A two-dimensional boundary layer steady flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid on a stretching sheet in the presence of a magnetic field is considered in this paper. The magnetic(Fe2O3)and non-magnetic(Cu)nanoparticles are used in water as a base fluid.The heat transfer process is sourced from the Newtonian heating boundary condition. The mathematical model of the flow is formulated by using a single-phase approach, which takes the nanofluid as a single homogeneous fluid.Under certain special condition for the existence of an exact solution, a system of governing nonlinear partial differential equations is reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations by using a suitable non-dimensional variable transformation.The Maple is used to obtain the exact solution in terms of the Whittaker function. We find that the nanofluid containing Cu nanoparticles has higher heat transfer rate than Fe2O3-water nanofluid.
A nanofluid is a suspension of metallic and non-metallic nanoparticles with dimension of less than 100 nm in the engineered colloidal liquids. Two decades ago, the concept of nanofluid was introduced by CHOI[1] to indicate engineered colloids composed of nanoparticles dispersed in a base fluid. The nanoparticles used in nanofluid are typically composed of metals, oxides, carbides or carbon nanotubes. Nanofluid possesses incredible thermo-physical properties, which do not exist in the convective heat transfer fluids, like water and organic fluids. The nanoparticles are relatively close to the molecules of the base fluid in size. Therefore, the suspension remains stable with little gravitational settling over a long time.Generally, mathematical modelling of nanofluid heat transfer flow can be classified as single-phase and two-phase models. In the single-phase approach, the combination of base fluid and nanoparticles is considered as a single-phase mixture with steady properties. By assuming negligible motion slip between the nanoparticles and the continuous phase, and the thermal equilibrium conditions also prevail, so the nanofluid may be then considered as a conventional single-phase fluid with effective thermo-physical properties. The single-phase model is very popular to study nanofluid behaviours numerically because of its simplicity. TIWARI et al.[2] used finite volume approach to study Cu-water nanofluid inside a two-sided heated square cavity. They concluded that the rate of heat transfer increased approximately 30% at 0.08 nanoparticles volume fraction. IZADI et al.[3] studied forced convection laminar flow of Al2O3-water nanofluid in an annulus by using single-phase model. The study of three types of nanofluids, namely, Cu, TiO2 and Al2O3 merged into water based fluid by using single-phase model was done by HADY et al.[4]. BAZDIDI-TEHRANI et al.[5] investigated mixed convection laminar flow of CuO-water and TiO2-water nanofluids inside a vertical rectangular channel by using single-phase model.Buoyancy induced flow of Cu-water nanofluid-filled eccentric annulus subject to a constant heat flux was investigated by HU et al.[6].MEHRYAN et al.[7] studied natural convection heat transfer through Fe3O4-water nanofluid in a square enclosure under the effect of entropy generation and horizontal periodic magnetic field numerically.
In the two-phase approach, the nanoparticles and the base fluid can be distinguished as two separated phases with different thermo-physical properties.DINARVAND et al.[8] performed a two-phase model simulation for double-diffusive mixed convection flow of a nanofluid under diffusiophoresis. SHEHZAD et al.[9] utilized the two-phase model to investigate nanofluid heat transfer convection in a wavy channel. KEFAYATI[10] examined the entropy generation on nanofluid flow in a porous cavity using two-phase mixture model.JAFARIMOGHADDAM[11] numerically investigated magnetic nanofluids over a stretching or shrinking wall. They used a two-phase mixture model to study the nanofluid thermal behaviour.SIDDIQA et al.[12] presented a two-phase dusty nanofluid free convection flow along a heated vertical wavy surface. Recently, a numerical study of hydrothermal analysis of boehmite alumina-water/ethylene glycol nanofluid in a minichannel heat exchanger was done by ALSARRAF et al.[13]. The nanofluid in the minichannel was assumed to be a two-phase mixture. Several other authors used the two-phase model in order to simulate heat transfer in nanofluids[14-18].
