Abstract

:
In this article, Cattaneo Christov heat transfer analysis in nanofluid (Ferro Fe3O4 and Aggregation) flow between two parallel rotating disks with different velocities determined. The relaxation time, velocity slip, heat convective boundary condition, and heat generation are also presented. The governing partial differential equation (PDEs) model is converted into a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) system by similarity variables. The solution is computed of the resulting ODEs system by using the Runge Kutta (Rk) method. Here a decline is noticed in the tangential velocity for nanoparticles (Fe3O4 and Aggregation nanoparticle) for higher values of the porosity parameter (λ1), slip parameter γ1, magnetic parameter (M) and Reynolds number ( R e r ), while tangential velocity arises for higher values of rotation parameters (ß1). This reduces the temperature field for nanoparticles by higher values of Eckert number (Ec), Prandtl number (Pr), Reynolds number ( R e r ), porosity parameter (λ1), while increases for arising the values of thermal relaxation parameter λ 2 , and for both Biot numbers ( B 1 , B 2 ) nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle). Further we compute the characteristics of physical quantities, namely skin friction and Nusselt number are presented.

1. Introduction

Nowadays, mathematicians and engineers have been motivated to study nanofluids because of their significant importance in modern age applications in science, engineering processes, and biomedical sciences. Nanofluid is a stable colloidal mixture of the base fluid (e.g., kerosene, blood, water, Nanoparticle aggregation oil, glycerin, ethylene glycol, etc.) and nanoparticle (Ag, Fe 3 O 4 , Cu, Au, Ag, SiO 2 , TiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 ) of diameter 1–100 nm. Many authors broadly exposed the assumption of nanofluids as a unique homogeneous phase that involves thermophysical properties of nanofluids model of their characteristics was explored by Khanafer et al. [1]. The magnetic force effects on heat transfer in ethylene-glycol nanofluid in a complex enclosure reported by Rostami et al. [2]. Waini et al. [3] explored the effects of thermal radiation in MHD flow of hybrid nanofluid by considering a permeable stretching wedge. Devi et al. [4] also investigated the MHD flow of Cu/Al 2 O 3 /water hybrid and nanofluids due to stretching surface with suction effects. Hossein The ferrofluid over a vertical plate by the considering of lamina- shaped nanoparticle was explored by Hosseinzadeh et al. [5]. Shoaib et al. [6] presented a 3-D MHD flow of hybrid nanofluids with heat transfer over a moving surface. Hassan et al. [7] presented the characteristic of hybrid-nanofluid Cu–Ag/water flow with convective heat transfer by using an inverted cone. The numerical solution for a stagnation point flow of hybrid nanofluid (CuO–Ag/water) was presented by Dinavand et al. [8]. The stability analysis for the stagnation point flow in heat transfer and hybrid nanofluid due to a shrinking sheet was computed by Anuar et al. [9]. The effects of metallic nanoparticles in MHD flow of micropolar fluid through a vertical artery with a six type-tenosis was presented by Ahmad et al. [10]. Yousafi et al. [11] found out the analytical solution effects of stagnation point on steady 3-D seddle/Nodle flow of hybrid nanofluid under the considering of a moving cylinder.
Rotating disc coating is a phenomenon that is uniform and the thin fluid film is formed via horizontal rotating disc. In the last few years, liquid film flow exploration has achieved a tremendous consideration of investigators for its useful applications in many manufacturing industries, science, medicine, and engineering. The liquid film flow has as well practical uses in fiber and cable undercoats. Besides, elastic layer drawing, fluidization of structures, and continuous shaping are also well-known applications of the liquid film. Initially, the concept of liquid film fluid over a rotating disc was reported by Emslie et al. [12]. Refinement of the governing equitation is analyzed by the equilibrium between the viscous and centrifugal forces. The MHD rotating flows of copper/silver water nanofluids over rotating disks in the existence of drag coefficient with thermal radiation