Mechanical analysis of non-Newtonian nanofluid past a thin needle with dipole effect and entropic characteristics.

ABSTRACT: The study concerns with the mechanical characteristics of heat and mass transfer flow of a second grade nanofluid as well as gyrotatic microorganism motion past a thin needle with dipole effect, entropy generation, thermal radiation, Arrhenius activation energy and binar chemical reaction. The governing equations and boundary conditions are simplified by the use of suitable similarity transformations. Homotopy analysis method is implemented to obtain the series solution of non-linear ordinary differential equations. Physical behaviors of heat and mass transfer flow with gyrotatic microorganisms and entropy generation are investigated through the embedded parameters. The nanofluid velocity is enhanced for higher values of the ferromagnetic parameter, local Grashof number, bioconvection Rayleigh number and radiation parameter. The Reynolds number, radiation parameter and Eckert number decrease the nanofluid temperature. The entropy generation is increased with the enhancement of radiation parameter, Eckert number, Lewis number, temperature difference parameter, dimensionless constant parameter, Curie temperature, Prandtl number and concentration difference parameter.

Chemically reactive nanofluid flow past a thin moving needle with viscous dissipation, magnetic effects and hall current.

Project description:This work addresses the ability to manage the distribution of heat transmission for fluid flow occurs upon a paraboloid thin shaped hot needle by using hybrid nanoparticles containing Copper Oxide (CuO) and Silver (Ag) with water as pure fluid. The needle is placed horizontally in nanofluid with an application of Hall current and viscous dissipation. The popular Buongiorno model has employed in the current investigation in order to explore the impact of Brownian and thermophoretic forces exerted by the fluid. The modeled equations with boundary conditions are transformed to non-dimensional form by incorporating a suitable group of similarity variables. This set of ordinary differential equations is then solved by employing homotopy analysis method (HAM). After detail study of the current work, it has established that the flow of fluid reduces with growth in magnetic effects and volume fractions of nanoparticles. Thermal characteristics increase with augmentation of Eckert number, magnetic field, volume fractions of nanoparticles, Brownian motion parameter and decline with increase in Prandtl number. Moreover, concentration of nanoparticles reduces with corresponding growth in Lewis number and thermophoresis, chemical reaction parameters while increases with growth in Brownian motion parameter.

Bio-convective and chemically reactive hybrid nanofluid flow upon a thin stirring needle with viscous dissipation.

Project description:In this work, the thermal analysis for bio-convective hybrid nanofluid flowing upon a thin horizontally moving needle is carried out. The chemical reaction and viscous dissipation has also considered for flow system in the presence of microorganism. The hybrid nanoparticles comprising of Copper [Formula: see text] and Alumina [Formula: see text] are considered for current flow problem. Mathematically the flow problem is formulated by employing the famous Buongiorno's model that will also investigate the consequences of thermophoretic forces and Brownian motion upon flow system. Group of similar variables is used to transform the model equations into dimensionless form and have then solved analytically by homotopy analysis method (HAM). It has established in this work that, flow of fluid declines due to increase in bioconvection Rayleigh number, buoyancy ratio and volume fractions of nanoparticles. Thermal flow grows due to rise in Eckert number, Brownian, thermophoresis parameters and volume fraction of nanoparticles. Concentration profiles increase due to growth in Brownian motion parameter and reduces due to increase in thermophoresis parameter and Lewis number. Motile microorganism profile declines due to augmentation in Peclet and bioconvection Lewis numbers. Moreover, the percentage enhancement in the drag force and rate of heat transfer using conventional nanofluid and hybrid nanofluid are observed and discussed. The hybrid nanofluid increases the skin friction and heat transfer rate more rapidly and efficiently as compared to other traditional fluids. A comparison of the present study with the existing literature is also conducted with a closed agreement between both results for variations in thickness of the needle.

Non-reciprocal and non-Newtonian mechanical metamaterials.

Project description:Non-Newtonian liquids are characterized by stress and velocity-dependent dynamical response. In elasticity, and in particular, in the field of phononics, reciprocity in the equations acts against obtaining a directional response for passive media. Active stimuli-responsive materials have been conceived to overcome it. Significantly, Milton and Willis have shown theoretically in 2007 that quasi-rigid bodies containing masses at resonance can display a very rich dynamical behavior, hence opening a route toward the design of non-reciprocal and non-Newtonian metamaterials. In this paper, we design a solid structure that displays unidirectional shock resistance, thus going beyond Newton's second law in analogy to non-Newtonian fluids. We design the mechanical metamaterial with finite element analysis and fabricate it using three-dimensional printing at the centimetric scale (with fused deposition modeling) and at the micrometric scale (with two-photon lithography). The non-Newtonian elastic response is measured via dynamical velocity-dependent experiments. Reversing the direction of the impact, we further highlight the intrinsic non-reciprocal response.

