Entropy generation analysis of oscillatory magnetized darcian flow of mixed thermal convection and mass transfer with joule heat over radiative sheet

Abstract

Significance of this work is to examine enhanced thermal efficiency of magnetic nanofluid in the presence of Joule heating and radiation in missile technological devices, nuclear energy plants, rockets, solar energy systems and enhancing cyclic processes. Prominent aim of current investigation is to demonstrate the amplitude and oscillating analysis of mixed convective heat rate of Darcian magnetic nanoparticle movements with entropy generation, thermal radiation and Joule heat impact through porous stretching sheet. The magnetic layer along stretching surface plays important role to control thermal performance. Governing mathematical equations are reduced in convenient form by using non-dimensional analysis. The primitive mathematical form of steady and oscillating model is calculated through oscillatory stokes and primitive variables. Using Gaussian elimination and finite differences techniques, the geometrical and numerical outcomes of steady and oscillatory models are obtained by applying FORTRAN lahey-95 programming tool. The novelty of this problem is to study the oscillatory thermal and concentration profiles of Darcian magnetic nanoparticles with Joule heating and radiations. It is examined that momentum and temperature distribution grows as radiant-energy increases but decreases for maximum Joule heating. It is found that temperature and concentration distributions enhances as magnetic force decreases. Prominent enhancing amplitudes in heat and mass transfer are obtained for maximum Schmidt and thermophoresis parameter. Heat and mass transfer decreases as magnetic factor increases due to insulating magnetic nanoparticles.