effects were reported by Rout et al. [13]. Ahmad et al. [14] reported the Maxwell nanofluid flow between two stretchable rotating disks in the existence of variable thermal conductivity and axial magnetic field. They applied the Buongiorno nanofluid flow model and highlighted the characteristics of lower and upper disks in both the opposite and same directions. The Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model in flow between the two stretchable rotating disks with pours medium was reported by Hayat et al. [15]. Li et al. [16] explored a three-dimensional time-dependent bio-convection flow between two expanding or contracting rotating disks.
Many anthers studied the aggregation nanoparticle in nanofluids can be seen in Figure 1. The heat transfer analysis of nanofluid (aggregation nanoparticle and titaniam) flow in pip was reported by He et al. [17]. The Marangoni convection effects on aggregation nanoparticles of ethylene glycol-based titanium fluid were reported by Mackolil et al. [18]. The impacts of radioactive and aggregation nanoparticles of a nanofluid were studied by Chen et al. [19]. The aggregation nanoparticle effects in nanofliuid between two rotating disks was investigated by Wang et al. [20]. Wang also studied the characteristics of aggregation nanoparticles and magnetic field in over two rotating cones in Ref. [21].
The convective heat boundary condition is a very interesting topic due to its significant importance in heat transfer phenomena. For example, nuclear plants, gas turbines, thermal energy storage, etc. Referring to various industrial and mechanical processes, convective boundary conditions are more practical, including material drying, in-service cooling processes, etc. The convective boundary condition that affects generalized Hybrid nanofluid over horizontal pours stretching a sheet with thermal radiation effects was explored by Asim et al. [22]. The combined effects of a convective boundary condition and chemical reactive species on viscous fluid over a nonlinear curved stretching surface were demonstrated by Sajjad et al. [23]. Hayat et al. [24] explored the convective heat boundary condition in non-Newtonian fluid over a curved stretching sheet having homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions.
Different kinds of heat sources (such as temperature heat sources and space-dependent heat sources) frequently occur in many engineering applications. They increase the temperature profiles as they provide more energy to the system. The heat sources processes play a significant role in the heat transfer phenomena. Saleem et al. [25] demonstrated the effects of external thermal radiation on the nanofluid transport with a variable heat source. They show the result, the temperature profile via the enhancement of a heat source parameter, and a decrement in the concentration profile. The combined effects of thermal radiation and heat source on a three-dimensional generalized fluid with heat transfer rate was reported by Zia et al. [26]. Some recent works on the heat source effects on nanofluid flows can be seen in [27,28,29,30,31].
Inspired from the aforementioned literature review, we have explored the nanofluid (Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and aggregation) flow over coaxial rotating disks; however, the convective heat boundary condition has not been investigated yet. The governed PDEs model is transformed into ODEs system by similarity transformation. The solution of the transformed ODEs is computed by the shooting method. The impacts of different physical parameters of the velocity and temperature field have been presented through graphs. Further, we have also presented the effects of different physical parameters of the skin friction and local Nusselt number through the table. The main objectives of the present work are listed as:
  • The study of Cattaneo Christov heat flux model in nanofliuid between tow paralla disks.
  • The comprehensive study of the nanoliquid flow (with Aggregation and without Aggregation) nanoparticles.
  • The characteristics of slip and heat convective boundary conditions are considered.
  • The study of heat sources (temperature dependent source and space dependent source) are analyzed.
  • To compute the solution of the problem by using the shooting method.

