Abstract

The assessment of melting heat transfer and non-uniform heat source on magnetic Cu–H2O nanofluid flow through a porous cylinder was studied. The transformed differential equations describing the motion of Cu–H2O fluid together with pertinent boundary conditions were handled numerically with the assistance of Keller box method. The ranges of volume fraction of copper particles were taken as 0–25%. The impacts of various governing parameters on the physical measures such as Nusselt number, surface drag force, temperature and velocity were analyzed by representing through graphs and tables. It was noted that the flow was influenced accordingly with the governing parameters. The outcomes showed that the rate of heat exchange improved with elevated Reynolds number, space and temperature-dependent internal heat source and melting parameters. The comparison of our data in relation to those of previous works has been shown.

Highlights

  • The nanofluids are liquid suspensions of nano-sized solid particles into the base liquids

  • The coefficient of surface drag force depreciated with enhancing melting parameter values

  • The assessment of non-uniform heat source and melting heat transfer on magnetized Cu–H2O nanofluid via a stretching cylinder saturated in porous medium has been investigated
