Statistical analysis of bioconvective EMHD tangent hyperbolic nanofluid with thermal radiation and heat source/sink

AbstractThis study examines the influence of thermal radiation and heat source/sink of the tangent hyperbolic fluid on EMHD boundary layer flow through stretching sheets. Motile gyrotactic microorganism is considered in the fluid flow and the flow is analyzed with the impact of thermal radiation, heat source/sink, and electromagnetohydrodynamic. By utilizing the proper similarity transformations, partial differential systems are converted to ordinary differential systems. The Runge–Kutta fifth‐order method with shooting technique is used in the converted systems to solve numerically. Velocity, temperature, concentration, and microorganism density profile are discussed and represented graphically. The numerical values of drag force rate, heat transfer rate, mass transfer rate, and density of motile microorganisms are specified, compared, and results enhancement in heat transfer rate as 64.31% by radiation parameter, mass transfer rate as 97.28% by heat source/sink parameter and microorganism density rate as 28.33% by Peclet number, respectively. The buoyancy parameter diminishes the drag force by 30.39%. The multiple and quadratic regression coefficient for adjusted , multiple , residual standard error, F‐statistic, and p‐value is estimated for skin friction, Nusselt number, Sherwood number, and density of microorganism. It has significant applications which are widely used to transport biological material in bio‐microfluidics, enhance heat dissipation in high‐performance electronics, thermal management systems on spacecraft and satellites, and solar energy systems.

Dual characteristics of mixed convection flow of three-particle aqueous nanofluid upon a shrinking porous plate

Purpose This study aims to analyze the thermo-hydrodynamic characteristics for the mixed convection boundary layer flow of three-particle aqueous nanofluid on a shrinking porous plate with the influences of thermal radiation and magnetic field. Design/methodology/approach The basic equations have been normalized with the help of similarity transformations. The obtained equations have been solved numerically using the shooting method in conjunction with the sixth-order Runge–Kutta technique. Numerical results for the velocity and temperature are illustrated with varying relevant parameters. Findings The results reveal that the local drag coefficient increases with higher values of the magnetic field parameter, nanoparticle volume fraction and suction parameter. On the other hand, boosting the radiation parameter and nanoparticle concentration notably enhances heat transfer. Furthermore, it is noted that the suction parameter and magnetic field parameter both lead to an increase in velocity and promote the occurrence of dual solutions within the problem conditions. Research limitations/implications The limitations are that the model is appropriate for thermal equilibrium of base fluid and nanoparticles, and constant thermo-physical properties. Originality/value To the best of the authors' knowledge, no study has taken an attempt to predict the flow and heat transfer characteristics of unsteady mixed convection ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a shrinking sheet, particularly under the influence of magnetic field and radiation. The findings obtained here may hold particular significance for those interested in the underlying theoretical and practical implications.

An inclined magnetic field and slip effect on heat and mass transfer analysis in the peristaltic flow of immiscible fluid through an asymmetric porous channel

In this work, authors have studied peristaltic flow of immiscible type of couple stress and Newtonian fluid via an asymmetric horizontal channel filled with porous material by taking slippage into account at the channel wall which was ignored in previous published literature under the influence of thermal radiation and magnetic field. The study of peristaltic flow of considered immiscible fluids will play an important role in maximizing system efficiency, reducing energy losses, and improving performance of various fluid transport. In the present problem, the linearized form of governing equations has been solved by direct method with the use of Mathematica 14 software to obtained the closed form solutions of various flow variables. In this work, the impacts of various influencing factors on the model's flow, thermal, and concentration properties have been analyzed graphically. The work presented here leads to the significant result that large Schmidt number values in a porous filled duct reduces the mass diffusivity. Another key finding of this work is that the formation of entropy is reduced when low permeability porous material is used. Our research concludes that entropy creation in the asymmetric porous channel is decreased when the slip length increases on the channel's static borders.

