In this article, we have studied the flow and heat transfer in Sisko fluid with convective boundary condition over a nonisothermal stretching sheet. The flow is influenced by non-linearly stretching sheet in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field. The partial differential equations governing the problem have been reduced by similarity transformations into the ordinary differential ...

We consider a semi-infinite material that is initially assumed to be liquid at its melting temperature which, without loss of generality, we assume at 0 C. At time t 0  , a heat flux (characterized by the constant 0 q 0  ) is imposed at x 0  and then solidification ensues, where three distinct regions can be distinguished (for a complete description of this mushy model see [1]): H1) Liquid, ...

Here magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow of Jeffrey nanofluid by a nonlinear stretching surface is addressed. Heat generation/absorption and convective surface condition effects are considered. Novel features of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are present. A non-uniform applied magnetic field is employed. Boundary layer and small magnetic Reynolds number assumptions are employed in...

Convective motions in the deep layers of solar convection zone are affected by rotation, making convective heat transport latitude-dependent, but this is not case top near surface. We use thermal wind balance condition deeper to estimate pole–equator temperature difference. Surface observations difference can be used for estimating depth near-surface layer within which rotation. If we require t...

A new virtual baffle methodology is implemented to solve contact/detach problem which is often encountered in fluid and structure interaction simulations while using dynamic grids technique. The algorithm is based on tetrahedral unstructured grid, and a zero thickness baffle face is generated between actually contacted two objects. In computation process, this baffle face is divided into two pa...
