Numerical Technique for a Darcy-Forchheimer Casson CuO-MgO/Methanol Hybrid Nanofluid Flow due to an Elongated Curved Surface with Chemical Reaction

Abstract

The insight of the present work is for analyzing the Darcy-Forchheimer model on energy and mass transfer fluid flow with the impact of CuO and MgO metallic nanoparticles with methanol as base fluid due to an elongated curved surface in uniform porous media numerically. For the two-dimensional physical model, the governing nonlinear coupled partial differential equations are derived with suitable boundary conditions and in turn, using appropriate similarity transformation transferred to nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations. Runge-Kutta Felhberg (RKF) computational results are carried out using Maple software to understand the characteristics variations of momentum fluid flow, heat and mass transfer on various control non-dimensional parameters of the model viz local Reynolds number, Schmidt number, porosity and curvature parameters. The findings are shown numerically and graphically to demonstrate the performance of flow-related physical parameters on energy, velocity, and concentration patterns. Furthermore, the Nusselt number, skin friction coefficient and Sherwood number for the currently stated system are numerically computed. The Prandtl number denotes the deterioration of the temperature profile's performance. It is believed that increasing the Casson parameter value lowers the velocity field. Moreover, the concentration field declines as the Schmidt number grows. The findings are compared to previous studies which turn out to be in good accord.
