Abstract

The new computational approach has been incorporated for modeling the nanofluid flow through a cavity involving a wavy inner wall which experiences uniform flux. The fluid was created by loading alumina powders with various shapes within the water. The stream function formulation was applied after employing Darcy law and final equations have been generated. The container is under the impact of Lorentz force in addition to buoyancy forces. With loading additives, Nu enhances about 17.07% and 41.57% depending on the amount of Ha. The greater value of Ha makes the effect of adding nanoparticles become more sensible. With increasing the value of shape factor, Nu increases about 11.76%. As Ha grows, the rate of cooling decreases about 41.31%. With augment of Ra, Nu enhances about 50.41% in absence of Ha.