Simulation of thermal radiation effects on the thermal properties of parietodynamic walls using an innovative model

The parietodynamic wall, a type of dynamic insulation, has been recognized as an effective technology to reduce energy loss in buildings by recovering heat energy through forced convection. However, current research on the thermal performance of parietodynamic walls has overlooked the influence of thermal radiation, a crucial factor in energy transfer within the air layers of these walls. To bridge this gap, an innovative simulation model was developed and experimentally validated. Employing simulation methods, we investigated the impact of thermal radiation on the thermal behavior of parietodynamic walls under various influencing factors. Our findings reveal that thermal radiation markedly increases heat loss. Specifically, at an emissivity of 1, thermal radiation contributes up to 80.7% to the heat transfer coefficient (HTC) of the parietodynamic wall. Moreover, for a parietodynamic wall without insulation, the HTC of this wall will increase by more than 268% when thermal radiation is taken into account, compared to when it is not considered. These revelations deepen our comprehension of the role of thermal radiation in parietodynamic walls and offer valuable guidance for the development of more energy-efficient buildings.

Exploration of the dynamics of heated non-Newtonian Casson fluid within an annular region of eccentric cylinders subject to peristaltic motion

The flow of non-Newtonian fluids is widely observed in industry and biology, for example, enhanced oil recovery, chemical processes such as in distillation towers and fixed-bed reactors and in the applications of pumping fluids such as synthetic lubricants, colloidal fluids, liquid crystals, and biofluids (e.g., animal and human blood). Therefore, the present study delineates the heat transfer analysis of a Casson fluid within the annular region of eccentric cylinders subjected to peristaltic motion, considering the influence of thermal radiation. The outer cylinder remains rigid and moves at a constant speed, while the inner cylinder, featuring a sinusoidal wave along its wall, exhibits flexibility. The governing two-dimensional equations for the movement of the Casson fluid are reformulated under the assumption of the lubrication hypothesis. The perturbation scheme is used to find approximate results for velocity, temperature, and pressure gradient. A graphical representation is utilized to study the fluctuation of various flow fields with different imperative parameters. The results reveal that the liquid velocity declines as the Casson parameter increases, while the temperature decreases due to the amplified effect of thermal radiation. This study has applications in endoscopy, which is important for diagnosing problems in internal organs. Additionally, the variation of the pressure gradient helps maintain the flow rate, which is essential during the insertion of a catheter into an artery.

Numerical investigation of magnetized bioconvection and heat transfer in a cross-ternary hybrid nanofluid over a stretching cylinder

PurposeIn this study, we investigate the effects of an extended ternary hybrid Tiwari and Das nanofluid model on ethylene glycol flow, with a focus on heat transfer. Using the Cross non-Newtonian fluid model, we explore the heat transfer characteristics of this unique fluid in various applications such as pharmaceutical solvents, vaccine preservatives, and medical imaging techniques.Design/methodology/approachOur investigation reveals that the flow of this ternary hybrid nanofluid follows a laminar Cross model flow pattern, influenced by heat radiation and occurring around a stretched cylinder in a porous medium. We apply a non-similarity transformation to the nonlinear partial differential equations, converting them into non-dimensional PDEs. These equations are subsequently solved as ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using MATLAB’s bvp4c tools. In addition, the magnetic number in this study spans from 0 to 5, volume fraction of nanoparticles varies from 5% to 10%, and Prandtl number for EG as 204. This approach allows us to examine the impact of temperature on heat transfer and distribution within the fluid.FindingsGraphical depictions illustrate the effects of parameters such as the Weissenberg number, porous parameter, Schmidt number, thermal conductivity parameter, Soret number, magnetic parameter, Eckert number, Lewis number, and Peclet number on velocity, temperature, concentration, and microorganism profiles. Our results highlight the significant influence of thermal radiation and ohmic heating on heat transmission, particularly in relation to magnetic and Darcy parameters. A higher Lewis number corresponds to faster heat diffusion compared to mass diffusion, while increases in the Soret number are associated with higher concentration profiles. Additionally, rapid temperature dissipation inhibits microbial development, reducing the microbial profile.Originality/valueThe numerical analysis of skin friction coefficients and Nusselt numbers in tabular form further validates our approach. Overall, our findings demonstrate the effectiveness of our numerical technique in providing a comprehensive understanding of flow and heat transfer processes in ternary hybrid nanofluids, offering valuable insights for various practical applications.

