Coupled Dufour and Soret Effects on Hybrid Nanofluid Flow through Gyrating Channel Subject to Chemically Reactive Arrhenius Activation Energy
Author(s): Arshad Khan*, Taza Gul and Ishtiaq Ali
This study explores the magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow through two rotating plates subject to the impact
of microorganisms. The nanoparticles of copper and alumina are mixed with water for formulating hybrid
nanofluid with new combination (Cu+Al2O3+H2O). This new combination augments the thermal conductivity
of pure fluid. The flow is influenced by the coupled effects of Dufour and Soret diffusion. The joined effects
of chemically reactive activation energy have also been incorporated in the mass transportation equation. A
constant magnetic field has been employed to the flow field with strength B0 in normal direction to the plates.
The equations that controlled fluid flow have been transferred to dimension-free form by implementing suitable
set of variables. The influence of the different factors has been examined theor.. View More»
