Numerical simulation for the slip impacts on the radiative nanofluid flow over a stretched surface with nonuniform heat generation and viscous dissipation

The growing fascination with nanofluid flow is motivated by its potential applications in a variety of industries. Therefore, the objective of this research article is to conduct a numerical simulation of the Darcy porous medium flow of Newtonian nanofluids over a vertically permeable stretched surface, considering magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection. Various attributes, such as the impacts of slip, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation, and nonuniform heat sources, are integrated to explore the behavior of the flow. The utilization of the boundary layer theory helps to describe the physical problem as a system of partial differential equations (PDEs). These derived PDEs are then converted to a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) through the application of suitable conversions. The outcomes are obtained using the finite difference method, and the effects of parameters on nanofluid flow are compared and visualized through both tabular and graphical representations. The outcomes have been computed and subjected to a comparative analysis with previously published research, revealing a remarkable degree of agreement and consistency. Consequently, these innovative discoveries in heat transfer could prove beneficial in addressing energy storage challenges within the contemporary technological landscape. The noteworthy main findings indicate that when the porous parameter, magnetic number, velocity slip parameter, viscosity parameter, and Brownian motion parameter are assigned higher values, there is an observable expansion in the temperature field. Due to these discoveries, we can enhance the management of temperature in diverse settings by effectively modulating the heat flow.
