Abstract
The hydrothermal features of (Al2O3 + H2O) nanofluid motion through a porous enclosure are examined in the ambient magnetic field environment. The effects of nanoparticles shape and radiations are investigated over the Darcy nanofluid flow. The developed model equations are converted to non-dimensional form using certain appropriate transformation relations. The dynamics of the nanofluid Darcy motion is simulated by using the innovative simulation technique of CVFEM. The impacts of different shapes of nanoparticles, radiation, magnetic force strength, and buoyancy over the Darcy nanofluid migration are investigated by depicting contour and 3 dimensional plots. The analysis shows that convective thermal energy transportation enhances with augmenting buoyancy forces, radiation parameter and nanoparticles shape factor. The increasing magnetic force strength mitigates the convective thermal energy flow and enhances the nanofluid temperature. The results of the current investigation find its applications in improving the convective thermal transport characteristics of the existing ordinary fluids. The agreement of the present and published work validates the accuracy of CVFEM.