A porous medium is a continuous solid phase which having void spaces in it. The fraction of the void space to the total volume is named as porosity. Industrial and engineering applications of flows through the porous medium have attracted the attention of researchers. Purification and filtration processes, seepage of water in river beds, migration of pollutants into the soil and aquifers, drying of porous materials in textile industries, the movement of moisture through and under engineering structures, heat and mass transport in packed bed reactor columns are among the application and filtration of solids from liquids. “Flow is linearly dependent on the pressure gradient and the gravitational force” is known as Darcy Law. This law is generally accepted as the macroscopic equation of motion for the Newtonian fluids in porous media at small Reynolds numbers and when the medium is close-packed, i.e., it has a lower permeability.The peristaltic flow of Maxwell fluid with Hall and porous boundaries effects was investigated by KOMY et al.[19]. MEKHEIMER et al.[20] studied the effect of magnetic field and space porosity on the peristaltic motion of a Maxwell fluid in a confined parallel-plane microchannel. SHEREMET et al.[21] applied the two-phase model to study the double-diffusive mixed flow in a porous enclosure.ABDELSALAM et al.[22] studied the flow of Jeffrey fluid through a porous medium induced by a surface acoustic wave in a confined parallel-plane microchannel. Recently, ELMABOUD et al.[23] investigated electromagnetic flow through two regions. The first one is full of permeable matrix soaked in a Newtonian fluid and the second one has pure fluid.
The aim of the present work is to introduce a direct and effective method to obtain the analytical solution for steady two-dimensional flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid caused by a stretching sheet. Magnetic(Fe2O3)and non-magnetic(Cu)nanoparticles are considered in water as convectional based fluid. Newtonian heating condition has been applied to simulate the situation where the heat is transported to the convective fluid via a bounding surface which having finite heat capacity. The mathematical model is formulated base on a single-phase model. The thermal conductivity, heat capacity and viscosity are dependent on nanoparticles volume fraction.
In the present study, an external uniform magnetic field is imposed on a nanofluid, and leads to an electromagnetic force due to the interaction of current with magnetic field. In the view of Ohm's law, the current density J is defined as
J=σNF(E+V×B)(1)
where E is the electric field intensity, which is neglected due to small magnetic Reynolds, V is the velocity, B is the magnetic flux intensity and σNF is the nanofluid electrical conductivity expressed as
σNF=[1+(3(σ-1)φ)/((σ+2)-(σ-1)φ)]σBF, σ=(σNP)/(σBF)(2)
In magneto-fluid mechanics, Maxwell's equations are
Δ ·B=0,Δ ×B=μ0J,Δ ×E=(B)/(t)(3)
where μ0 is the magnetic permeability. Finally, the electromagnetic force FM is
FM=J×B=σNF(V×B)×B=-σNFB20V(4)
Since the nanofluid is flowing through a porous medium, the Darcy's law, which shows that the relationship between the pressure drop induced by the frictional drag and velocity, is
FR=-(μNF)/λV(5)
where λ is the permeability of porous medium and μNF is the effective dynamic viscosity of a nanofluid, given by BRINKMAN[24] as
