Chemical Reaction and Viscous Dissipative Effects on Buongiorno’s Nanofluid Model Past an Inclined Plane

Abstract

Abstract Nanofluid thermal usage has considerably enhanced heat and mass transfer characteristics, which are critical across various engineering industries. Numerous dynamic applications in renewable energy and thermodynamic engineering issues benefit from the study of nanofluids. In this paper we discuss the chemically viscous dissipative transport of Buongiorno’s nanofluid across an inclined plane considering the Brownian movement and thermophoresis effects. The governing equations and the related boundary conditions are normalized using the non-similarity transformation approach, and the relevant variables and corresponding non-similarity solutions are shown to summarize the transpiration parameters. The mathematical solutions are obtained using the Keller’s Box technique. For various thermo-physical parameter values, the numeric results are provided both physically and quantitatively. The graphical impacts of different thermos physical factors on momentum, energy, nanoparticle volume fraction concentration, skin friction, local Nusselt number and local Sherwood number are examined and well argued. The outcomes are well associated when compared to previously published literature.
