Analysis of Williamson nanofluid MHD over a nonlinear stretchable sheet by velocity slip and newtonian heating

Abstract

In this paper, the influence of velocity slip and the Newtonian heating parameters on Williamson Nanofluid across a variable stretching sheet is studied. The basic fluid flow equations are turned into a system of coupled ordinary differential equations with appropriate conditions, which are solved numerically with the Keller-box approach. The outcomes show that, increasing Williamson parameter, due to the viscosity velocity of the fluid slowdown. As a result, it is noticed that the velocity slip parameter reduces Williamson Nanofluid velocity, while increasing shear stress, according to the results. Furthermore, it has been discovered that unlike velocity profiles, the slip influence is more pronounced on temperature and concentration profiles. Furthermore, the Newtonian heating parameter may be shown to have rising functions for velocity and dimensionless temperature. Newtonian heating has uses in the petroleum industry, heat exchangers, conjugate heat transfer around fins and solar radiation. It is discovered that the Joule heating parameter improves the thermal boundary layer thickness and slows down the velocity of the fluid, which aids in maintaining system temperature. Additionally, it has been found that the temperature profile exhibits a stronger slip effect compared with the velocity profile. To prepare toffee, chocolate and other delicacies as efficiently as possible, it is crucial to investigate the flow of Williamson fluids (such as drilling muds, clay coatings, various suspensions and some lubricating oils, thermoplastic melts, and a variety of colloids) in the incidence of heat transfer. The novelty of this paper is the effect of joule heating, Newtonian heating parameter and velocity slip on Williamson fluid velocity and temperature gradient. Furthermore, the heat and mass transfer rates are calculated for various parameters numerically and shown in tabular form.
