MHD flow and heat transfer of a power-law non-Newtonian nanofluid (Cu–H2O) over a vertical stretching sheet

详细

A steady-state mixed convection boundary layer flow of an electrically conducting nanofluid (Cu–H₂O) obeying a power-law model in the presence of an alternating magnetic field due to a stretching vertical heated sheet is investigated numerically through the use of Wolfram Mathematica. The surface stretching velocity and the surface temperature are assumed to vary as linear functions of the distance from the origin. A similarity solution is presented, which depends on the nanoparticle volume fraction, power-law parameter, magnetic field parameter, buoyancy convection parameter, and modified Prandtl number.