2. Mathematical Formulation

The governing model is presented by assuming the electrically conducting heat flux model in nanofluid (Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation) flow between two rotating disks in the existence of a magnetic field. Here, pours medium presented between the rotating disks where k 0 represents the permeability constant. The lower disk is placed at ( z = 0 ) whereas the upper disk is placed at distance z = h and can be seen in Figure 2. We intend that a 1 and a 2 denote rotational velocities of the lower and upper disks, respectively and Ω 1 and Ω 2 their respective stretching rate constants. Here we utilize r , ϑ , z cylindrical coordinates and u , v , w are the velocity components. Now the governing model [15,18,32] constructed is as follows
w z + u r + u r = 0
w w z + u u r v 2 r 2 + u r 2 + 2 u r 2 + 1 r u r + 2 u z 2 μ n f ρ n f u κ o 1 ρ n f p r σ n f ρ n f B 2 u ,
w v z + u v r v u r = v r 2 + 2 v r 2 + 1 r v r + 2 v z 2 + μ n f ρ n f v κ o 1 ρ n f p r σ n f ρ n f B 2 v ,
w w z + u w r = 1 r w r + 2 w r 2 + 2 w z 2 + 2 w u 2 + μ n f ρ n f w κ o 1 ρ n f p z + v 2 r 2 ,
( ρ C p ) n f ( w T z + u T r ) = σ n f B o 2 ( u 2 + v 2 ) + . q ,
boundary conditions
u = r a 1 + K 1 u z , v = r Ω 1 + K 2 v z , w = 0 , k n f T z = l 1 ( T 1 T ) at z = 0 , u = r a 2 K 1 u z , v = r Ω 2 K 2 v z , w = 0 , k n f T z = l 2 ( T 2 T ) at z = h ,
in the aforementioned calculation p and T are taken for pressure and temperature, T 1 and T 2 represents the temperature at the lower and upper disc, respectively. Let K 1 , K 2 be the velocity slip parameter and q is taken for heat flux.
q + Υ ( q t + V . . q q . V + ( . V ) q ) = 0 ,
here k n f and Υ represent the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid and thermal relaxation. Now we simplify the Equations (5) and (7) it can be expressed as follows
w T z + u T r = ( 2 T z 2 + 1 r T r ) Υ [ u 2 2 T r 2 + 2 w u 2 T r z + w 2 2 T z 2 + w u z + u u r T r + w w z + u w r T z ] + σ n f B o 2 ( u 2 + v 2 ) .
Now we utilize the von-Kamran similarity transformations to transform the governing PDEs into nonlinear coupled ODEs
u = r Ω 1 f ( ξ ) , v = r Ω 1 g ( ξ ) , w = 2 h Ω 1 f ( ξ ) , θ = T T 2 T 1 T 2 , p = ρ n f Ω 1 ν n f ( p ξ + 0.5 ε r 2 h ) , ξ = z h .
The law conservation of mass identically satisfied, the Equations (1)–(9) and using Table 1 and Table 2 can be expressed as follows
f A 1 A 2 ζ + A 1 R e r A 2 M f A 5 f 2 f λ 1 + 2 f f + g 2 = 0 , 2 A 1 R e r A 2 M g A 5 + 1 2 λ 1 g + f g f g + g = 0 , P 2 R e r A 2 f B A 1 + 2 A 1 A 2 f 4 R e r A 2 f f = 0 , A 4 θ P r 4 A 3 λ 2 R e r f 2 θ + f θ f + 2 A 3 R e r f θ E c M A 5 R e r f 2 + g 2 = 0 ,
the boundary conditions
f ( 0 ) = 0 , f ( 0 ) = ß 1 + γ 1 f ( 0 ) , θ ( 0 ) + B 1 ( 1 θ ( 0 ) A 4 = 0 , g ( 0 ) = 1 + γ 2 g ( 0 ) , P ( 0 ) = 0 , f ( 1 ) = 0 , f ( 1 ) = ß 2 γ 1 f ( 1 ) , θ ( 1 ) + B 2 θ ( 1 ) A 4 = 0 , g ( 1 ) = ß 3 γ 2 g ( 1 ) .
The magnetic parameter, Prandtl number, porosity parameter, Eckert number, thermal relaxation, Velocity slip parameters are listed below M = B o 2 σ f o Ω 1 ρ f , ß 2 = Ω 2 Ω 1 , P r = μ C p k 1 , ß 3 = Ω 1 Ω 1 , λ 1 = k o Ω 1 r h o n f E c = r 2 Ω 1 C p ( T 1 T 2 ) , λ 1 = Ω 1 γ and γ 1 = K 1 h and γ 2 = K 2 h , ß 1 , ß 2 and ß3 be the rotation parameters, B 1 and B 2 is the Biot numbers.
The experimental analysis of the EG-based titanium was presented by Chen et al. [19]. The ϕ a represent the aggregate volume fraction over the largest volume fraction and it is given by ϕ a = ϕ r a r p D + 3 , where D = 1.8 , r a r p = 3.34 and η a = 2.5 represent the spherical aggregates and diffusion-limited aggregation, which are the experimental values of the EG-titanium nanoparticle seen in [19]. The thermal conductivity in the aggregation model of Maxwell fluid is expressed as
k a = 1 4 k f 3 ϕ in 1 k s k f + 3 ϕ in 1 k s k f + 3 1 ϕ in 1 2 + 8 k s k f 0.5 + 3 1 ϕ in 1
where ϕ i n = ( r a r p ) D + 3 . Differentiating Equation (10)
f + A 1 R e r A 2 M f A 5 f 2 f λ 1 + 2 f f + 2 g g = 0 ,
the pressure gradient ζ in Equation (10) is
ζ = A 1 R e r A 2 M f ( 0 ) A 5 + f ( 0 ) λ 1 + 2 f ( 0 ) f 2 ( 0 ) g ( 0 ) 2 + f + f ( 0 ) A 1 A 2 ,
now integrating the Equation (14) we have
P = 2 A 2 A 1 f + 2 R e r 2 A 2 A 1 0 ξ f d ξ + 2 A 2 A 1 f ( 0 ) 2 R e r f 2

