Thermal analysis of radiative Sutterby nanofluid flow over stretching curved surface.

ABSTRACT

In this analysis, Sutterby fluid model over a curved surface is considered. The main mechanisms that contribute to the improvement of the convection characteristics of the nanofluid are categorized as Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The radiation and slip mechanism have been studied at curved stretchable surface. The suction/injection impacts also studied. The partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equations through transformations. The numerical solution of the specified mathematical model is obtained using the built-in bvp4c tool in MATLAB. The effects of various parameters related to the system of ordinary differential equations are illustrated in the graphs. The influence of some intended parameters through the physical quantities are presented through tabular form.
