THERMAL SCIENCE: Year 2018, Vol. 22, No. 1A, pp. 137-145 137 IMPACT OF MAGNETIC FIELD IN RADIATIVE FLOW OF CASSON NANOFLUID WITH HEAT AND MASS FLUXES by Tariq HUSSAIN a,*, Shafqat HUSSAIN a b,c, and Tasawar HAYAT a Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Computing, Capital University of Science and Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan b Department of Mathematics, Quaid-I-Azam University, Islamabad, Pakistan c NAAM Research Group, Faculty of Science, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia Original scientific paper https://doi.org/10.2298/tsci150712092h The purpose of present article is to examine the influences of heat and mass fluxes in the MHD flow of Casson nanofluid by an exponentially stretching sheet. Formulation and analysis is presented when thermal radiation and viscous dissipation are taken into account. Transformation technique is adopted for the reduction of partial different equations systems to ordinary differential equations systems. Both analytic and numerical solutions of dimensionless velocity, temperature, and nanoparticle concentration fields are developed. The impacts of sundry parameters on the velocity, temperature, and nanoparticle concentration profiles are plotted and discussed. The values of skin-friction coefficient are obtained numerically. It is found that an increase in the values of Casson parameter reduced the skin-friction coefficient while it enhances for larger Hartman number. Key words: magnetic field, nanoparticles, Casson fluid, viscous dissipation, heat mass fluxes Introduction There are several materials like yoghurt, ice, cosmetic products, plastic polymers, fossil fuels, blood at low shear rate, egg yolk, ice cream, etc. which differ from viscous liquids due to their diverse rheological characteristics [1]. Such fluids are known as the non-newtonian fluids and these have more importance in engineering and industry. The rheological properties of non-newtonian fluids have achieved the special attention of recent researchers. Navier-Stokes equations are not adequate to characterize the rheology of non-newtonian materials. Also only one constitutive relationship is inadequate to explore the properties of non- -Newtonian liquids. That is why various models of non-newtonian materials have been suggested. There is one amongst these known as the Casson fluid model [2-6]. Recently, thermal scientists have developed a new mechanism just to enhance the thermal conductivity of ordinary base fluids through addition of nanoparticles. Many heat transfer fluids like engine oil, ethylene glycol, and water have very limited heat transfer abilities due to their low thermal characteristics. The nanofluids are the homogeneous mixture of nanoparticles and base fluid. The nanofluids have pivotal role in transportation, nuclear reactors, electronic equipment, etc. Nanofluids may also be useful in biomedical applications like * Corresponding author, e-mail: zartotariq@yahoo.com

Choi [7] initially verified experimentally that the presence of nanoparticles dramatically enhanced the thermal conductivity of ordinary base liquids. Buongiorno [8] provided a model of nanofluid flow based on the Brownian motion and thermophoresis. Different investigations have later been made regarding nanofluid flows through diverse aspects and conditions [9-20]. The radiative heat transfer has superficial role in hypersonic fights, space vehicles, nuclear power plants, gas cooled nuclear reactors, gas turbines, etc. Turkyilmazoglu [21] investigated the impact of thermal radiation in the unsteady flow of viscous fluid with variable viscosity. Lin et al. [22] discussed the radiation effects on Marangoni convection non-newtonian nanofluid in the presence of variable thermal conductivity. Radiative heat transfer in viscous nanofluid flow over a stretched sheet with velocity slip and temperature jump has been analytically reported by Zheng et al. [23]. Buoyancy effect in MHD flow of nanofluid in the presence of the thermal radiation has been numerically examined by Rashidi et al. [24]. Shehzad et al. [25] provides the series solution of Jeffrey nanofluid flow subject to thermal radiation, Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects. The objective of present article is to investigate the impact of an applied magnetic field in 2-D boundary-layer flow of Casson nanofluid past an exponentially stretching sheet. The role of thermal radiation is taken into account. The Rosseland approximation for thermal radiation is employed. Effects of viscous dissipation are also present. We imposed the prescribed heat and nanoparticle concentration flux conditions which are more realistic than the constant surface temperature and nanoparticle concentration conditions. Both numerical and analytical solutions have been developed through implementation of shooting technique and homotopy analysis method (HAM) [26-30]. Impacts of physical parameters on the velocity, temperature, and nanoparticle concentration fields are plotted and examined carefully. The skin friction coefficient for different values of Hartman number and Casson parameter has been computed and analysed. Problems statement We consider the MHD laminar flow of Casson nanofluid induced by an exponentially stretching sheet. The nanofluid model with thermophoresis and Brownian motion effects is taken into consideration. A non-uniform magnetic field B(x) = B 0 exp(x/2l) is applied in the y-direction. Induced magnetic field for small magnetic Reynolds number is neglected. Thermal radiation and viscous dissipation are included in energy expression. We imposed the heat and mass flux conditions at the surface of the sheet. The resulting boundary-layer equations can be put into the following fashion: u v + = 0 (1) x y 2 2 u u 1 u σ Bx ( ) u + v = 1+ u 2 x y β y ρf 2 T T T C T DT T ν 1 u u + v = α + τ D 2 B + + 1+ x y y y y T y Cp β y 2 2 DT B 2 2 y y C C C T u + v = D + x y T 2 2 (2) (3) (4)

The radiative heat flux q r through Rosseland approximation can be expressed as q r = (4σ * /3χ)( T 4 / y). We assumed a small temperature differences within the fluid flow in such a manner that T 4 can be defined as a linear function of temperature. Expanding T 4 about T and retaining only the terms upto T T, we have T 4 = T 4 + 4T 4 (T T ) + 6T 2 (T T ) 2 + [21, 22] and now eq.

