Magnetohydrodynamic and viscous dissipation effects on radiative heat transfer of non-newtonian fluid flow past a nonlinearly shrinking sheet: Reiner–Philippoff model
Heat transfer is an important process in many engineering, industrial, residential, and commercial buildings. Thus, this study aims to analyse the effect of MHD and viscous dissipation on radiative heat transfer of Reiner–Philippoff fluid flow over a nonlinearly shrinking sheet. By adopting appropri...

Summary: | Heat transfer is an important process in many engineering, industrial, residential, and commercial buildings. Thus, this study aims to analyse the effect of MHD and viscous dissipation on radiative heat transfer of Reiner–Philippoff fluid flow over a nonlinearly shrinking sheet. By adopting appropriate similarity transformations, the partial derivatives of multivariable differential equations are transformed into the similarity equations of a particular form. The resulting mathematical model is elucidated in MATLAB software using the bvp4c technique. To determine the impact of physical parameters supplied into the problem, the results are shown in the form of tables and graphs. The findings reveal that the heat transfer rate reduces as the Eckert number and radiation parameter are introduced in the operating fluid. However, increasing the magnetic parameter raises both the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number, which impulsively improves the heat transfer performance. The suction effect has a noticeable influence on the Reiner–Philippoff fluid, since increasing the suction parameter's value is seen to enhance the skin friction coefficient and the heat transfer performance. The dual solutions are established, leading to the stability analysis that supports the first solution's validity. |
