Significance of Dust Particles, Nanoparticles Radius, Coriolis and Lorentz Forces: The Case of Maxwell Dusty Fluid

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the momentum and thermal transport of a rotating dusty Maxwell nanofluid flow on a magnetohydrodynamic Darcy–Forchheimer porous medium with conducting dust particles. Nanouids are the most important source of effective heat source, having many applications in scientific and technological processes. The dust nanoparticles with superior thermal characteristics offer a wide range of uses in chemical and mechanical engineering eras and modern technology. In addition, nanofluid Cu-water is used as the heat-carrying fluid. The governing equations for the two phases model are partial differential equations later transmuted into ordinary ones via similarity transforms. An efficient code for the Runge–Kutta technique with a shooting tool is constructed in MATLAB script to obtain numeric results. The study is compared to previously published work and determined to be perfect. It is observed that the rising strength of the rotating and magnetic parameters cause to recede the x- and y-axis velocities in the two phase fluid, but the temperature function exhibits an opposite trend. By improving the diameter of nanoparticles Dm, the axial velocity improves while transverse velocity and temperature show the opposite behaviors. Furthermore, it is reported that the inclusion of dust particles or nanoparticles both cause to decline the primary and secondary velocities of fluid, and also dust particles decrease the temperature.
