Dynamics pattern of a radioactive rGO-magnetite-water flowed by a vibrated Riga plate sensor with ramped temperature and concentration
Abstract
In recent times, the dynamics study of an electrically weak performing fluid stream regulated by Riga sensors has become an emerging research topic for scientists. Riga sensors’ utility for improving the effectiveness of heat and mass transport rates in industrial and engineering systems is diverse. This motivates us to inspect the stream pattern and heat-mass transmission mechanism of an electrically low-performing hybrid nanofluid (rGO-magnetite-water) near a vertically straightened Riga plate sensor embedding with absorbing materials under the guidance of thermal and concentration buoyancy and magnetization. The taken flow is being modelled by incorporating pertinent physical influences, namely radiation heat emission, chemical reaction, and ramped temperature and concentration at the boundary wall. The flow is presented mathematically in terms of unsteady partial differential equations. The compact-form expressions for model entities are founded by opting for the Laplace transform methodology. The Riga plate’s shear stress, heat and mass transfer rates are tabulated and graphed. The physical behaviours of substantial flow entities against model factors are conversed and judged graphically. The vital findings of this study demonstrate a swelling in the velocity distribution with an enhancement in modified Hartmann number and diminishing with an enlargement in the width of electrodes. The temperature and concentration are higher for constant plate temperature (CPT) and lower for ramped plate temperature (RPT). It is also motivating to note down that hybrid nanofluid containing reduced graphene nanomaterials will transmit extra heat in the flow regime. The heat flow across the Riga sensor elevates against the higher radiation parameter’s value. These novel findings will be extremely applicable in steam generators, chemical reactors, hybrid Riga plate electromagnetic devices, and phase transitions during material processing.
