A study on the impact of solar radiations and activation energy effects in existence of nanofluid over stretching solar sheets

In this paper, we study the effects of activation energy and solar radiation on expanding solar sheets, as well as non-Newtonian nanofluid dynamics, which are important in these applications and are driving efforts to find solutions to the world’s energy problems. We provide numerical solutions to p...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper, we study the effects of activation energy and solar radiation on expanding solar sheets, as well as non-Newtonian nanofluid dynamics, which are important in these applications and are driving efforts to find solutions to the world’s energy problems. We provide numerical solutions to physical flow problems by solving partial differential equations. We utilise the MATLAB-integrated bvp4c methodology after applying similarities to turn these PDEs model into ODEs. By investigating dimensionless momentum, concentration, and thermal profiles under different conditions, our research delves into the physical relevance of nanofluids. Important flow field components have also been numerically and tabulatively studied and displayed graphically. The rates at which heat is transferred is 29.06% and 37.99%, respectively. The rate of heat transport rose by 13.93% as a result. At greater values for the Maxwell fluid parameter, the velocity profiles improved while the temperature profiles decreased. This paper contributes significant new information to the ongoing discussion in this area, which is in line with earlier findings.
