Melting heat transmission of Maxwell nanofluid flow caused due to a stretchable cylindrical pipe through Finite Element Technique

Abstract

AbstractThe objective of current investigation is to examine Maxwell fluid flow generated by cylindrical stretching pipe. Thermophoresis and Brownian moment phenomena will also incorporate on the said fluid. Melting heat shifting phenomenon incorporated at the surface of the elongating cylinder. Mathematical formulation is supported by boundary layer assumption. Suitable similarity transformations diminishes model of nonlinear partial differential equations into a model of nonlinear ordinary differential equations that ultimately solved via numerical technique named Finite Element Technique. The properties of numerous effective variables are graphically displayed and examined. Further the physical quantities like velocity gradient, heat and mass fluxes are tabulated numerically and analyzed. The dimensionless temperature distribution rises for rising values of curvature parameter and Brownian motion parameter however an opposite behavior is observed for melting parameter and Prandtl number. Moreover, a reduction occurs in heat and mass fluxes for sufficiently high values of curvature parameter.
