Abstract

Listen

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the multislip effects on the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) mixed convection unsteady flow of micropolar nano-fluids over a stretching/shrinking sheet along with radiation in the presence of a heat source. The consequences of multislip and buoyancy conditions have been integrated. By using the suitable similarity variables are used to solve the governing non-linear partial differential equations into a system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations. The transformed equations are solved numerically by using Runge–Kutta fourth-order method with shooting technique. The impacts of the several parameters on the velocity, temperature, micro-rotation, and concentration profiles as well as on the skin friction coefficient, Sherwood number, and Nusselt number are discussed with the help of graphs and tables.

Highlights

Nanofluids played an important role in recent years due to their vast variety and complex applications, such as in the medical applications, the petroleum industry, and food processing.Many researchers attracted by convective heat transfer using suspensions of nano-sized particles the temperature of the base fluid increases by nano-particles which is the main source in the heat transfer performance [1,2]
Choi and Eastman [3] firstly gave the concept of nano-fluid. They described that the thermal conductivity would increase after adding a small number of nanoparticles

Introduction

Nanofluids played an important role in recent years due to their vast variety and complex applications, such as in the medical applications, the petroleum industry, and food processing.Many researchers attracted by convective heat transfer using suspensions of nano-sized particles the temperature of the base fluid increases by nano-particles which is the main source in the heat transfer performance [1,2]. Nanofluids played an important role in recent years due to their vast variety and complex applications, such as in the medical applications, the petroleum industry, and food processing. This is the most appropriate method for increasing the heat transfer coefficient. Choi and Eastman [3] firstly gave the concept of nano-fluid. They described that the thermal conductivity would increase after adding a small number of nanoparticles. Unsteady magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) flow of Casson nanofluid over a moving vertical semi-infinite plate was numerically studied by Babu [4]. Ali et al [5]
