Energy transmission through radiative ternary nanofluid flow with exponential heat source/sink across an inclined permeable cylinder/plate: numerical computing

Abstract

AbstractThe steady two-dimension (2D) ternary nanofluid (TNF) flow across an inclined permeable cylinder/plate is analyzed in the present study. The TNF flow has been examined under the consequences of heat source/sink, permeable medium and mixed convection. For the preparation of TNF, the magnesium oxide (MgO), cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are dispersed in water. The rising need for highly efficient cooling mechanisms in several sectors and energy-related processes ultimately inspired the current work. The fluid flow and energy propagation is mathematically described in the form of coupled PDEs. The system of PDEs is reduced into non-dimensional forms of ODEs, which are further numerically handled through the Matlab package (bvp4c). It has been observed that the results display that the porosity factor advances the thermal curve, whereas drops the fluid velocity. The effect of heat source/sink raises the energy field. Furthermore, the plate surface illustrates a leading behavior of energy transport over cylinder geometry versus the variation of ternary nanoparticles (NPs). The energy dissemination rate in the cylinder enhances from 4.73 to 11.421%, whereas for the plate, the energy distribution rate boosts from 6.37 to 13.91% as the porosity factor varies from 0.3 to 0.9.
