Vibrational double diffusion has gained increasing attention in recent studies due to its role in enhancing mixing, disrupting thermal boundary layers, and stabilizing convection structures, especially in nanofluids and porous media. This study focuses on the case of two-phase nanofluid flow in the presence of vibrational effects. The flow domain is a fined chamber that is filled with a non-Darcy porous medium. Two concentration formulations are proposed for the species concentration and nanoparticle concentration. The thermal radiation is in both the x- and y-directions, while the flow domain is considered to be inclined. The solution technique depends on an effective finite volume method. The periodic behaviors of the stream function, Nusselt numbers, and Sherwood numbers against the progressing time are presented and interpreted. From the major results, a significant reduction in harmonic behaviors of the stream function is obtained as the lengths of the fins are raised while the gradients of the temperature and concentration are improved. Also, a higher rate of heat and mass transfer is obtained when the vibration frequency is raised. Furthermore, for fixed values of the Rayleigh number and vibration frequency (Ra = 104, σ = 500), the heat transfer coefficient improves by 27.2% as the fin length increases from 0.1 to 0.25.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is employed in fluid flow models to enhance the simulation’s accuracy, to more effectively optimize the fluid flow models, and to realize reliable fluid flow systems with improved performance. Jeffery fluid flow through the interstice of a cone-and-disk system is considered in this study. The mathematical description of this flow involves converting a partial differential system into a nonlinear ordinary differential system and solving it using a neurocomputational technique. The fluid streaming through the disk–cone gap is investigated under four contrasting frameworks, i.e., (i) passive cone and spinning disk, (ii) spinning cone and passive disk, (iii) cone and disk rotating in the same direction, and (iv) cone and disk rotating in opposite directions. Employing the recently developed technique of artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be effective for handling and optimizing fluid flow exploits. The proposed approach integrates training, testing and analysis, and authentication based on a locus dataset to address various aspects of fluid problems. The mean square error, regression plots, curve-fitting graphs, and error histograms are used to evaluate the performance of the least mean square neural network algorithm (LMS-NNA). The results show that these equations are consistently aligned, and agreement is, on average, in the order of 10−8. While the resting parameters were kept static, the transverse velocity distribution, in all four cases, exhibited an incremental decreasing behavior in the estimates of magnetic and Jeffery fluid factors. Furthermore, the results obtained were compared with those in the literature, and the close agreement confirms our results. To train the model, 80% of the data were used for LMS-NNA, with 10% used for testing and the remaining 10% for validation. The quantitative and qualitative outputs obtained from the neural network strategy and parameter variation were thoroughly examined and discussed. Full article

A model of quasilinear differential equations is derived in the context of Rational Extended Thermodynamics to investigate some non-equilibrium phenomena in nanofluids. Following the classical Buongiorno approach, the model assumes nanofluids to be suspensions of two phases: nanoparticles and the base fluid. The field variables are the classical ones and, in addition, the stress tensors and the heat fluxes of both constituents. Balance laws for all field variables are assumed. The obtained system is not closed; therefore, universal physical principles, such as Galilean Invariance and the Entropy Principles, are invoked to close the set of field equations. The obtained model is also written in terms of the whole nanofluid and compared with the classical Buongiorno model. This allowed also the identifications of some parameters in terms of experimental data. The obtained set of field equations has the advantage to recover the Buongiorno model when the phenomena are near equilibrium. At the same time it consists of a hyperbolic set of field equations. Hyperbolicity guarantees finite speeds of propagation and more suitable descriptions of transient regimes. The present model can be used in order to investigate waves, shocks and other phenomena that can be easily described in hyperbolic systems. Furthermore, as a first application and in order to show the potential of the model, stationary 1D solutions are determined and some thermal properties of nanofluids are studied. The solution exhibits, already in the simplest case herein considered, a more accurate evaluation of some fields like the stress tensor components. Full article

This paper introduces fractional Brownian motion into the study of Maxwell nanofluids over a stretching surface. Nonlinear coupled spatial fractional-order energy and mass equations are established and solved numerically by the finite difference method with Newton’s iterative technique. The quantities of physical interest are graphically presented and discussed in detail. It is found that the modified model with fractional Brownian motion is more capable of explaining the thermal conductivity enhancement. The results indicate that a reduction in the fractional parameter leads to thinner thermal and concentration boundary layers, accompanied by higher local Nusselt and Sherwood numbers. Consequently, the introduction of a fractional Brownian model not only enriches our comprehension of the thermal conductivity enhancement phenomenon but also amplifies the efficacy of heat and mass transfer within Maxwell nanofluids. This achievement demonstrates practical application potential in optimizing the efficiency of fluid heating and cooling processes, underscoring its importance in the realm of thermal management and energy conservation.

