Abstract

The main concern here is to study nanofluid flow past a continuous stretching sheet including electrification of nanoparticles along with Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis to show the impact on the enhancement of thermal conductivity and cooling process. The governing equations of the flow field are derived from revised Buongiorno’s model including the electrification of nanoparticles and the formulated equations are reduced to dimensionless local similarity equations using similarity variables. The locally similar equations are solved numerically by shooting approach using MATLAB built-in-package bvp4c. Electrification effect of nanoparticles on dimensionless velocity, normalised temperature, dimensionless nanoparticle concentration as well as the non-dimensional heat and mass transfer coefficients is investigated through table and graphs. It is found that the electrification of nanoparticles is a possible mechanism for heat transfer enhancement of base fluids.
