  • Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects on magnetohydrodynamic hybrid nanofluid flow with radiation and activation energy
    D. Rajani, Akuri Sandhya, K. R. Kavitha, Sudhakaru Komera, Raghunath Kodi
    Radiation Effects and Defects in Solids, 2026
    In this study, we investigate the heat and mass transfer behavior of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) hybrid nanofluid flow over a stretching surface embedded in a porous medium, incorporating the combined effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis diffusion in the presence of activation energy and thermal radiation. Two different kinds of fluids, namely Al2O3/water/water and Cu/water/water, are selected for investigation. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations through similarity transformations and solved numerically using the shooting technique in MATLAB. The influence of key parameters such as the magnetic field, radiation, and chemical reaction rates on velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions is examined. Engineering performance measures including skin friction, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are evaluated.

  • Flow past a vertical porous surface under fluctuating thermal and mass diffusion with mhd effects
    C. Murthy, K. Kavitha, N. S. Kallepalli
    Journal of Mathematical and Computational Science, 2020
    This paper is examined with reference to critical parameters in the case of free MHD convection flow on a vertical porous surface under the fluctuating thermal and mass diffusion. An attempt has been made to understand the effects of the various critical parameters that appear in field equations and their effects over velocity field. It is noticed that, the prandtl number and velocity are inversely related. Moreover, it is observed that as the prandtl number increases, there is a decrease in the velocity and also back flow is observed. Even when the pore size of the bounding surface is decreased significant change in the velocity profiles is seen. Moreover, it is noticed that the prandtl number and temperature are directly proportional to each other.
  • MHD flow past an infinite inclined moving plate with radiation effects

  • A mathematical model for increasing incidence oftuberculosis in poverty driven confined areas and measures for control

    International Journal of Engineering and Advanced Technology, 2019
    Tuberculosis is observed to be most prevalent airborne infectious diseases killing hundreds and thousands of people every year. Mostly, the disease spreads in poverty driven poor countries and also to some extent in developing nations. The disease transmits in situations where infected persons are in close contact with others in confined spaces and also living in poor and unhygienic conditions. It is well recognized that overcrowding increases the risk of transmission. A detailed analysis is presented in this paper with respect to the various participating parameters. Interestingly, the results presented in this paper illustrate the occurrence and propagation of the disease as a mathematical model. The results are in agreement with the real life situations and the number of new infections is observed to be linear. It is seen that for fixed time (t), as the room volume (V) increases, the new infections(C) decreases gradually. In general it is seen that as the ventilation rate (N) increases, the new infections decreases quite rapidly. Further, it is observed that as time increases for a constant ventilation rate, an increase in the new infections is noted. Also, for a constant room volume as time increases, the number of new infections is found to be increasing. An interesting feature is that as the ventilation is progressive, a steep fall in the new infections is noted in the initial stages and subsequently, the drop is not that significant. The influence of time gradually seems to be diminishing as the ventilation rate increases. As the room volume increases, the new infections decrease at a faster rate. However, in each of these observations, it is seen that as ventilation rate increases, the number of new infections are found to be inversely proportional. Such a decrease is more predominant in the initial stages but decreases subsequently
