Title
Consequences of Soret-Dufour Effects, Thermal Radiation, and Binary Chemical Reaction on Darcy Forchheimer Flow of Nanofluids.
Abstract
This research article aims to investigate the consequences of binary chemical reaction, thermal radiation, and Soret-Dufour effects on a steady incompressible Darcy-Forchheimer flow of nanofluids. Stretching surface is assumed to drive the fluid along positive horizontal direction. Brownian motion, and the Thermophoresis are accounted in particular. The governing highly nonlinear system of problems which are advanced version of Navier-Stokes equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using appropriately adjusted transformations invoking symmetric property of the independent variables. The numerical approach using RK45 in connection with shooting technique is adopted to solve the final equations. Graphical approach is used to interpret the results and the values of important physical quantities are given in tabular data form. Velocity field, temperature distribution and concentration distribution are graphically analyzed for variation in respective fluid parameters. Furthermore, density graphs and stream lines are sketched for the present model. The outputs indicate a rise of temperature field in connection with thermal radiation parameter. A clear decline is noticed in velocity field for elevated values of Forchheimer number and porosity factor. The Dufour effect anticipates a rising factor for temperature distribution and the same is noticed for concentration distribution in lieu of Soret effect. Thermal radiation and binary chemical reaction has strong impact on heat transport mechanism. The results for physical quantities such as skin friction, heat and mass flux rates are given in tabular data form in last section of this study.
