ABSTRACT

The present study accentuates the Marangoni convection flow and heat transfer characteristics of a hybrid Cu-Al2O3/water nanofluid past a stretching/shrinking sheet. The presence of surface tension due to an imposed temperature gradient at the wall surface induces the thermal Marangoni convection. A suitable transformation is employed to convert the boundary layer flow and energy equations into a nonlinear set of ordinary (similarity) differential equations. The bvp4c solver in MATLAB software is utilized to solve the transformed system. The change in velocity and temperature, as well as the Nusselt number with the accretion of the dimensionless Marangoni, nanoparticles volume fraction and suction parameters, are discussed and manifested in the graph forms. The presence of two solutions for both stretching and shrinking flow cases are noticeable with the imposition of wall mass suction parameter. The adoption of stability analysis proves that the first solution is the real solution. Meanwhile, the heat transfer rate significantly augments with an upsurge of the Cu volume fraction (shrinking flow case) and Marangoni parameter (stretching flow case). Both Marangoni and Cu volume fraction parameters also can decelerate the boundary layer separation process.

 

Keywords: Dual solutions; hybrid nanofluid; Marangoni convection; stability analysis; suction

 

ABSTRAK

Kajian ini menonjolkan aliran perolakan Marangoni dan ciri-ciri pemindahan haba untuk nanobendalir hibrid Cu-Al2O3/air terhadap permukaan meregang/mengecut. Kehadiran ketegangan permukaan disebabkan oleh perbezaan suhu yang dikenakan pada permukaan dinding telah menghasilkan perolakan haba Marangoni. Satu transformasi bersesuaian digunakan untuk menukar persamaan aliran lapisan sempadan dan tenaga ke dalam persamaan pembezaan biasa bukan linear. Fungsi bvp4c dalam perisian Matlab telah digunakan untuk menyelesaikan sistem yang diubah. Perubahan dalam halaju dan suhu, serta nombor Nusselt dengan penambahan pemboleh ubah tanpa dimensi iaitu Marangoni, pecahan isi padu nanozarah dan sedutan, turut dibincangkan dan diwujudkan dalam bentuk graf. Kehadiran dua penyelesaian untuk kedua-dua kes aliran meregang dan mengecut dikenal pasti dengan penggunaan pemboleh ubah sedutan. Penggunaan analisis kestabilan telah mengesahkan yang penyelesaian pertama adalah penyelesaian sebenar. Pada masa yang sama, kadar pemindahan haba meningkat dengan banyak dengan penambahan pecahan isi padu Cu (kes aliran mengecut) dan pemboleh ubah Marangoni (kes aliran meregang). Kedua-dua pemboleh ubah Marangoni dan pecahan isi padu Cu juga dapat memperlahankan proses pemisahan aliran sempadan.

 

Kata kunci: Analisis kestabilan; nanobendalir hibrid; penyelesaian dwi; perolakan Marangoni; sedutan
