Effects of Velocity and Thermal Slip Conditions with Radiation on Heat Transfer Flow of Ferrofluids ()
ABSTRACT
To analyze the thermal
convection of ferrofluid along a flat plate is the persistence of this study.
The two-dimensional laminar, steady, incompressible flow past a flat plate subject to convective surface boundary condition,
slip velocity in the presence of radiation has been studied where the magnetic
field is applied in the transverse direction to the plate. Two different kinds
of magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite Fe3O4 and cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4 are amalgamated within the base fluids water and kerosene. The effects of
various physical aspects such as magnetic field, volume fraction,
radiation and slip conditions on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are
presented graphically and discussed. The
effect of various dimensionless parameters on the skin friction coefficient and heat transfer rate are also tabulated. To investigate this particular problem, numerical computations are done
using the implicit finite difference method based Keller-Box Method.
