Boundary Layer Flow of Magnetic Nanoliquids due to a Radially Rotating Stretchable Plate

Abstract:

The effects of stretchable rotating flat surface on the time dependent 3-dimensional boundary layer flow of magnetic nanoliquid in the presence of thermal radiation have been investigated. The modelled set of nonlinear coupled ODEs governing the flow is solved numerically by finite difference scheme and shooting technique. For understanding the effects of geothermal viscosity, stretching parameter and thermal radiation on the flow and temperature fields, a range of Prandtl number is taken into account. The heat transfer rate and skin frictions due to the above physical parameters are also computed. A significant enhancement in the resistance of the fluid flow is noticed due to the viscosity variations and the stretching of the plate. Further, the heat dissipation becomes faster with the enhancement of the thermal radiation and the Prandtl number.