μNF=μBF1/((1-φ)2.5)(6)
The body force FB per unit mass is
FB=ρNFg(7)
The effective density ρNF of a nanofluid given by PAK et al.[25]
ρNF=[(ρNP)/(ρBF)φ+(1-φ)] ρBF(8)
The steady 2D flow of nanofluids is considered through a porous medium. The x-axis is taken in the direction of the sheet subject to Newtonian heating condition and y-axis is normal on it. Under these conditions, the flow is governed by the following equations
Δ ·V=0(9)
(V)/(t)+(V·Δ )V=-1/(ρNF)Δ p+1/(ρNF)div(τij)+
FM+FR+FB(10)
(E)/(t)+(V·Δ )E=-(Δ ·q″)-(Δ ·qr)(11)
All quantities and symbols are given in the nomenclature. The velocity field for 2D flows is defined as
V=[u(x,y),v(x,y),0](12)
After neglecting the pressure gradient and body forces, the continuity and motion equations in view of Eq.(4), Eq.(5)and Eq.(7)become
(u)/(x)+(v)/(y)=0(13)
ρNF(u(u)/(x)+v(u)/(y))=μNF((2u)/(y2)-1/λu)-σNFB20u(14)
The total energy per unit volume which consists of internal energy and kinetic energy,can be expressed as
E=ρNF(e+(V2)/2)(15)
According to Ref.[26], the specific internal energy e can be expressed by using thermodynamic relation as
e=(Cp)NFT-p/(ρNF)(16)
where(Cp)NF is the heat capacity of nanofluid. In terms of temperature field, the heat flux q″ is defined as
q″=-KNFΔ T(17)
where KNF is the nanofluid thermal conductivity, which is defined as
(KNF)/(KBF)=(1-φ+2φ((KNP)/(KNP-KBF))ln((KNP+KBF)/(2KBF)))/(1-φ+2φ((KBF)/(KNP-KBF))ln((KNP+KBF)/(2KBF)))(18)
The pressure is approximately uniform and T=T(x,y)in the present problem, so Eq.(11)becomes
(ρCp)NF(u(T)/(x)+v(T)/(y))=KNF(2T)/(y2)-(qr)/(y)(19)
The corresponding boundary conditions are
u=uw(x)=ax, v=vw(x),(T)/(y)=-hsT at y=0(20)
u→0, T→T∞ as y→∞(21)
By introducing the following non-dimensional variables
u=axf '(η), v=-(avBF)1/2f(η),
η=y(a/(νBF))1/2, θ(η)=(T-T∞)/(T∞)(22)
Using the Rosseland approximation[27], in Eq.(19), and incorporating above non-dimensional variables into Eq.(14)and Eq.(19), we obtain the following equations
f (η)+(1-φ)2.5(1-φ+φ(ρNP)/(ρBF))[f ″(η)f(η)-
f '2(η)]-1/Pf '(η)-(1-φ)2.5
[1+(3(σ-1)φ)/((σ+2)-(σ-1)φ)] Mf '(η)=0(23)
((KNF)/(KBF)+R)θ ″(η)+Pr[1-φ+φ((ρCp)NP)/((ρCp)BF)]
θ '(η)f(η)=0(24)
The boundary conditions become
f(η)=0, f '(η)=1, θ '(η)=-γ[1+θ(η)],η=0(25)
f '(η)→0, θ(η)→0, η→∞(26)
where
P=(aλ)/(νBF), M=(σBFB20)/(aρBF), Pr=(νBF)/(αBF), αBF=(KBF)/((ρCp)BF),
R=(16σ*T 3∞)/(3δKBF), γ=hs((νBF)/a)1/2.
Follow the HAMAD[28], the exact solution of Eq.(23), subject to the boundary conditions(25)and(26), is obtained as
f(η)=1/((ω1+1/P+ω2M)1/2)[1-exp(-(ω1+1/P+ω2M)1/2)η](27)
where
ω1=(1-φ)2.5(1-φ+φ(ρNP)/(ρBF)),
ω2=(1-φ)2.5(1+(3(σ-1)φ)/((σ+2)-(σ-1)φ)).
Substituting Eq.(17)into Eq.(24), we get
1/(Pr ω3)(ω4+R)θ″(η)+1/ζ[1-exp(-ζη)]θ'(η)=0(28)
where
ζ=(φ1+P+φ2M)1/2, ω3=(1-φ)+φ((ρCp)NP)/((ρCp)BF),
ω4=(KNF)/(KBF).
By using τ=exp(-ζη), the above equations transform to
1/(Prω3)(ω4+R)ζ2[θ'(τ)+τθ″(τ)]-(1-τ)θ'(τ)=0(29)
with transformed boundary conditions
θ(0)=0, θ'(1)=γ/ζ[1+θ(1)](30)
The analytic solution of Eq.(29)in term of independent variable τ is
θ(τ)=D1+D2
[(l3(l+τ+1))/((l+1)(2l+1))WhittakerM(-(l-1)/(2l),(2l+1)/(2l), τ/l)]F(τ)+
D2[(l2(l+1))/((2l+1))WhittakerM((l+1)/(2l),(2l+1)/(2l), τ/l)]F(τ)(31)
where D1 and D2 are constants and
F(τ)=[τ-(l+1)/l(1/l)1/l(τ/l)-(l+1)/(2l)exp(-τ/(2l))],
l=(ζ2)/(Pr ω3)(ω4+R).
