Abstract:
The flow at a time-independent separable stagnation point on a Riga plate under thermal radiation and electro-magnetohydrodynamic settings is examined in this research. Two distinct base fluids-H2O and C2H6O2 and TiO2 nanostructures develop the nanocomposites. The flow problem incorporates the equations of motion and energy along with a unique model for viscosity and thermal conductivity. Similarity components are then used to reduce these model problem calculations. The Runge Kutta (RK-4) function yields the simulation result, which is displayed in graphical and tabular form. For both involved base fluid theories, the nanofluids flow and thermal profiles relating to the relevant aspects are computed and analyzed. According to the findings of this research, the C2H6O2 model heat exchange rate is significantly higher than the H2O model. As the volume percentage of nanoparticles rises, the velocity field degrades while the temperature distribution improves. Moreover, for greater acceleration parameters, TiO2/ C2H6O2has the highest thermal coefficient whereas TiO2/ H2O has the highest skin friction coefficient. The key observation is that C2H6O2 base nanofluid has a little higher performance than H2O nanofluid.
