Hydromagnetic-oscillatory flow of a nanofluid with Hall effect and thermal radiation past vertical plate in a rotating porous medium

Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of thermal radiation interaction with Hall current, buoyancy force, and oscillatory surface temperature on hydromagnetic-mixed convective heat exchange stream of an electrically conducting nanofluid past a moving permeable plate in a porous medium within a rotating system. Design/methodology/approach Analytical closed-form solutions are obtained for both the momentum and the energy equations using the perturbation method. Findings The effects of various important parameters on velocity and temperature fields within the boundary layer are discussed for three different water-based nanofluids containing copper (Cu), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), and titanium dioxide (TiO2) as nanoparticles. Local skin friction and Nusselt number are illustrated graphically and discussed quantitatively. The results show that Hall current significantly affects the flow system. Results for some special cases of the present analysis are in good agreement with the existing literature. Originality/value The problem is relatively original to study the hydromagnetic-oscillatory flow of a nanofluid with Hall effect and thermal radiation past a vertical plate in a rotating porous medium.
