Abstract

Multiphase flows of non-Newtonian fluid with heat transfer through an inclined channel are presented in this article. Eyring-Powell fluid is considered the main continuous phase. Two separate types of bi-phase suspensions are formulated with the help of gold and silver metallic particles under the effects of applied magnetic fields. Mathematical expressions for multiphase flow dynamics are developed employing Eyring-Powell fluid's stress tensor. Thermal transport is governed by Fourier's law of conduction. A semi-analytic solution is obtained for the nonlinear and coupled differential equations. The present results are compared with the Newtonian multiphase flows for the limiting case. The study reveals that gold particles offer less drag as compared to silver particles in the multiphase suspensions. Moreover, Eyring-Powell fluid is more suitable for viscous suspensions.