3. Physical Quantities

3.1. Skin Friction

The skin friction coefficient at the lower ( C f 1 ) disc and upper C f 2 disc are formulated as
C f 1 = τ w | z = 0 ρ f ( r Ω 1 ) 2 , C f 2 = τ w | z = h ρ f ( r Ω 2 ) 2 ,
here τ w represents the total shear stress and it is formulated as
τ w = ( τ r z 2 + τ z θ 2 ) 1 2 ,
the shear stress τ r z and the tangential stress τ θ z are expressed as
τ r z = μ n f u z | z = 0 = μ f r Ω 1 f ( 0 ) h A 1 , τ θ z = μ n f u z | z = 0 = μ f r Ω 1 g ( 0 ) h A 1 ,
the total shear stress arrives at
C f 1 R e r = f ( 0 ) 2 + g ( 0 ) 2 ( 1 ϕ ) 2 . 5 , C f 2 R e r = f ( 1 ) 2 + g ( 1 ) 2 ( 1 ϕ ) 2 . 5 .

3.2. Nusselt Number

The Nusselt number ( N u x a and N u x b ) at the lower and upper discs are defined as
N u x 1 = h q w k f ( T 1 T 2 ) | z = 0 , N u x 2 = h q w k f ( T 1 T 2 ) | z = h ,
where q w stands for heat flux at the rotating disc, it can be formulated as
q w = k n f = T z | z = 0 = ( T 1 T 2 ) k n f θ ( 0 ) , q w = k n f = T z | z = h = ( T 1 T 2 ) k n f θ ( 1 ) .
the dimensionless form can be displayed as
N u x a = A 4 θ ( 0 ) , N u x b = A 4 θ ( 1 ) .

4. Shooting Method

A shooting method is a numerical approach, generally used for the solution of the BVP by reducing it to the system of an initial value problem. Further detail can be seen in the book (Ref. [33], Chapter 8). The Equations (10) and (13) are the system of non-linear coupled ODEs of order four in f ( ξ ) , order two in g ( ζ ) and order two in θ ( ξ ) , respectively. The rearranging of the Equations (10) and (13) with boundary conditions will take the form
f = A 1 R e r A 2 M f A 5 f 2 f λ 1 + 2 f f + 2 g g , g = 2 A 1 R e r A 2 M g A 5 + 1 2 λ 1 g + f g θ = P r R e r 4 A 3 λ 2 f θ f 2 A 3 f θ E c M A 5 f 2 + g 2 A 4 4 A 3 R e r f 2 .
To reduce the higher order nonlinear coupled ODEs into a first order ODEs system, let us consider
g = u 1 , g = u 2 , g = u 3 and u 3 = u 3 , θ = u 4 , θ = u 5 and θ = u 5 ,
the nonlinear coupled ODEs system is reduced into a first order ODEs system; it can be arranged in a new variable, which is given by:
u 1 = u 2 , u 2 = u 3 , u 3 = u 4 , u 4 = A 1 R e r A 2 M u 3 A 5 u 3 2 u 3 λ 1 + 2 u 1 u 4 + 2 u 5 u 6 , u 5 = u 6 , u 6 = 2 A 1 R e r u 1 u 6 A 2 M u 5 A 5 + 1 2 λ 1 u 5 u 2 u 5 , u 7 = u 8 , u 8 = P r R e r 4 A 3 λ 2 u 1 u 2 u 8 f 2 A 3 u 1 θ E c M A 5 u 2 2 + u 5 2 A 4 4 A 3 R e r u 1 2 ,
boundary conditions are
u 1 ( 0 ) = 0 , u 2 ( 0 ) = ß 1 + γ 1 u 3 ( 0 ) , B 1 ( 1 u 7 ( 0 ) ) A 4 + u 8 ( 0 ) = 0 , u 5 ( 0 ) = 1 + γ 2 u 6 ( 0 ) , u 2 ( 1 ) = ß 2 γ 1 u 3 ( 1 ) ) , u 7 ( 1 ) B 2 A 4 + u 8 ( 1 ) = 0 , u 1 ( 1 ) = 0 , u 5 ( 1 ) = ß 3 γ 2 u 6 .
To solve the above seven order ODEs system Equation (26) via a shooting method with RK-45. Seven initial guesses are required, whereas four initial guesses are given and the other three initial guesses u 2 ( ζ ) , u 5 ( ζ ) , and u 7 ( ζ ) is defined as ζ 1 . Hence, it is considered that ( u 2 ( 0 ) , u 5 ( 0 ) , u 7 ) = ( q 1 , q 2 , q 3 ) . These unknown three initial guesses ( u 2 ( 0 ) , u 5 , u 7 ( 0 ) ) are computed by a Newton iterative scheme. The main step of this numerical solution is to select the suitable finite values for boundary conditions. The step size and convergence criteria are taken as = 0.02 and T O L = 10 5 , respectively, for our numerical solution.