Influence of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, and joule heating on entropy generation and flow of a Maxwell hybrid nanofluid over an exponentially stretching sheet with couple stress effects

Using a numerical technique, this study explores the flow and thermal aspects of a Maxwell hybrid nanofluid across an exponentially stretched sheet. The analysis incorporates the effects of thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and chemical reaction. We use the in-built MATLAB function bvp4c to successfully solve the governing equations after we convert them to ordinary differential equations. The key novelty of this work lies in employing the Maxwell hybrid nanofluid, a more complex fluid than traditional nanofluids or regular Maxwell fluids and conducting a multifaceted analysis that considers factors like couple stress, chemical reaction, and entropy generation optimization alongside flow and heat transfer. The findings demonstrate that the Maxwell parameter and the magnetic field parameter both reduce fluid velocity due to opposing forces and enhanced elasticity, respectively. The temperature profile exhibits a rise with increasing thermal radiation, volume fraction of nanoparticles, and Eckert number due to enhanced radiative absorption, improved heat transfer, and internal heat generation respectively. As the Brinkman number and volume percentage of copper nanoparticles increase, the entropy generation becomes more intense and the Bejan number decreases as a result of enhanced viscous dissipation and friction. Between the values of 0.1 and 0.7 for Maxwell parameter, the friction factor exhibits a decrement of 0.1077. The Nusselt number, signifying heat transfer efficiency, reduces with the Eckert number but increases with the radiation parameter and volume fraction of nanoparticles. Between the values of 0.1 and 0.7 for Eckert number, the friction factor exhibits a decrement of 0.1077. Lastly, a steeper concentration gradient causes the Sherwood number, which is an indication of the mass transmission rate, to rise with the Schmidt number. it is detected that the rate of heat transfer increases at a rate of 0.0721 when chemical reaction values lie between 0 and 1.8.

The influence of thermal radiation during microwave-assisted freeze-drying of pharmaceutical unit doses

New drying technologies for biologicals have recently been developed to accelerate the time-consuming batch freeze-drying (BFD) process. Among others, microwave-assisted freeze-drying (MFD) has been suggested as a faster and more effective drying technology. In this study, MFD cycles with the microwave radiation switched on and off were performed to assess the contribution of the microwave radiation to drying acceleration. It was found that thermal radiation emitted by the drying chamber walls was predominantly accelerating the drying of monodose placebos rather than microwave radiation. The combination of ultra-low chamber pressure, high thermal heat transfer and a short primary-to-secondary phase transition reduces drying times by more than 80 % compared to conventional BFD. In a second step, a design of experiment approach was used to assess the effect of thermal radiation versus microwave radiation and their combination, together with dosage properties such as fill volume and excipient concentration upon drying rate. The outcome showed the importance of high fill volume and high excipient concentration for an effective microwave contribution to the drying rate. Nevertheless, the drying acceleration for small pharmaceutical dosages with restricted solutes was mainly driven by thermal radiation rather than 2.45 GHz microwave radiation. The inability of ice to convert microwave energy into heat hampers the potential use of microwave freeze-drying for single-dose vaccines.

Influence of thermal radiation and magnetic field on convective transfer within an inclined square enclosure filled with Cu-water nanofluid

The present work investigates the effects of thermal radiation and magnetic field on the laminar convective transfer process on copper-based nanofluid within an inclined square enclosure. The studied configuration is a rigid-walled cavity subjected to a horizontal temperature gradient where the left wall is maintained at a hot temperature Th and subjected to a magnetic field B0. In contrast, the right wall is kept at a cold temperature Tc. The horizontal walls are adiabatic. The dimensionless governing equations are solved using the finite difference method and the UPWIND scheme to solve the convective terms. Formulated using the stream function, vorticity, and temperature. Effects on mean Nusselt numbers are investigated at different Rayleigh numbers 104,105,106, Hartmann numbers HA=0to100, tilt angles γ=0,π/6,π/4andπ/3, nanofluid volume fractions 0%≤φ≤6% and different radiation parameters ( Rd=0,1,2,3 ). The findings show that the HTR increased 3.6 times by augmenting the Ra from 104 to 106. Also, increasing the Ha number from 0 to 100 causes an 83.16% reduction in the HTR. Considering the radiation mode of heat transfer causes an increase in HTR. The average Nusselt values increase by 59.72% for the concentration of 6% while increasing the radiation parameter from 0 to 3. On the other hand, an increase in volume fraction leads to a deterioration in mean Nusselt numbers (Numean).

