Mathematical Investigation for Flow Characteristics of Laminar Ferro-Nanofluid Incorporating Cobalt Ferrite Nanoparticles

Abstract:

The effect of a magnetic source of variable strength has been studied on ferro-nanofluid incorporating nanoparticles of Cobalt ferrite (CoFe₂O₄) with water as a base fluid. Group method has been used to remodel the governing system to a system of ordinary differential equations. The recent study was motivated by inspecting the effect of four parameters including nanoparticles volume fraction, , Prandtl number, , magnetic field strength of the source,, and temperature difference ratio with respect to ambient temperature, . The results showed that the nanofluid velocity and shear stress increased as long as and increase. On the other hand, both are inversely related to the increment in Pr and Temperature distribution inside the boundary layer was noticed to increase due to the increment in Pr values and decrease due to the increment ratios. Contrarily, the heat flux throughout the boundary layer decreased and increased due to increasing respectively. Key words: Ferro-hydrodynamic; Nanofluids; Group Method
