Caputo Time Fractional Model Based on Generalized Fourier’s and Fick’s Laws for Jeffrey Nanofluid: Applications in Automobiles

Abstract

This article aims to examine Jeffery nanofluid with joint effects of mass and heat transfer in a horizontal channel. The classical model is transferred to the Caputo fractional model by using the generalized Fourier’s and Fick’s laws. The nanofluids are formed by dispersing two different nanoparticles, silver and copper, into a based fluid. A novel transformation has been applied to the mass and energy equation and then solved by using the sine Fourier and the Laplace transformation jointly. The exact solution is given in terms of a special function, that is, the Mittag-Leffler function. The Sherwood number and Nusselt number are calculated and displayed in the tabular form. The effect of embedded parameters on the velocity, concentration, and temperature profile is discussed graphically. It is noted that the heat transfer rate of EO is improved by 28.24% when the volume fraction of Ag nanoparticles is raised from 0.00 to 0.04.
