In this paper, heat and mass transfer in the unsteady squeezing flow between parallel plates is analyzed using a perturbation-iteration algorithm. The similarity transformation is used to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, before being solved. The solutions of the velocity, temperature and concentration are derived and sketched to explai...

Unsteady flow of nanofluids squeezed between two parallel plates is discussed in the presence of viscous dissipation. Heat transfer phenomenon is disclosed via convective boundary conditions. Carbon nanotubes (single-wall and multi-wall) are used as nanoparticles which are homogeneously distributed in the base fluid (water). A system of non-linear differential equations for the flow is obtained...

Effect of nonlinear thermal radiation on the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic slip flow of Casson fluid between parallel disks in the presence of thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects are investigated numerically. A similarity transformation is employed to reduce the governing partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations. Further, Runge-Kutta and Newton’s methods are ado...

Hydromagnetic effects are analyzed on flow and heat transfer over a horizontal surface placed in an externally squeezed free stream. The unsteady governing momentum and energy equations are transformed to similarity equations for certain families of the controlling parameters. It is found that both local wall shear stress and local Nusselt number increase as squeezing free stream velocity incre...

New analytic solutions for unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows of a generalized second-grade fluid have been derived. The generalized second-grade fluid saturates the porous space. Fractional derivative is used in the governing equation. The analytical expressions for velocity and shear stress fields have been obtained by using Laplace transform technique for the fractional calculus. The o...
