MHD boundary layer flow and heat transfer of rotating dusty nanofluid over a stretching surface. (English) Zbl 1462.80007

Summary: The aim of this study was to analyze the momentum and heat transfer of a rotating nanofluid with conducting spherical dust particles. The fluid flows over a stretching surface under the influence of an external magnetic field. By applying similarity transformations, the governing partial differential equations were trans-formed into nonlinear coupled ordinary differential equations. These equations were solved with the built-in function bvp4c in MATLAB. Moreover, the effects of the rotation parameter \(\omega \), magnetic field parameter M, mass concentration of the dust particles \(\alpha \), and volume fraction of the nano particles \(\phi \), on the velocity and temperature profiles of the fluid and dust particles were considered. The results agree well with those in published papers. According to the result the hikes in the rotation parameter \(\omega\) decrease the local Nusselt number, and the increasing volume fraction of the nano particles \(\phi\) increases the local Nusselt number. Moreover the friction factor along the x and y axes increases with increasing volume fraction of the nano particles \(\phi \).