Unsteady Radiative Natural Convective MHD Nanofluid Flow Past a Porous Moving Vertical Plate with Heat Source/Sink.

Project description:In this research article, we investigated a comprehensive analysis of time-dependent free convection electrically and thermally conducted water-based nanofluid flow containing Copper and Titanium oxide (Cu and TiO 2 ) past a moving porous vertical plate. A uniform transverse magnetic field is imposed perpendicular to the flow direction. Thermal radiation and heat sink terms are included in the energy equation. The governing equations of this flow consist of partial differential equations along with some initial and boundary conditions. The solution method of these flow interpreting equations comprised of two parts. Firstly, principal equations of flow are symmetrically transformed to a set of nonlinear coupled dimensionless partial differential equations using convenient dimensionless parameters. Secondly, the Laplace transformation technique is applied to those non-dimensional equations to get the close form exact solutions. The control of momentum and heat profile with respect to different associated parameters is analyzed thoroughly with the help of graphs. Fluid accelerates with increasing Grashof number (Gr) and porosity parameter (K), while increasing values of heat sink parameter (Q) and Prandtl number (Pr) drop the thermal profile. Moreover, velocity and thermal profile comparison for Cu and TiO 2 -based nanofluids is graphed.

Effect of Nanoparticle Concentration on Physical and Heat-Transfer Properties and Evaporation Characteristics of Graphite/<i>n</i>-Decane Nanofluid Fuels.

Project description:n-Decane-based nanofluid fuels could be one of the most promising alternative fuels as aviation kerosene for aerospace application. However, the physical and heat-transfer properties of n-decane-based nanofuels have been rarely studied, and the influence of the concentration of nanoparticles on the evaporation characteristics of n-decane-based fuels has been sparsely investigated. This paper investigated physical and heat-transfer properties and evaporation characteristics of graphite/n-decane nanofluid fuels and emphasized the concentration effect of adding graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) on these characteristics. It was found that there are a linear increase of density and thermal conductivity, a binomial increase of viscosity, and a binomial influence on surface tension as GNP concentration increases, while the boiling point almost remains constant, and the latent heat of vaporization largely decays. There exists a critical GNP concentration of 1.75 wt % for the evaporation performance. At 0∼1.75 wt %, the increase of GNP concentration benefits the evaporation. At 1.75∼4.0 wt %, the enhancement of GNP concentration deteriorates the evaporation performance. A detailed discussion of this evaporation behavior was made, which could be attributed to multiple factors, for example, the aggregation of nanoplatelets, the changes of physical and heat-transfer properties owing to the nanoparticle concentration effect, the surfactant concentration, and the ambient temperature. The concentration of surfactants has a binomial effect, and the ambient temperature has a linear effect on the evaporation rate. This study would promote in depth understanding of physical and heat-transfer properties and evaporation characteristics of nanofluid fuels and develop the application in turbine engines and ramjet engines.

Moisture dipole over the Tibetan Plateau during the past five and a half centuries.

Project description:The South Asian Monsoon and mid-latitude Westerlies are two important controls on Tibetan Plateau (TP) fresh water resources. Understanding their interaction requires long-term information on spatial patterns in moisture variability on the TP. Here we develop a network of 23 moisture-sensitive tree-ring chronologies from major juniper forests in a north-south transect on the eastern TP. Over the past five and a half centuries, we find that these chronologies cluster into two groups, North and South, of ∼33° N. Southern and northern regional chronology subsets are positively and significantly correlated with May-June Palmer Drought Severity Indices (PDSI). The meridional moisture stress gradient reconstructed from these data suggests substantial stochastic variation, yet persistent moisture stress differences are observed between 1463-1502 CE and 1693-1734 CE. Identification of these patterns provides clues linking them with forced or intrinsic tropical-extratropical interactions and thus facilitates studies of interannual-decadal dipole variations in hydroclimate over the TP.

Role of Resultant Dipole Moment in Mechanical Dissociation of Biological Complexes.

