Analytical Approach on the Water-Based Nanofluid for the Influence of Dissipative Heat Energy

Abstract

The current study reveals the influence of both dissipative heat in water-based conducting nanoliquid through an impassioned semi-infinite vertical plate past embedding with a permeable medium. The effect of particle concentration in conjunction with transverse magnetic field and heat source/sink is presented by introducing the flow and heat transfer phenomena. However, various heat transfer assets of the considered nanofluid are exaggerated by assuming the slip condition. The reason is that, for the diminution in the heat transfer, the role of temperature slip is vital. For the transformation of governing PDEs into nonlinear coupled ODEs, it is necessary to assume suitable self-similar transformations. Moreover, a semi-analytical technique such as Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is employed to solve these transformed equations. The novelty of the study is to get a comparison of the result with the results obtained using the MATLAB in-build code bvp5c. The numerical results for the comparison between both the methods have been presented in tabular form and the control of various parameters for the flow phenomena is demonstrated via graphs.