This study explores the influence of thermal radiation and heat source on magnetized flow micropolar nanofluid through a Stretchable Sheet in the presence of mobile microbes. The presence of microorganisms adds a biological dimension to the problem, affecting fluid dynamics and heat transfer, which are central to this investigation. To motivate the problem, the flow is induced by a Darcy porous exponentially stretching sheet with generalized boundary conditions. A regression analysis is conducted to analyze the interplay of various parameters on the flow and heat transfer characteristics. Additionally, similarity transformations are implemented to transform the set of partial differential equations (PDEs) into a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The resulting equations are solved numerically using the shooting approach via the bvp4c platform in Matlab. The regression model quantifies the impact of each parameter and their interactions on the flow field, temperature distribution, and Darcy effects. Furthermore, the impact of involved parameters on flow, energy, volumetric concentration, density of microbes, and micro-rotations distribution are analyzed and discussed through graphs, literature, and tables. The findings of this research are crucial for various engineering, industrial, and pharmaceutical applications, including biofilm formation, geothermal energy extraction, and wastewater treatment processes.

The study uses the Rosseland approximation to describe the radiative heat flux and employs Crank Nicolson's implicit finite difference method utilizing the MATLAB programming tool for solving the non-dimensional system of equations. The results demonstrate that an increase in the thermal radiation parameter leads to a decrease in both the velocity and temperature of the fluid. The main findings of the study highlight the impact of thermal radiation on natural convection and heat transfer processes. This research is significant as it contributes to the understanding of convective heat transfer phenomena and provides valuable insights for applications in science and technology.

Simulation study on the oxidation performance of low-concentration methane preheating direct current catalytic oxidation plant considering thermal radiation

In this study, the process of catalytic oxidation of methane considering radiative heat transfer was simulated using FLUENT computational software to study the effect of thermal radiation on the oxidation performance of the simulated device, and to investigate the extent to which radiative heat transfer affects the oxidation performance of the device under different operating conditions. The results show that the extent to which thermal radiation affects the oxidative performance of the equipment increases with increasing inlet temperature. When the intake temperature reaches 900K, its proportion is close to 45 %. At the same time, as the inlet gas temperature increases, the maximum reaction temperature of the oxidation unit is 1154 K, and the methane conversion rate reaches up to 89 %. The main factor affecting the oxidation performance of the unit at this time is radiation heat transfer. The extent to which thermal radiation affects the oxidative performance of the device diminishes with increasing inlet velocity. When the wind speed reaches 2 m/s, the proportion of radiative heat transfer is only 10 %, the maximum reaction temperature of the plant falls to 993 K, and the methane conversion rate drops to 68 %. At this time, the main factor affecting the oxidation performance of the plant is convective heat transfer. The influence of thermal radiation on oxidation performance gradually diminishes with an increase in intake velocity, and the proportion of radiative heat transfer decreases continuously. At methane concentrations above 1 %, the proportion of radiative heat transfer is less than 25 per cent, the maximum reaction temperature of the unit increases to 1087 K, and the methane conversion rises to 88 %. At this point, the main factor affecting the oxidation performance of the plant is convective heat transfer.

Natural convection heat transfer in an eccentric annulus filled with hybrid nanofluid under the influence of thermal radiation and heat generation/absorption

This investigation aims to scrutinize the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a hybrid nanofluid composed of Ag-MgO within an eccentric annular space, where the inner circular wall is held at a constant elevated temperature and the outer circular wall is uniformly cooled. Natural convection in such eccentric annular enclosures, with thermal radiation and the effects of heat generation/absorption taken into consideration, plays a vital role in various engineering applications, including solar collectors, nuclear reactors, thermal storage systems, and heat exchangers. The resolution of the fundamental governing equations was executed employing the Gauss-Seidel approach, with the inclusion of a sub-relaxation process, all within the framework of the finite volume method. The impact of the Rayleigh number, radiation number, volume fraction as well as heat generation/absorption coefficient on thermal transfer, flow, and temperature distributions were investigated. It was observed that for low Rayleigh numbers, radiation influences enhance flow stability and improve the conductive heat transfer mode. Conversely, at high Rayleigh numbers, radiation intensifies convective heat exchange. The growth of the Rayleigh number diminishes the impact of heat generation and reinforces the radiation heat transfer process, while heat absorption exhibits the opposite effect. From Nr = 1 onwards, the average Nusselt number values are no longer influenced by an increase in nanoparticle volumetric fraction, and they are solely linked to the radiation number.

