Abstract
- The current investigation scrutinized the incompressible steady flow with temperature-dependent viscosity of magnetohydrodynamics nanofluid through a vertically stretched porous sheet. The Reynolds exponential model is employed to formulate the mathematical modeling. The momentum equation is further devised utilizing the Darcy–Brinkman–Forchheimer model. Electrically conducting nanofluids encompass uniformly suspended nanoparticles in the viscous base fluid. The Buongiorno model is adopted that aspects the behavior of thermophoretic forces and Brownian motion. The momentum, mass conservative, energy, and nanoparticle concentration equations are defined with magnetic body force. The looming nonlinear coupled differential equations are resolved numerically by employing the spectral local linearization method (SLLM). The SLLM algorithm is straightforward to develop and apply, as it is based on a smooth univariant linearization of nonlinear functions. The numerical performance of SLLM is more impressive as it grows a set of equations; those are successively solved by operating the results from the one equation into the subsequent equation. To accelerate and improve the convergence for the SLLM scheme, the successive over relaxation scheme has been utilized. The accuracy of the SLLM will be confirmed through the known methods, and convergence analysis is also presented. Graphical conduct for all the emerging parameters across temperature, velocity, and concentration distributions, as well as the Nusselt number, skin friction, and Sherwood number, is presented and discussed in detail. A comparative study of the novel proposed technique along with the preceding explored literature is also granted. It is costly to affirm that the spectral local linearization scheme is uncovered to be much stable and adaptable to solve the nonlinear problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
