Numerical simulation for thermal radiative flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluid due to Riga plate in the presence of joule heating

Abstract

In this paper, numerical simulation for the two-dimensional flow of tangent hyperbolic fluid in the manifestation of nanoparticles, heat source and joule heating is considered. For motivation of problem, the role of Riga plate is investigated. Chemical reaction and Brownian motion are the parts of the analysis. The set of PDEs of Tangent hyperbolic nanofluids with swimming germs is converted in to couple of ODEs by employing well-known approach namely shooting scheme. The resulting highly nonlinear and coupled ODEs are solved by using ND solve tool of Wolfram Mathematica 11. Numerical outcome of involving parameters of interest like Lewis number Le, Prandtl number Pr, Chemical diffusion k, Peclet number Pe, Weissenberg number We, Bioconvection Lewis number Lb, nonlinear radiation, Biot number Bi, modified Hartmann number Q and magnetic parameter M on tangent hyperbolic nanofluids velocity f″, temperature θ, concentration φ and density of germs distribution are discussed in the form of graphical trend and tables. We professed that the speed of fluid degenerated for the increasing value of power-law index n and magnetic parameter M. The Nusselt number growths for growing values of the thermophoresis parameter Nt, Biot number Bi and radiation parameter Nr.