This study explores the synergistic impact of zero flux and convective boundary conditions on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary-layer slip flow of nanofluid over a moving surface, utilizing Buongiorno’s model. In a landscape of expanding nanofluid applications, understanding boundary condition interactions is crucial. Employing a systematic approach, we varied key parameters, including surface velocity, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, Eckert number, Prandtl number, and Lewis number, systematically investigating their effects on flow and heat transfer. Numerical simulations focused on critical metrics such as skin friction coefficients; Nusselt and Sherwood numbers; and temperature, concentration, and velocity profiles. Noteworthy findings include the amplifying effect of a magnetic field and viscous dissipation on temperature profiles and the dual impact of heightened velocity slip on temperature and velocity profiles, which result in a thicker concentration boundary layer. Beyond academia, we envision our research having practical applications in optimizing high-temperature processes, bio-sensors, paints, pharmaceuticals, coatings, cosmetics, and space technology.

Investigating natural convection heat transfer of nanofluids in various geometries has garnered significant attention due to its potential applications across several disciplines. This study presents a numerical simulation of the natural convection heat transfer and entropy generation process in an E-shaped porous cavity filled with nanofluids, implementing Buongiorno’s simulation model. Analyzing the behavior of individual nanoparticles, or even the entire nanofluid system at the molecular level, can be extremely computationally intensive. Symmetry is a fundamental concept in science that can help reduce this computational burden considerably. In this study, nanofluids are frequently conceived of as a combination of water and Al2O3 nanoparticles at a concentration of up to 4% by volume. A unique correlation was proposed to model the effective thermal conductivity of nanofluids. The average Nusselt number, entropy production, and Rayleigh number have been illustrated to exhibit a decreasing trend when the volume concentration of nanoparticles inside the porous cavity rises; the 4% vol. water–alumina NFs yield 17.35% less average Nu number compared to the base water.

Nonlinear thermal transport of non-Newtonian polymer flows is an increasingly important area in materials engineering. Motivated by new developments in this area which entail more refined and more mathematical frameworks, the present analysis investigates the boundary-layer approximation and heat transfer persuaded by a symmetrical cylindrical surface positioned horizontally. To simulate thermal relaxation impacts, the bioconvection Cross nanofluid flow Buongiorno model is deployed. The study examines the magnetic field effect applied to the nanofluid using the heat generated, as well as the melting phenomenon. The nonlinear effect of thermosolutal buoyant forces is incorporated into the proposed model. The novel mathematical equations include thermophoresis and Brownian diffusion effects. Via robust transformation techniques, the primitive resulting partial equations for momentum, energy, concentration, and motile living microorganisms are rendered into nonlinear ordinary equations with convective boundary postulates. An explicit and efficient numerical solver procedure in the Mathematica 11.0 programming platform is developed to engage the nonlinear equations. The effects of multiple governing parameters on dimensionless fluid profiles is examined using plotted visuals and tables. Finally, outcomes related to the surface drag force, heat, and mass transfer coefficients for different influential parameters are presented using 3D visuals. Full article

Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is the periodic motion of a bluff body caused by fluid flow and is widely discussed in the engineering field. With the advancement of science and technology, miniaturization and integration have become the mainstream trends in biomedical chips and electronic systems, resulting in higher heat dissipation requirements per unit area. Therefore, the improvement of the heat dissipation effect of movable structures in the flow channel has been widely discussed. Among them, adding VIV motion in the microchannel generates a vortex structure, which improves heat transfer efficiency. Different from the direct displacement method of active vibration, the passive displacement of VIV is a multi-physics problem. It needs to integrate the flow field and the spring-mass system of the object for fluid–solid coupling, which greatly increases the difficulty of analysis. In this study, the Immersed-boundary method (IBM) combined with the equation of motion is used to numerically study a vortex generator that is elastically installed in a microfluidic channel and is then used to enhance the convective heat transfer of nanofluids in the channel. Unlike the common body-fitted mesh, IBM greatly reduces the computational resources required for mesh regeneration when simulating the problem of object movement in fluid–structure interaction. In addition, Buongiorno’s two-phase mixing model is used to simulate the convective heat transfer of nanofluids in microchannels by considering the Brownian motion and thermophoretic diffusion of nanoparticles in the carrier liquid. By changing the important parameters such as nanofluid concentration, Reynolds number, mass ratio, and Ur, the influence of the response characteristics of vortex-induced vibration on the heat flow field in the microfluidic channel is discussed, and the key factors for enhancing heat transfer are found out.

Exploration related to chemical processes in nanomaterial flows contains astonishing features. Nanoparticles have unique physical and chemical properties, so they are continuously used in almost every field of nanotechnology and nanoscience. The motive behind this article is to investigate the Cross nanofluid model along with its chemical processes via auto catalysts, inclined magnetic field phenomena, heat generation, Brownian movement, and thermophoresis phenomena over a symmetric shrinking (stretching) wedge. The transport of heat via nonuniform heat sources/sinks, the impact of thermophoretic diffusion, and Brownian motion are considered. The Buongiorno nanofluid model is used to investigate the impact of nanofluids on fluid flow. Modeled PDEs are transformed into ODEs by utilizing similarity variables and handling dimensionless ODEs numerically with the adoption of MATLAB’s developed bvp4c technique. This software performs a finite difference method that uses the collocation method with a three-stage LobattoIIIA strategy. Obtained outcomes are strictly for the case of a symmetric wedge. The velocity field lessens due to amplification in the magneto field variable. Fluid temperature is amplified through the enhancement of Brownian diffusion and the concentration field improves under magnification in a homogeneous reaction effect. Full article

This work examines the non-Newtonian Cassonnanofluid’s three-dimensional flow and heat and mass transmission properties over a Riga plate. The Buongiorno nanofluid model, which is included in the present model, includes thermo-migration and random movement of nanoparticles. It also took into account the Cattaneo–Christov double flux processes in the mass and heat equations. The non-Newtonian Casson fluid model and the boundary layer approximation are included in the modeling of nonlinear partial differential systems. The homotopy technique was used to analytically solve the system’s governing equations. To examine the impact of dimensionless parameters on velocities, concentrations, temperatures, local Nusselt number, skin friction, and local Sherwood number, a parametric analysis was carried out. The velocity profile is augmented in this study as the size of the modified Hartmann number increases. The greater thermal radiative enhances the heat transport rate. When the mass relaxation parameter is used, the mass flux values start to decrease. Full article

This study aims to investigate the magnetohydrodynamic flow induced by a moving surface in a nanofluid and the occurrence of suction and solar radiation effects using the Buongiorno model. The numerical findings are obtained using MATLAB software. The effects of various governing parameters on the rates of heat and mass transfer along with the nanoparticles concentration and temperature profiles are elucidated graphically. Non-unique solutions are discovered for a specific variation of the shrinking strength. The temporal stability analysis shows that only one of them is stable as time passes. Furthermore, raising the Brownian motion parameter reduces both the local Sherwood number and the local Nusselt number for both solutions. It is also observed that increasing the thermophoresis parameter reduces the rate of heat transfer, whereas the opposite trend is observed for the rate of mass transfer. Full article

The current analysis discusses Jeffery nanofluid’s thermally radiative flow with convection over a stretching wedge. It takes into account the Brownian movement and thermophoresis of the Buongiorno nanofluid model. The guiding partial differential equations (PDEs) are modified by introducing the symmetry variables, leading to non-dimensional ordinary differential equations (ODEs). To solve the generated ODEs, the MATLAB function bvp4c is implemented. Examined are the impacts of different flow variables on the rate of transmission of heat transfer (HT), temperature, mass, velocity, and nanoparticle concentration (NC). It has been noted that the velocity and mass transfer were increased by the pressure gradient factor. Additionally, the thermal boundary layer (TBL) and nanoparticle concentration are reduced by the mixed convection (MC) factor. In order to validate the present research, the derived numerical results were compared to previous findings from the literature while taking into account the specific circumstances. It was found that there was good agreement in both sets of data. Full article