5. Validity of the Numerical Solution

In this section, we validate our numerical results with the previously published work. The comparison of f ( 0 ) and g ( 0 ) , shown in Table 3, reveals that we found a good agreement between these two methods. We have to evaluate the accuracy of the current method. For this, we computed the different values of ß 3 . We used a shooting method programming in MATLAB with step size h = 0.02 to obtain the velocities and temperatures profiles.

6. Results and Discussion

In this section, we have demonstrated the physical importance of involving various physical parameters on velocities (i.e., Axial f ( 0 ) , radial, g ( 0 ) and tangential velocity f ( 0 ) ) and temperature profiles and taking the values n = 1.0 , γ 1 = 0.4 , γ 2 = 0.4 ; B 1 = 0.5 , λ 1 = 0.5 , ß 3 = 0.8 , ß 2 = 0.4 , E c = 0.4 , Pr = 6.2 , R = 1.5 , M = 0.5 , ß 1 = 0.5 , λ 2 = 1.0 and B 2 = 0.4 . Further, we explored the characteristics of different physical parameters on local skin friction and Nusselt number via graph as well as table.

6.1. Radial and Axial Velocities

Impacts of rotating of lower disc ß 1 on axial and radial velocities is presented in Figure 3 and Figure 4 for both fluids (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on nanofluid. Reductions in the radial and axial velocities at the lower disc due to the rotation parameter of lower disc arises continuously, and another end of the axial and radial velocities arises for higher values of rotation parameter at the lower disc via the increasing values in ß 1 . The influence of the rotation parameter ß 2 on radial and axial velocities is demonstrated in Figure 5 and Figure 6 for both fluid (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on nanofluid. The decaying velocities at the lower disc are represented in ß 2 . A profile of arising velocities near the upper disc due to the rotation rate of the upper disc is greater.
Figure 7 and Figure 8 are for the plot the effects of the velocity slip parameter on axial and radial velocities. This reduces the radial velocity of the fluid near the lower and upper disc by higher values of slip parameter γ 1 . The variation of radial velocity rapidly reduces at two points of ξ 0.2 to 0.75. The axial velocity f ( ξ ) is reduced by greater values of γ 1 therefore, there is less transport of momentum in the radial direction. The characteristics of radial and axial velocities for Reynolds number R e r is depicted in Figure 9 and Figure 10 for both fluid (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on the nanofluid. The radial and axial velocities reduce at the lower disc for greater values of R e r . It is fact that the inertial forces have a direct relation with the Reynold number R e r . The velocity of the upper disc is greater than the lower disc. Due to this fact, there are negative values at the lower disk.

