Exploration of nonlinear radiative heat energy on Buongiorno modeled nano liquid toward an inclined porous plate with heat source and variable chemical reaction

Abstract

Nanofluids are fluid suspensions of nanoparticles that exhibit a considerable improvement in their characteristics at low nanoparticle concentrations. Numerous research on nanofluids focuses on interpreting their behavior in order to use them in applications where improving straight heat transmission is crucial, such as in various industrial settings, nuclear reactors, transportation, biology, food, and electronics. Thus, this study examines the implementation of a novel numerical technique, namely the shooting method for nonlinear radiative heat energy study on Buongiorno modeled nano liquid confined by an inclined porous plate. The Brownian and thermophoresis diffusions impacts are also accounted. The transmission of thermal and solutal energy is regulated by the considerable influence of nonlinear thermal radiation, heat source, and variable chemical reactions. The dimensional modeled partial differential equations (PDEs), by using precise similarity functions, have been mutated into ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The outcomes for the flow field, thermal, and solutal outlines are captured graphically. The values of the dimensionless parameters are chosen from the literature in such a way that they have significantly affected the dimensionless boundary layer (BL) profiles. Also, the non-dimensional profiles of velocity, temperature, and concentration observe two different trends (increasing and decreasing) for diverse values of the dimensionless parameters.
