Abstract

This article interprets the chemically reactive flow of water-based carbon nanotubes subject to rotating frame. Homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions are considered. Heat transfer is studied in presence of heat generation/absorption and viscous dissipation. Flow in porous space is investigated through nonlinear Darcy-Forchheimer expression. Carbon nanotubes of two types (namely single wall SWCNTs and multi wall MWCNTs) are utilized. Optimal solutions are obtained through optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM). Roles of sundry variables on flow fields, physical quantities and entropy generation rate are interpreted. It is witnessed that rate of entropy generation increases through homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction parameters.
