Numerical simulation of heat transport mechanism in chemically influenced ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a wedge geometry

Ternary hybrid nanofluid flow over a wedge surface facilitates optimization, promotes industrial processes such as heat transfer, temperature regulation, material compatibility, energy efficiency and is very useful in equipment design. Due to this attention the current study focalizes the heat diffusion and mass transportation in ternary hybrid (TiO2-AL2O3-SiO2) nanofluid flow over a stretching/shrinking wedge geometry. Additionally, Ternary hybrid flow is examined under the impact of activation energy together with chemical reactions. The nanofluid flow process is structured using Modified Boungiorno Model together with framed set of partial differential equation (PDEs). The resulting systems is altered into non dimensional form of ordinary differential equation (ODEs) using transform functions and linearization is obtained through shooting technique. MATLAB bvp4c solver scheme is utilized for numerical findings of the problem. Influence of key parameters are analyzed on velocity, temperature, and concentration field. Fluid concentration intensifies via augmentation in activation rate whereas wedge stretching due to larger values of wedge angle, lessens velocity of fluid. Heat transportation escalate with higher values of fluid index, whereas negative trend is seen in case of higher value of Brownian parameter.

Nanofluid Flow Past a Static Wedge with Velocity Slip Condition

Nanofluids are known for their exceptional thermophysical properties, especially their thermal conductivity, which make them ideal for a number of heat transfer applications. In this study, the mixed convection nanofluid flow past a static wedge with the presence of velocity slip condition is investigated. The problem is governed by a system of partial differential equations which then transformed into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using an appropriate similarity transformation. The transformed governing equations are then solved numerically by using MATLAB bvp4c solver. Numerical solutions obtained are presented graphically in the form of velocity and temperature profiles for different values of nanoparticles volume fraction, wedge angle and velocity slip. It is found that the increasing values of the wedge angle parameter causes the velocity of the fluid to increase whereas the temperature profile of the nanofluid decreases, additionally it observed that velocity of the fluid increase when velocity slip is increased. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into optimizing heat transfer processes in various engineering applications by leveraging the enhanced thermal properties of nanofluids and considering factors such as wedge angle and velocity slip

This steel has the advantages of stable composition,low harmful elements,high steel purity. Surface roughness is important, surface roughness is defined as the irregularity of surface configuration in an object resulting from a finishing process. This study aims to determine the influence of process variables on the surface roughness rate of SCM 440 material by varying the total cutting angles of 700,750 and 800 then variations in feeding speed of 0.08mm, 0.09mm, and 0.10mm and spindle speed or RPM, namely 160,220, and 280 puts / min in the RSM method.

With stationary point value X0 = ( total Cut angle ) = - 0.382409, X0 = (feeding) = 0.161715, X0 = (RPM) = 0.578250. and found the optimal values of Wedge Angle (78.212), Feeding Speed (0.095 mm) and RPM (278.29 put/min). Then it can be analyzed the optimal value that is different from the value of the RSM method framework and if the values are the same then the research fails.

Intelligent backpropagated predictive networks for dynamics of the power-law fluidic model with moving wedge and flat plate

A novel application of intelligent computing is presented to study the dynamics of the power-law fluidic problem (PLFP) of moving-wedge and flat-plate models using a multilayer structure of feedforward neural networks (FFNNs) optimized with the Levenberg-Marquardt method (LMM), i.e. FFNN-LMM. The reference dataset for inputs and targets of FFNNs is generated through the Adams numerical solver for the non-Newtonian power-law fluidic system in the case of dilatant, pseudo-plastic, and other thinning/thickening fluids with different values of wedge angle and velocity ratio parameters. The designed FFNNs backpropagated with LMM are constructed with the help of arbitrary samples for training, testing, and validation via mean squared error (MSE)-based figure of merit. Comparison of the proposed computing platform FFNN-LMM with reference standard solutions in terms of MSE, state transition statistics of the algorithm, error histogram studies, and regression outcomes endorse the accuracy and convergence for solving different scenarios in PLFPs.

