Second Law Analysis of MHD Forced Convective Nanoliquid Flow Through a Two-Dimensional Channel

Abstract The present study deals with fluid flow, heat transfer and entropy generation in a two-dimensional channel filled Cu–water nanoliquid containing hot block. flow is driven along the by constant velocity cold temperature at inlet, partially heated horizontal walls. aim of this work to influence most important parameters such as nanoparticle volume fraction (0%≤ϕ≤4%), diameter (5 nm≤dp≤55 nm), Reynolds number (50≤Re≤200), Hartmann (0≤Ha≤90), magnetic field inclination angle (0≤γ≤π) Brownian motion on hydrodynamic thermal characteristics generation. We used lattice Boltzmann method (LBM: SRT-BGK model) solve continuity, momentum energy equations. obtained results show that maximum value average Nusselt found for case (3) when block placed between two minimum calculated (2) insulated increase numbers enhances total In addition, reduces irreversibility, impact investigated,