Transient flow and heat transfer characteristics of single-phase nanofluid past a stretching sheet under the influence of thermal radiation and heat source

This work aims to investigate the unsteady hydromagnetic free convective flow of a viscous, electrically incompressible fluid influenced by an inclined magnetic field, radiation, and heat source. Specifically, it explores the behavior of water-based nanofluids under these conditions. The Newton-Raphson shooting technique combines the 4th-order Runge-Kutta approach to obtain dimensionless and accurate solutions to the governing equations. The study assesses flow characteristics and heat transfer properties over various parameter values. The outcomes are visualized through graphical representations of velocity, temperature, skin friction coefficient, and the local Nusselt number. The present study examines the impact of copper (Cu), silver (Ag), alumina (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles in water as the base fluid on the percentage increase in skin friction and Nusselt number under various physical conditions. Suction increases skin friction by 10–15 % and the Nusselt number by a similar margin, whereas injection can reduce these metrics. Radiation enhances heat transfer, resulting in a 5–10 % increase in skin friction and a 10–15 % rise in the Nusselt number, with nanoparticles like Ag showing the most substantial effects due to their superior thermal properties.

Effect of slip velocity on Newtonian fluid flow induced by a stretching surface within a porous medium

This article aims to examine an unsteady 2-D laminar flow of magnetohydrodynamic fluid caused by an elastic surface immersed in a permeable medium under the influence of thermal radiation and extended heat flux. Thermal conductivity and viscosity both are supposed to vary with temperature. This flow model also includes velocity slip, heat source, and joule heating. The governing equations of the fluid, including momentum and energy equations, of the proposed problem are transfigured into a system of interconnected non-linear ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations. The resultant equations are solved efficiently by employing the shooting technique in combination with the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. Numerical values and the effect of numerous governing factors on the flow field, temperature distribution, local skin friction coefficient, and Nusselt number are showcased via graphs and tables. The investigation reveals that velocity slip, heat source, and porosity parameters enhance the temperature field while diminishing the velocity field. Furthermore, the velocity slip parameter notably reduces both the coefficient of skin friction and the Nusselt number.

In order to investigate the influence of thermal radiation to the global heat flux hot molten salt with temperatures between 160 °C and 250 °C is used as working fluid. We report on the construction of the convection cell, the application of the PIV measurement technique and show first results of the velocity fields at two different Rayleigh numbers Ra = 1.7 x 10^7 and Ra = 1.3 x 10^8 .

Mathematical analysis of heat and mass transfer efficiency of bioconvective Casson nanofluid flow through conical gap among the rotating surfaces under the influences of thermal radiation and activation energy

In the current proceeding, the flow of incompressible non-Newtonian nanofluid called Casson nanofluid is considered. A conical gap occurred among the rotating disc and the cone filled with the fluid flow. Heat and mass transport through this nanofluid is done by the convection mode of heat transfer. The impacts of microorganisms, chemical processes, thermal radiation, minimal amount of energy, and magnetic field are also considered in the mathematical model of flow problem. The Casson nano-fluid governing equations are interpreted in cylindrical coordinates. By implementing proper similarity transformations, the modeling PDEs of energy, momentum, concentration, and microorganism density are transformed into non-linear ODEs. A set of non-linear ODEs that deals with the distributions of temperature, velocity, concentration, and motile microorganisms produced by this technique. MATLAB in-built ‘bvp4c‘ technique is utilized to solve these equations. Findings are displayed graphically and elaborated theoretically. The primary goal of this work is to examine the effects during the rotation of the disc and cone as well as the impacts of other variables on the rotation. The nano-fluid temperature and radial velocity are found to be negatively impacted by the rotation parameter whereas azimuthal velocity is positively impacted. The parametric values are taken as 0.1<Nb<0.7, 0.1<λ<0.4, 1.0<Pr<2.50.1<M<0.4, 1.0<Rb<4.0, 0.1<Nr<0.4, 0.1<Sc<3.0, 0.1<Nt<0.4 for the purpose of generating modified results. From published and current results noted that rotation parameter effects impacted the transfer rate of the nanofluid.