Performance of Microchannel Heat Sink Made of Silicon Material with the Two-Sided Wedge

New designs of the microchannel with a two-sided wedge shape at the base were studied numerically. Five different wedge angles ranging from 3° to 15° were incorporated into the microchannel design. Simulation of this novel microchannel was carried out using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Three-dimensional models of the microchannel heat sink were created, discretized, and based on Navier–Stokes and energy equations; laminar numerical solutions were obtained for heat transfer and pressure drop. Flow characteristics of water as coolant in a microchannel were studied. It was observed that numerical results are in good agreement with experimental results. It was found that the Nusselt number and friction factor are significantly varied with the increase in Reynolds number. The Nusselt number varies in the following ranges of 5.963–8.521, 5.986–8.550, 6.009–8.568, 6.040–8.609, and 6.078–8.644 at 3°, 6°, 9°, 12°, and 15°, respectively. The microchannel with a wedge angle of 15° was found to be better in terms of Nusselt number and thermo-hydraulic performance. The enhancement in the Nusselt number is found as 1.017–1.036 for a wedge angle of 15°; however, friction factors do not show the perceptible values at distinct values of wedge angle. Moreover, the thermo-hydraulic performance parameters (THPP) were evaluated and found to be maximum in the range of 1.027–1.045 for a wedge angle of 15°. However, minimum THPP was found in the range of 1.005–1.0185 for a wedge angle of 3°.

Analysis of boundary layer nanofluid flow over a stretching permeable wedge-shaped surface with magnetic effect

The problem of steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of momentum, heat and mass transfer over a stretching permeable wedge-shaped surface in a nanofluid in presence of magnetic field has been studied. In this respect, the governing partial differential equations have been converted into ordinary differential equations by using the local similarity transformation. The transformed governing equations have been then solved numerically using the bvp4c in MATLAB software. The effects of the pertinent parameters, namely wedge angle parameter (β), Brownian motion (Nb), thermophoresis (Nt), magnetic parameter (M), moving wedge parameter (λ), permeability parameter (K*), Prandtl number (Pr), and Lewis number (Le) on fluid velocity, thermal and concentration within the boundary layer have been analyzed. The numerical results obtained of the skin friction coefficients, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number, as well as the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles have been presented graphically and also in tabular form. The results indicate that the momentum boundary layer thickness increases with increasing values of wedge angle and moving wedge but reduces for magnetic and permeability effects. The heat transfer rate increases for wedge angle, moving wedge, Brownian motion but decreases for thermoporesis and magnetic effects. The mass transfer rate decreases for Brownian motion and thermoporesis effects but increases for wedge angle and moving wedge parameters. Finally, the numerical results have been compared with previously published research and found to be in good agreement.

Viscous dissipation effect on Williamson nanofluid over stretching/shrinking wedge with thermal radiation and chemical reaction

This paper scrutinizes the effect of viscous dissipation on unsteady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of Williamson nanofluid over a stretching/Shrinking wedge. To express the boundary condition in concentration problem the passive control concept used. The governing PDEs are converted to ODEs by means of a similarity transformation before being solved numerically by finite difference scheme called Keller-Box method. The equations were numerically solved by using Matlab software 2013a. The characteristics of parameters such as wedge angle, unsteadiness, Williamson, slip, Brownian motion, thermophoresis, chemical reaction parameters, Prandtl number, Biot-number, Eckert number and Lewis number on velocity, concentration and temperature profiles and skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are presented in graphs and tables. The result of the study designates that the velocity profiles increased with an upsurge of wedge angle, unsteady parameter and suction parameter while it is diminished with an increase of Williamson and injection parameter. The temperature profiles upsurges with the distended Williamson parameter, Biot number and injection parameter, while it is declined for large values of wedge angle, unsteady and suction parameter. With an increase of Williamson, unsteady and suction parameter the concentration profiles upsurges, while it is decreased with an increase of wedge angle and injection parameter. The numerical results are compared with available literature and obtained a good agreement.