The first boundary condition θ(0)=0 gives D1=0 and the Newtonian heating condition θ'(1)=γ/ζ(1+θ(1))implies
D2=(n(1+3l+2l2))/(2l4W1F(1))-(n(1+3l+2l2))/(l4W2F(1))-
((1+3l+2l2))/(l4F(1)W3)-(n(1+3l+2l2))/(l4W3F(1))-
((1+3l+2l2))/(l4W2F(1))-(n(1+3l+2l2))/(l3W3F(1))-
(n(1+3l+2l2))/(l3W2F(1))-((1+3l+2l2))/(2l3W2F(1))+
(n(1+3l+2l2))/(5l3W1F(1))-((1+3l+2l2))/(2l3W3F(1))+
(n(1+3l+2l2))/(4l2W1F(1))-((1+3l+2l2))/(l2W2F(1))+
(n(1+3l+2l2))/(lW1F(1)),
where
W1=WhittakerM((3l+1)/(2l),(2l+1)/(2l), 1/l),
W2=WhittakerM((l+1)/(2l),(2l+1)/(2l), 1/l),
W3=WhittakerM(-(l-1)/(2l),(2l+1)/(2l), 1/l), n=γ/ζ.
The analytical solution can be easily obtained by substituting D1 and D2 into Eq.(31). Final solution of temperature in form of η can be obtained by replacing τ=exp(-ζη)in Eq.(31).
The effects of different parameters such as magnetic parameter M, porosity parameter P, Newtonian heating parameter γ, radiation parameter R, Cu nanoparticles volume fraction and Fe2O3 nanoparticles volume fraction on the velocity and temperature fields are sketched graphically in Fig.1 to Fig.7. The thermo-physical properties of Cu and Fe3O4 nanoparticles and water have been given in table 1.

It is found that in the absence of magnetic field, the velocity has its maximum value and it decreases when M increases for both Cu-water and Fe2O3-water based nanofluid. This behaviour is in accordance with the physical observation that the application of transverse magnetic field always results in a resistive type force also called Lorentz force. This type of resistive force tends to resist the fluid flow and thus reducing the fluid motion significantly. In Fig.3 to Fig.4, the impacts of porosity parameter P on Cu-water and Fe2O3-water based nanofluid velocities are shown at the fixed value of magnetic parameter M=2. It is known that permeability of a medium is related to the porosity. The permeability shows the ability of a porous material to allow fluids to pass through it. In consequence of porosity enhancement, permeability is amplified which leads to augmentation of fluid flow in supposed porous medium. Therefore, velocity field is increased due to porosity enhancement.
Fig. 5 shows the temperature field comparison between Cu-water and Fe2O3-water based nanofluids in the absence of thermal radiation(R=0)as well in the presence of thermal radiation(R≠0)under fixed magnetic field. It is found that the nanofluid containing Cu nanoparticles has higher heat transfer rate than Fe2O3-water based nanofluid. Since the thermal conductivity of Cu has the highest values compared to Fe2O3, its dispersion into water raises the thermal conductivity of water based nanofluid and thus the rate of heat transfer increases. Furthermore, with regards to the constant magnetic field and nanoparticles volume fraction, the increase of radiation parameter R leads to the increase of heat transfer.The change in temperature field with the variation in magnetic interaction parameter M is elucidated in Fig.6. The results of Cu-water and Fe2O3-water based nanofluids in the presence of magnetic field(M≠0)are compared with the corresponding results in case of purely hydrodynamic flow(M=0). A growth in temperature field is anticipated for growing magnetic field strength. The increasing magnetic field strength reduces fluid velocity due to that less hot fluid is carried away from the sheet. This in turn decreases wall temperature gradient, which implies a growth in thermal boundary layer thickness. From Fig. 7, it is found that as the Newtonian heating parameter γ increases, so does the thickness of the thermal boundary layer and as a result, the sheet temperature increases.
Nanofluid flow and heat transfer with magnetic(Fe2O3)and non-magnetic(Cu)nanoparticles are investigated by using the single-phase model. The magnetic field influences have been taken into account. The nanofluid shows great potential in enhancing the heat transfer process. One reason is that the suspended nanoparticles remarkably increase the heat transfer performance of the nanofluid. Furthermore, the results show that the heat transfer performance of Cu-water and Fe2O3-water nanofluids in the presence of thermal radiation is better than those in the absence of thermal radiation.
