Abstract

The present work investigates the impacts of the Lorentz forces, porosity factor, viscous dissipation and radiation in thermo-Marangoni convective flow of a nanofluids (comprising two distinct kinds of carbon nanotubes ( )), in water ( ). Heat transportation developed by Marangoni forces happens regularly in microgravity situations, heat pipes, and in crystal growth. Therefore, Marangoni convection is considered in the flow model. A nonlinear system is constructed utilizing these assumptions which further converted to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by accurate similarity transformations. The homotopic scheme is utilized to compute the exact solution for the proposed system. The study reveals that higher estimations of Hartmann number and Marangoni parameter speed up the fluid velocity while the opposite behavior is noted for porosity factor. Further, the rate of heat transfer shows upward trend for the Hartmann number, Marangoni parameter, nanoparticle solid volume fraction, radiation parameter whereas a downward trend is followed by the Brinkman number and porosity factor. It is fascinating to take observation that contemporary analytical outcomes validate the superb convergence with previous investigation.

Keywords: Marangoni boundary layer flow, SWCNTs/MWCNTs, Lorentz forces, viscous dissipation, porosity effect.
