphically depicted and explained in a bit detail.
