Abstract:
This investigation aims to explore the temperature-dependent variable characteristics of viscosity, and thermal conductivity with modified Fourier law in a nanofluid flow over a rotating disk. The uniqueness of the envisioned mathematical model is improved with the additional impacts of the chemical reaction, non-uniform source/sink, and convective boundaries. The salient feature of the existing problem is to discuss the whole scenario with liquid and gas thermo-physical characteristics. The graphical depiction is attained for arising pertinent parameter is attained by using Bvp4c a built-in MATLAB function. The visco-thermal conduct of the gases and liquids is examined by observing the mean flow and thermal distributions for the convectively heated disk. It is followed that liquid behaves more viscous with an increase in temperature in of the gas, but an opposing tendency can be seen for the liquid. The attained results are verified when compared with a published result.
