Temperature-Dependent Density and Magnetohydrodynamic Effects on Mixed Convective Heat Transfer along Magnetized Heated Plate in Thermally Stratified Medium Using Keller Box Simulation

Abstract

The heat transmission properties along the non-magnetized geometries have been numerically obtainedby various researchers. These mechanisms are less interesting in engineering and industrial processes because of excessive heating. According to current studies, the surface is magnetized and the fluid is electrically conductive, which helps to lessen excessive surface heating. The main objective of the current analysis is to numerically compute the temperature-dependent density effect on magnetohydrodynamic convective heat-transfer phenomena of electrical-conductive fluid flow along the vertical magnetized and heated plate placed in a thermally stratified medium. For the purpose of numerical analysis, the theoretical process governing heat and magnetic intensity along a vertical magnetic plate is examined. By using suitable and well-known similarity transformations for integration, the non-linear coupled PDEs for the aforementioned electrical-conductive fluid flow mechanism are changed and subsequently converted into non-similar formulation. The Keller Box method is used to numerically integrate the final non-similar equations. The MATLAB software program plots the transformed algebraic equations graphically and quantitatively. The behavior of the physical quantities such asvelocity graph, magnetic field graph, and temperature plot along with their slopes that arerate of skin friction, the rate of heat transfer, and the rate of magnetic intensity for different parameters included in the flow model. The novelty of the current work is to compute the magneto-thermo analysis of electrically conducting flow along the vertical symmetric heated plate. First, we secure the numerical solution for steady part and then these results are used to find skin friction, heat transfer, and magnetic intensity. In the current work, the fluid becomes electrically conducing due to a magnetized surface which insulates heat during the mechanism and reduces the excessive heating. The results are excellent and accurate because they are satisfied by its given boundary conditions. Additionally, the current problems have a big impact on the production of polymer materials, glass fiber, petroleum, plastic films, polymer sheets, heat exchangers, catalytic reactors, and electronic devices.
