Integrated neural network based simulation of thermo solutal radiative double-diffusive convection of ternary hybrid nanofluid flow in an inclined annulus with thermophoretic particle deposition
Abstract
Numerical simulation of magnetohydrodynamic radiative double-diffusive convective heat and mass transfer of a ternary hybrid nanofluid with thermophoretic particle deposition in an inclined annulus is studied. Both sides of cylinders are preserved at uniform temperatures, while the remaining sides are thermally insulated. The coupled nonlinear partial differential equations are solved using a finite difference approach. The detailed computational results of heat and mass transfer rate, temperature, concentration and flow fields are presented and discussed for a distinct range of significant physical parameters. The results demonstrated that increasing the angle of the inclination factor increases fluid flow. In light of buoyancy, when the annular cavity is set downward, the enhanced shear velocity is transported upwards, where it reaches its optimal temperature. The higher temperature difference leads to augmented dynamic fluid motion, particularly in the radial direction, as the system seeks to balance the thermal energy through convective transfer. The Brownian motion parameter has abrupt mobility of nanoparticles in liquid, which promotes particle collisions with liquid molecules, yielding kinetic energy. Increased values of thermophoretic parameters augment the thermophoresis force. Thermophoretic particle deposition increases the concentration of nanoparticles in an annulus due to the migration of particles from hot to cold regions under the influence of temperature gradient. The heat and mass transfer characteristics of ternary hybrid nanofluid are forecasted through an artificial neural network-based Levenberg–Marquardt backpropagated algorithm. The built model shows the heat and mass transfer rate root mean squared values through the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm as one and mean squared error values as 1e-07 and 1e-08 respectively.
