Description
Summary:Brownian motion and thermophoresis diffusions are the fundamental ideas of abnormal upgrading in thermal conductivity via binary fluids (base fluid along with nanoparticles). The influence of Brownian motion and thermophoresis are focused on in the Buongiorno model. In this problem, we considered the Buongiorno model with Brownian motion and thermophoretic effects. The nonlinear ordinary differential equations are recovered from the partial differential equations of the boundary flow via compatible similarity transformations and then employed to the Kellerbox scheme for numerical results. The physical quantities of our concern including skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number along with velocity, temperature and concentration profile against involved effects are demonstrated. The impacts of the involved flow parameters are drawn in graphs and tabulated forms. The inclination effect shows an inverse relation with the velocity field. Moreover, the velocity profile increases with the growth of the buoyancy effect