6.2. Tangential Velocity

Figure 11 represents the impacts of Reynolds number R e r on tangential velocity for both fluids (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on the nanofluid. Here it is found that the velocity g ( η ) arises by higher values of R e r for both fluid (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on the nanofluid. The magnitude of tangential velocity for higher values of ß 3 is shown in Figure 12. Here it is noticed that the tangential velocity by the higher values of ß 3 arises for both fluids (Aggregation and without aggregation) based on the nanofluid. The tangential velocity behavior is plotted in Figure 13 by different values of λ 1 . Decreases in the tangential velocity for both nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation) are based on the nanofluid by the larger values of λ 1 . It is concluded from this result, generally, that the porous medium allows the restive flow to arrise due to this fact of the fluid motion being reduced. The effects of the slip parameter on the velocities component demonstrated in Figure 14 for both fluid (Fe 3 O 4 -and Aggregation) based on the nanofluid. Here it can be concluded that reductions in the velocities components for higher values of slip γ 2 for both (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation) based on the nanofluid.

6.3. Temperature Profile

The temperature field highlighted for greater values of Prandtl number P r is illustrated in Figure 15. It is noticed that, according to the definition of Prandtl, the higher Prandtl number means the thermal diffusivity becomes smaller; therefore, reducing the temperature field for both (Aggregation and without Aggregation) based on the nanofluid. The importance of the Eckert number on the temperature field for both Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation based on the nanofluid is presented in Figure 16. Since the relation between kinetic energy and enthalpy of the given fluid is presented by the Eckert number. This means that heat is stored in the fluid due to the increasing Eckert number E c .
The reducing of the temperature field by higher values of relaxation time parameter for both (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation) based on the nanofluid is presented in Figure 17. It is noticed that thermal relaxation time arises for higher values of λ 2 . It implies the particles need more time than their neighboring particles, so, the temperature field is reduced.
The tendency of the fluid temperature is plotted in Figure 18 for greater values of R e r . It is seen from the figure, reductions in the fluid temperature by greater values of R e r for both Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation based on the nanofluid. Physically, the inertial forces arise for higher values of R e r . Therefore, the temperature profile is reduced. The magnitude of temperature for both fluid (Aggregation and without Aggregation) based on the nanofluid by higher values of B 1 and B 2 are shown in Figure 19 and Figure 20. It is found, the temperature field reduces for both fluid (Aggregation and without Aggregation) based on the nanofluid by improving values of B 1 and B 2 .
Figure 21 presents the impacts of ϕ on tangential velocity of the fluid for both nanofluid (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle). Here there are reductions in the tangential velocity profile by increasing the values ϕ . This is due to the enhancement of the volume fraction of nanoparticles. Figure 22 presents the impacts of ϕ on temperature of the fluid both nanofluid (Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle). Here, the temperature field increases by increasing the values ϕ . This is due to the enhancement of the volume fraction of nanoparticles.
The skin friction noticed enhance for higher values of R e r , ß 1 , ß 2 for both disks while it reduce for by higher λ 1 can be seen in Table 4. It can be observed from Table 5 that the transfer of heat is reduces by greater values of R e r , P r , B 1 and λ 2 at both disc.

7. Concluding Remarks

In this article, the heat transfer analysis led to a discovery for Ferro Fe 3 O 4 based nanofluids between two parallel rotating disks with pours medium. The aggregation nanoparticle, relaxation time, two kinds of heat sources (such as temperature and space-dependent heat source) are presented. The governing partial differential equation (PDEs) model is transformed into a nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) system by similarity transformation. The solution is computed for the transformed ODEs system by using a shooting scheme with the RK method. The velocity and temperature of the fluid are determined and presented. The physical quantities namely skin friction and Nusselt number are presented. The concluding remarks of this work are as follows
  • The radial and axial velocity of the fluid reduces by higher-values ß 1 and ß2 for Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle base fluid.
  • The radial and axial velocity of the fluid reduces by higher-values ß 1 and ß 2 for Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle) based nanofliuid.
  • A decline in the tangential velocity of nanofluid was noticed for magnetic parameter M, porous permeability parameter λ 1 and Reynolds number R e r . Declines in the temperature of fluid for both (Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle) with parameters P r , M , E c , β and R e r .
  • There are increases in temperature of the fluid by greater values of B 1 for Ferro Fe 3 O 4 and Aggregation nanoparticle base fluids.
