Significance of hafnium nanoparticles in hydromagnetic non-Newtonian fluid-particle suspension model through divergent channel with uniform heat source: thermal analysis

This theoretical analysis provided the exact solution of a steady flow of Casson rheological fluid in fluid-particle suspension models through a divergent channel with consideration of porous medium, electric, and magnetic fields, and slip boundary conditions. The thermal transport analysis is also observed with the consideration of viscous dissipation and uniform heat source. The suitable transformation is used to reduce the partial differential equation into ordinary differential equations and obtain the exact solution by adopting the mathematical software MATHEMATICA 12.0. The momentum and thermal profiles are decreasing functions of the magnetic field parameter. The number of streamlines is increased and covers more parts of the channel for increasing the Darcy force and velocity slip parameters. The computational results of this study will help to understand the momentum and thermal analysis in the fluid-particle suspension model. The results of the current study are useful to increase the oil recovery system, in thermal transport energy, energy production, cooling and heating systems, etc. The current model can be useful in renewable energy to store thermal energy by using the hafnium nanoparticles. The present analysis is original and has not been submitted nor published before.