Project description:Protein-peptide interactions play essential roles in many cellular processes and their structural characterization is the major focus of current experimental and theoretical research. Two decades ago, it was proposed to employ the steered molecular dynamics (SMD) to assess the strength of protein-peptide interactions. The idea behind using SMD simulations is that the mechanical stability can be used as a promising and an efficient alternative to computationally highly demanding estimation of binding affinity. However, mechanical stability defined as a peak in force-extension profile depends on the choice of the pulling direction. Here we propose an uncommon choice of the pulling direction along resultant dipole moment (RDM) vector, which has not been explored in SMD simulations so far. Using explicit solvent all-atom MD simulations, we apply SMD technique to probe mechanical resistance of ligand-receptor system pulled along two different vectors. A novel pulling direction-when ligand unbinds along the RDM vector-results in stronger forces compared to commonly used ligand unbinding along center of masses vector. Our observation that RDM is one of the factors influencing the mechanical stability of protein-peptide complex can be used to improve the ranking of binding affinities by using mechanical stability as an effective scoring function.

Heat and mass flux through a Reiner-Rivlin nanofluid flow past a spinning stretching disc: Cattaneo-Christov model.

Project description:The current work scrutinizes a non-Newtonian nanofluid free convective flow induced by a rotating stretchable disc. The examination surveys the Stefan blowing and Cattaneo-Christov mass and heat fluxes, as a precise illustrative model. The innovative aspects of the ongoing project include the analysis of the border sheet nanofluid flow near a revolving disc through thermophoresis, Reiner-Rivlin prototype features, and random nanoparticle motion. The Reiner-Rivlin non-Newtonian model is considered together with the effect of an unvarying axial magnetic strength. The constitutive formulae of a Reiner-Rivlin liquid have been reproduced in the cylindrical coordinates. Through implementing the applicable relationship transformations, the controlling partial differential equations are transferred to ordinary differential equations (ODE). This procedure yields a group of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations in relation to speed, heat, and nanoparticle concentration profiles that are impacted by several physical characteristics. These equations are analyzed by using the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). Due to the analytical solution given by HPM, the current work enables us to take the infinity of the layer as a parameter of the problem and discuss its variation in the obtained distributions. Consequently, a physical significant graphical visualization of the data is emphasized. The rates of mass and temperature transmission are examined to understand if any of the relevant parameters may improve these rates. Additionally, the Stefan blowing causes extra particles diffusion, which enhances heat transfer and raises the nanoparticles concentration and could be useful in some medical therapies. Furthermore, the stretching of the rotating disc is concluded, which improves the fluid heat transfer.

Entropic effect on the rate of dislocation nucleation.

Project description:Dislocation nucleation is essential to our understanding of plastic deformation, ductility, and mechanical strength of crystalline materials. Molecular dynamics simulation has played an important role in uncovering the fundamental mechanisms of dislocation nucleation, but its limited timescale remains a significant challenge for studying nucleation at experimentally relevant conditions. Here we show that dislocation nucleation rates can be accurately predicted over a wide range of conditions by determining the activation free energy from umbrella sampling. Our data reveal very large activation entropies, which contribute a multiplicative factor of many orders of magnitude to the nucleation rate. The activation entropy at constant strain is caused by thermal expansion, with negligible contribution from the vibrational entropy. The activation entropy at constant stress is significantly larger than that at constant strain, as a result of thermal softening. The large activation entropies are caused by anharmonic effects, showing the limitations of the harmonic approximation widely used for rate estimation in solids. Similar behaviors are expected to occur in other nucleation processes in solids.

Non-alignment stagnation-point flow of a nanofluid past a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet: Buongiorno's model.

Project description:The paper deals with a stagnation-point boundary layer flow towards a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet in a nanofluid where the flow and the sheet are not aligned. We used the Buongiorno model that is based on the Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis to describe the nanofluid in this problem. The main purpose of the present paper is to examine whether the non-alignment function has the effect on the problem considered when the fluid suction and injection are imposed. It is interesting to note that the non-alignment function can ruin the symmetry of the flows and prominent in the shrinking sheet. The fluid suction will reduce the impact of the non-alignment function of the stagnation flow and the stretching/shrinking sheet but at the same time increasing the velocity profiles and the shear stress at the surface. Furthermore, the effects of the pertinent parameters such as the Brownian motion, thermophoresis, Lewis number and the suction/injection on the flow and heat transfer characteristics are also taken into consideration. The numerical results are shown in the tables and the figures. It is worth mentioning that dual solutions are found to exist for the shrinking sheet.
