Analysis of Entropy Generation in Micropolar Magneto-Nanoliquid Material with Activation Energy and Nonlinear Radiation

Abstract:

This study investigates entropy production analysis in the flow of micropolar nanoliquid due to its application in thermal engineering systems for the identification of the factors which causes the destruction in the available energy and consequently affects overall performance of the thermal devices. The model is built on a two-dimensional porous stretching sheet with an incompressible fluid assumption and steady with the influence of variable thermal conductivity, nonlinear thermal radiation, haphazard motion and thermo-migration tiny particles. A prescribed surface temperature is adopted as the thermal heating condition while the impact of the reaction order and activation energy are incorporated into the concentration field. The model equations are restructured to ordinary derivative system, which is computationally solved by Fehlberg Runge-Kutta technique. The results agree well with previous outcomes for limiting situations while the effects of the embedded terms are presented graphs. The analysis reveals that a rise in variable thermal conductivity, the material term and viscous dissipation leads to a rise in the irreversibility process.
