Numerical Analysis of Heat Transfer of Eyring Powell Fluid Using Double Stratification of Magneto-..

Many engineering and industrial sectors, such as power generation, chemical processing, air conditioning, transportation, and microelectronics, depend on heat transfer fluids.

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of double stratification on magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow and heat transfer in an EyringPowell fluid using numerical simulations. Study Design: Eyring-Powell fluid is a non-Newtonian fluid with a variety of properties.

Different mathematical models have been developed to explain such fluids by substituting Navier-Stokes equations appropriately.

The difficult complexity of the resultant equations, as well as the essence of the resulting equations, pique the interest of many researchers.Between December 2019 and October 2020, students can study at Kenyatta University's Department of Mathematics and Actuarial Science in Nairobi, Kenya. Methodology: Appropriate similarity transformations are used to convert the nonlinear equations to linear differential equations. The resulting equations are numerically solved using matlab ode113 to simulate the predictor-corrector (P-C) form.

The effects of magnetic field, thermophoresis, thermal stratification, solutal stratification, material fluid parameters, and Grashoff number on fluid velocity, temperature, concentration, local Sherwood number, and local Nusselt number are graphically depicted and analysed. Results show that increasing magnetic field strength, thermophoresis, thermal stratification, and solutal stratification lowers fluid velocity, temperature, Sherwood number, Nusselt number, and skin friction, while increasing magnetic field strength, thermal stratification, solutal stratification, and thermophoresis raises fluid concentration.

Conclusion: The parameters studied in this study can be tweaked to improve the heat ejection of EyringPowell fluid, which can then be used as a coolant or heat transfer fluid in industries.
