Activation energy with exothermic/endothermic reaction and Coriolis force effects on magnetized nanomaterials flow through Darcy–Forchheimer porous space with variable features

Abstract

Nanomaterials have a remarkable role in contributing to industrial and medical applications like cooling of compressors, domestic refrigerators, brain tumors, and engines. Therefore, this report develops the theoretical investigation of magnetized nanomaterials Darcy–Forchheimer flow with zero mass flux. Rotation and stretching of disk cause the flow. Variable permeability and porosity are explored via Darcy–Forchheimer expansion. Activation energy with exothermic/endothermic reaction, Joule heating, exponential, and thermal heat source are additionally added to the energy equation. For the analysis of nanomaterials, Boungiorno model is considered. The modeled equations are altered to systems of ordinary differential equations by using Von Karman variables. ND-Solve scheme numerically approximated the converted system. Variation of physical quantities against distinct parameters is interpreted. It is noted that exothermic/endothermic reaction improves the temperature of nanomaterials.
