Abstract

Here nonlinear mixed convective entropy based nanofluid second order slip flow of magnetic and electric field is addressed. Both electric and magnetic field is considered for the problem formulation and the flow is generated by a stretched surface. Important slip factors, i.e., Brownian and thermophoresis diffusions are accounted. Total entropy rate subject to four types of irreversibilities (i) heat transfer (ii) chemical reaction (iii) fluid friction (iv) Joule or Ohmic heating is obtained through second law of thermodynamics. Thermal radiation, heat generation/absorption, dissipation, Brownian motion, Joule or Ohmic heating and thermophoresis effects are considered in the development of the energy equation. Activation energy to undergo the physical transportation or chemical transformation of atoms or molecules is further considered in the analysis of concentration. Firstly ordinary differential system is found, then numerically solved for flow field, entropy generation, concentration, temperature, skin friction, Nusselt number, Bejan number and Sherwood number through built-in-Shooting method.