Nanofluids are considered as an effective way to enhance the thermal conductivity of heat transfer fluids. Additionally, the involvement of micro-organisms makes the liquid more stable, which is important in nanotechnology, bio-nano cooling systems, and bio-microsystems. Therefore, the current investigation focused on the examination of the thermodynamic and mass transfer of a Carreau–Yasuda magnetic bionanomaterial with gyrotactic micro-organisms, which is facilitated by radiative peristaltic transport. A compliant/elastic symmetric channel subject to partial slip constraints was chosen. The features of viscous dissipation and ohmic heating were incorporated into thermal transport. We use the Brownian and thermophoretic movement characteristics of the Buongiorno nanofluid model in this study. A set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations are created from the partial differential equations that control fluid flow. The governing system of differential equations is solved numerically via the shooting technique. The results of pertinent parameters are examined through velocity, temperature, motile micro-organisms, concentration, and heat transfer rate. Full article

This research investigated the flow and heat mass transmission of a thermal Buongiorno nanofluid film caused by an unsteady stretched sheet. The movement of the nanoparticles through the thin film layer is caused by the strength of the heat flow and the stretching force of the sheet working together. The thermal thin-film flow and heat mechanism, and the properties of mass transfer along the film layer, were comprehensively investigated. The consequences of the heat generation, magnetic field, and dissipation phenomenon were also thoroughly examined. Using appropriate dimensionless variables, the fundamental time-dependent equations of thin film nanofluid flow and heat mass transfer were modeled and converted to the ordinary differential equations system. Mathematica version 12 is the software that was used to build the numerical code here. Next, the shooting technique was applied to numerically solve the transformed equations. The elegance of the shooting technique and evidence of the consistency, dependability, and precision of our acquired results is that the results are more effective than those for the thin film nanofluid equations that are now available. There is a significant degree of consistency between the recently calculated results and the results that have been published for a limiting condition. Investigations were conducted into the effects of a variety of parameters on the flow of nanoliquid films, including the Nusselt number, skin friction, and Sherwood number. In addition, a detailed overview of the physical embedded parameters is provided through graphs and tables. However, the important features of the most relevant outcomes are the effects of higher porous and unsteadiness parameters on minimizing the thickness of the thin film; and the viscoelastic parameter has the reverse effect. Additionally, it is seen that the temperature profile improves as a result of higher thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameter values. Full article

Motivated by emerging high-temperature manufacturing processes deploying nano-polymeric coatings, the present study investigates nonlinear thermally radiative Oldroyd-B viscoelastic nanoliquid stagnant-point flow from a heated vertical stretching permeable surface. Robin (mixed derivative) conditions were utilized in order to better represent coating fabrication conditions. The nanoliquid analysis was based on Buongiorno’s two-component model, which features Brownian movement and thermophoretic attributes. Nonlinear buoyancy force and thermal radiation formulations are included. Chemical reactions (constructive and destructive) were also considered since coating synthesis often features reactive transport phenomena. An ordinary differential equation model was derived from the primitive partial differential boundary value problem using a similarity approach. The analytical solutions were achieved by employing a homotopy analysis scheme. The influence of the emerging dimensionless quantities on the transport characteristics was comprehensively explained using appropriate data. The obtained analytical outcomes were compared with the literature and good correlation was achieved. The computations show that the velocity profile was diminished with an increasing relaxation parameter, whereas it was enhanced when the retardation parameter was increased. A larger thermophoresis parameter induces an increase in temperature and concentration. The heat and mass transfer rates at the wall were increased with incremental increases in the temperature ratio and first order chemical reaction parameters, whereas contrary effects were observed for larger thermophoresis, fluid relaxation and Brownian motion parameters. The simulations can be applied to the stagnated nano-polymeric coating of micromachines, robotic components and sensors. Full article
