... transpiration and velocity slip conditions to the flow. The nanofluid, which is composed of Au, Ag and Cu nanoparticles dispersed in water as the base fluid, possesses critical properties for increasing the heat transfer rate and is frequently used in manufacturing and industrial establishments. Design...

... equations into a system of first-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The fourth-order Runge–Kutta method is chosen for its accuracy in solving ODEs. The present study investigates the free convective boundary layer flow of hybrid nanofluids over a moving thin inclined needle with the slip flow...

...Wenqiang Guo; Guoxiang Hou; Yin Guan; Senyun Liu Purpose This paper aims to explore the mechanism of the slip phenomenon at macro/micro scales, and analyze the effect of slip on fluid flow and heat transfer, to reduce drag and enhance heat transfer. Design/methodology/approach The improved...

... of slip is considered for the resemblance of the heart valve prosthesis. The numeral results have been obtained by using the Chebyshev pseudospectral method. Findings It is proven that vascular resistance decreases for increasing blood velocity. It is noted that when the magnetic field will be induced...

... consideration, namely, Ag, Cu, CuO, Al₂O₃ and TiO₂. Design/methodology/approach The physical flow is affected by the presence of velocity slip as well as temperature jump conditions. Findings The knowledge on the influences of nanoparticle volume fraction...

...S. Sivasankaran; H. Niranjan; M. Bhuvaneswari Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the Newtonian heating and slip effect on mixed convective flow near a stagnation point in a porous medium with thermal radiation in the presence of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), heat generation...

...Ibrahim Yakubu Seini; Daniel Oluwole Makinde Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the MHD boundary layer flow of viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid near a stagnation-point on a vertical surface with slip. Design/methodology/approach – In the study...

...R. Ellahi; M. Hameed Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of nonlinear partial slip on the walls for steady flow and heat transfer of an incompressible, thermodynamically compatible third grade fluid in a channel. The principal question the authors address in this paper...
