Abstract

In the last two decades, researchers have focused on the flow of nanofluids between parallel plates due to the growing energy demands and their applications, although much more research is still needed. Therefore, this comprehensive research examines the dynamics of an unsteady Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Couette flow of nanofluid through two endlessly parallel porous surfaces was investigated via mass and heat transmit taking into account Chemical Reaction, Heat Generation, and Thermal Radiation under constant pressure gradient. In this study, Water has been proposed as the foundation fluid for copper nanoparticles. The implicit finite difference approach was used to formulate and quantitatively solve the governing partial differential equations. The effects of physical characteristics are graphically presented for varies values during dimensionless speed and temperature profile are considered. The results show that, increase in nanoparticle volume fraction ∅ increase the amount of heat transfer to the nanofluid and hence its temperature increases. The study's findings are applicable to a number of thermal systems, engineering applications, and industrial procedures that use nanofluids for heating and cooling.