The presented analysis can be reduced to viscous fluid case when β. The skin friction coefficient is: 1 2RexCfx = 1 + f (0) β where Re x = u w (x)l/ν denotes the local Reynolds number. Discussion The problems subjected to velocity, temperature and nanoparticle concentration fields are computed by shooting technique and HAM for the numerical and approximate solutions, respectively. Thus figs. 1 and 2 are plotted to investigate the impacts of Hartman number, M, and Casson parameter, β, on the dimensionless velocity distribution f (η). Figure 2 shows the variations in velocity f (η) for different values of Hartman number when β = 0.2. It is noted that the velocity profile is enhanced for decreasing values of Hartman number. The velocity is lower when M = 2 and it starts to increase as the values of M become smaller. Obviously the Hartman number is through Lorentz force and this Lorentz force is weaker for smaller Hartman number and stronger for larger M. Here Lorentz force offers a resistance to fluid-flow and due to stronger Lorentz force, the velocity is decreased for larger Hartman number. The fluid velocity and momentum boundary-layer thickness are reduced for larger values of Casson parameter when M = 0.6 (fig. 2). (14) Figure 1. Impact of M on velocity field f (η) vs. η, when β = 0.2 Figure 2. Impact of β on velocity field f (η) vs. η, when M = 0.6 Figure 3 illustrates the variations in temperature field θ(η) for different values of Prandtl number. An increase in Prandtl number shows lower temperature and thinner thermal boundary-layer thickness. Prandtl number possesses thermal diffusivity. Thermal diffusivity has a major role in Prandtl number. Weaker thermal diffusivity appeared when we enhance the values of Prandtl number and such weaker thermal diffusivity is responsible for a reduc-

In fact Eckert number appeared here due to presence of viscous dissipation. The viscous dissipation term is absent when Ec = 0. Here it is studied that the temperature field and thermal boundary-layer thickness are higher for larger values of Eckert number. Clearly Eckert number depends on the kinetic energy and kinetic energy is enhanced when the values of Eckert number increase. Such increase in kinetic energy leads to thicker thermal boundary-layer thickness. Figures 5 and 6 explore the characteristics of Brownian motion parameter, Nb, and thermophoresis parameter, Nt, on the temperature profile. We observed that the larger values of Nb and Nt enhance the temperature and thermal boundary-layer thickness remarkably. Physically the Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters appeared due to presence of nanoparticles. The presence of nanoparticles gives rise to thermal conductivity of liquid. The thermal conductivity of liquid is higher when we use the larger values of Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters and this stronger thermal conductivity corresponds to higher temperature. It is examined from fig. 7 that the temperature is enhanced when we use larger values of thermal radiation parameter Rd. Thus more heat is absorbed by the fluid when thermal radiation is present due to which temperature enhances. Figure 8 depict that the temperature is lower for hydrodynamic flow (M = 0) when compared with hydromagnetic flow Figure 3.

142 THERMAL SCIENCE: Year 2018, Vol. 22, No. 1A, pp. 137-145 (M > 0). The Lorentz force is absent when we consider the hydrodynamic flow and sure it appears in the case of hydromagnetic flow. The Lorentz force resists the fluid-flow due to which more heat is produced in the liquid and higher temperature is observed. Figures 9-13 present the changes in nanoparticle concentration profile, ϕ(η), for different values of Prandtl number, Eckert number, thermophoresis and Brownian motion parameters, and Lewis number. Figure 9 reports that an increase in the values of Prandtl number creates a reduction in nanoparticle concentration and its associated boundary-layer thickness. The nanoparticle concentration is decreased firstly when we enhance the values of Eckert number but at η = 1.2 it starts to increase (fig. 10). The variations in nanoparticle concentration field for different values of thermophoresis parameter and Brownian motion parameter are studied in the figs. 11 and 12. Here we noticed that the higher values of thermophoresis parameter correspond to larger nanoparticle concentration while on the other hand it decreases when we enhance the values of Brownian motion parameter. Figure 13 illustrates the influence of Lewis number on nanoparticle concentration profile. The nanoparticle concentration field is decreased gradually for the increasing values of Lewis number.

THERMAL SCIENCE: Year 2018, Vol. 22, No. 1A, pp. 137-145 143 coefficient appeared in Lewis number and it is weaker for larger Lewis number. Due to such weaker Brownian diffusion coefficient, nanoparticle concentration field is lower. Table 1 shows the comparison between homotopic and numerical solutions for different values of Casson parameter and Hartman number. Table 1 witnesses that our numerical and homotopic solutions are in an excellent agreement. Table 1.

The main conclusions of this work can be summarized through the following points. The velocity field, f (η), is increased for larger values of Hartman number and Casson parameter. Here M = 0 leads to hydrodynamic flow while β corresponds to viscous fluid-flow. Temperature, θ (η), is enhanced for larger Eckert number. Here an increase in Eckert number corresponds to higher kinetic energy due to which larger temperature is noticed. An increase in the values of Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter leads to an enhancement in the temperature profile and thermal boundary-layer thickness. Figure 11.