MHD Heat and Mass Transfer Flow Over a Stretching Wedge with Convective Boundary Condition and Thermophoresis

In this study the unsteady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a stretching wedge under the influence of a transverse magnetic field, viscous dissipation, and wall slip is investigated. The governing partial differential equations of the flow are solved numerically. The point of flow separation is observed to occur at small times and for smaller values of wedge angle. The temperature is found to be an increasing function of Eckert and Biot numbers and a decreasing function of wedge angle.

Optimization technique in solving laminar boundary layer problems with temperature dependent viscosity

In this paper, a novel numerical method is proposed to solve specific third order ODE on semi-infinite interval. These kinds of problems often occur in laminar boundary layer with temperature dependent viscosity. Runge-Kutta method incorporating with optimization techniques is used to solve the problem. First, the semi-infinite interval is transformed into a finite interval. Second, by converting the boundary value problem, with some initial and distributed unknowns, into an optimization problem, solving the original problem is limited to solving a multiobjective optimization problem. Third, we use shooting-Newton's method for solving this optimization problem. It is shown that the Falkner-Skan problem with constant surface temperature, that arise during the solution for the laminar forced convection heat transfer from wedges to flow, can be solved accurately and simultaneously by this strategy. Numerical results for different values of wedge angle and Prandtl number are presented, which are in good agreement with some of the successful provided solutions in the literature.

Flow of power-law fluids over a moving wedge surface with wall mass injection

The boundary layer problem of a power-law fluid flow with fluid injection on a wedge whose surface is moving with a constant velocity in the opposite direction to that of the uniform mainstream is analyzed. The free stream velocity, the injection velocity at the surface, moving velocity of the wedge surface, the wedge angle and the power law index of non-Newtonian fluid are assumed variables. The fourth order Runge–Kutta method modified by Gill is used to solve the non-dimensional boundary layer equations for non-Newtonian flow field. Without fluid injection, for every angle of wedge β, a limiting value for velocity ratio λcr (velocity of the wedge surface/velocity of the uniform flow) is found for each power-law index n. The value of λcr increases with the increasing wedge angle β. The value of wedge angle also restricts the physical characteristics of the fluid to be used. The effects of the different parameters on velocity profile and on skin friction are studied and the drag reduction is discussed. In case of C = 2.5 and velocity ratio λ = 0.2 for wedge angle β = 0.5 with the fluid with power law-index n = 0.5, 48.8% drag reduction is obtained.

The influence of higher order effects on the linear wave instability of vertical free convective boundary layer flow

We examine the stability of free convective boundary layer flow over a vertical heated flat plate with respect to two-dimensional wave disturbances. In particular we determine the effect of the overall external geometry on the stability criterion. The fluid domain is taken to be bounded by two semi-infinite flat plates forming a wedge of angle α. The vertical plate is held at a uniform hot temperature while the other is either insulated or is held at the ambient temperature of the fluid. The basic flow used in the analysis is a two-term boundary-layer approximation using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. A modified version of the Keller-box method is used to solve the linearised wave-disturbance equations numerically. The neutral curves have been delineated for different values of wedge angle, α, where the working fluids are water and air. We find that the critical distance from the leading edge beyond which disturbances grow is strongly dependent on α, and this suggests that the external geometry of the fluid domain exerts a considerable influence on stability criteria.

Orientation of optic axis in wedged photorefractive crystals

A holographic method for finding the orientation of the optic axis of uniaxial photorefractive crystals is proposed. A theoretical procedure for determining the wedge angle of such crystals has also been developed. Two BaTiO 3 crystals grown by the same vender are examined and the resulting measurements lead to the values of wedge angle with an accuracy of about ±0.1°.

A theoretical analysis of spread and stress when drawing rectangular sections through wedge-shaped dies

This paper gives an upper bound solution to the problem of drawing rectangular sections through wedge shaped dies. The drawing material is assumed to be rigid perfectly plastic and a constant frictional stress is assumed on the entire die-material interface. The solution predicts spread and the corresponding drawing stress. The drawing stress is different from that for plane strain drawing for sections having low value of width/thickness ratio. As this ratio increases the process approaches the plane strain case. The paper also gives optimum values of wedge angle for minimum drawing stress.