Optimization and heat transfer analysis for MHD radiative natural convective flow of hybrid nanofluid within a partially heated cavity

The current study consists of optimization and heat transfer analysis for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) radiative-natural convective flow of hybrid nanofluid (mixture of silver and copper nanoparticles with ethylene glycol (base fluid)) saturated inside the partially heated isosceles triangular cavity. Additionally, the current analysis investigates the distraction of available energy during thermal mixing and flow friction through local entropy generation. The conservation laws of total mass, momentum, and energy balance equations have been utilized to govern the physical flow problem. After eradicating the pressure terms in the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) via the penalty technique, the Galerkin finite element method (FEM) with the Newton-Raphson technique has been utilized to solve it. The outcomes established that the concentration of silver nanoparticles, as compared to copper nanoparticles, gives better energy transport. An increase in the concentration of nano-particles from ( ϕ 1 = ϕ 2 = 0 ) to ( ϕ 1 = ϕ 2 = 0.1 ) increased the intensity of streamlines from ψ max = 1.5 to ψ max = 4 and energy transmit rate increases by 57.4 % . The influence of thermal radiation decreased the fluid flow friction or local entropy via fluid flow.

Thermal transport of radially magnetized peristalsis of non-Newtonian nanofluid through an asymmetric curved channel

Present examination explores the heat and mass transfer phenomena for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) peristaltic transport of diethylene glycol (DEG)-based Cross nanofluid through an asymmetric curved channel. The mass and thermal characteristics of nanofluid are established through the assessment of Buongiorno nano-liquid model, which allows to identify intriguing features of thermophoretic and Brownian diffusion coefficients. Further, velocity slip conditions are enforced on the peristaltic walls. The influences of thermal radiation, radius-dependent magnetic field and viscous dissipation are also taken into consideration. The governing equations are simplified by employing lubrication theory (“biological estimate of the creeping transportation phenomenon”), and resulting system is tackled numerically. Impacts of different flow parameters on the nanofluid’s velocity, nanomaterials concentration profile, heat and mass transfer, streamlines, temperature of nanofluid, and stresses at the wall are analyzed via graphs and tables. The findings of this investigation report that nanofluid’s temperature enhances against Hartmann and Brinkman numbers, whereas it declines for the thermal radiation parameter. The distribution of the concentration profile decreases for Brownian motion while it increases for the thermophoresis parameter. Further, a development in the stresses, thermal and mass transfer rates at the boundary is seen for better values of the Hartmann number. Additionally, higher values of the velocity slip parameter show increasing behavior for the velocity of nanofluid near the walls of the channel. The effects of MHD with magnesium aluminate nanoparticles suspended in DEG base fluid-based nanofluid through an asymmetric curved conduit have many uses in industry, organic compounds, biomedical engineering, and commercial productions, such as brake fluid, tobacco, polyester resins, certain dyes, printing ink, polyurethanes, glue, resins, antifreeze, nitrocellulose, oils, cigarettes, plasticizers, and so forth. DEG-based nanofluids are also used in human medications, including acetaminophen and sulfanilamide, which can result in incidents of human poisoning, some of which have been fatal, either intentionally or unintentionally.

This study examines the behavior of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) suspended in a water-based ionic solution, driven by the combined mechanisms of electroosmosis and peristalsis through ciliated media. The inclusion of nanoparticles in ionic fluid expands the range of potential applications and allows for the tailoring of properties to suit specific needs. This interaction between ionic fluids and nanomaterials results in advancements in various fields, including energy storage, electronics, biomedical engineering, and environmental remediation. The analysis investigates the influence of a transverse magnetic field, thermal radiation, and mixed convection acting on the channel walls. The novel physical outcomes include enhanced propulsion efficiency due to SWCNTs, understanding the influence of thermal radiation on fluid behavior and heat exchange, elucidation of the interactions between SWCNTs and the nanofluid, and recognizing implications for microfluidics and biomedical engineering. The Poisson–Boltzmann ionic distribution is linearized using the modified Debye–Hückel approximation. By employing real-world approximations, the governing equations are simplified using long-wavelength and low-Reynolds-number approximation. Conducting sensitivity analyses or exploring the impact of higher-order corrections on the model’s predictions in recent literature might alter the results significantly. This acknowledges the complexities of the modeling process and sets the groundwork for further enhancement and investigation. The resulting nonlinear system of equations is solved through regular perturbation techniques, and graphical representations showcase the variation in significant physical parameters. This study also discusses pumping and trapping phenomena in the context of relevant parameters.
