Galerkin finite element study for mixed convection (TiO2–SiO2/water) hybrid-nanofluidic flow in a triangular aperture heated beneath Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • AbstractFluidity and thermal transport across the triangular aperture with lower lateral inlet and apply placed at the vertical outlet of the chamber which filled with efficient TiO2–SiO2/water hybrid nanofluid under the parametrical influence. Several parameters are tested like the numbers of Hartmann ($$0 \le Ha \le 100$$ 0 ≤ H a ≤ 100 ), Richardson ($$0 \le Ri \le 5$$ 0 ≤ R i ≤ 5 ), and Reynolds ($$10 \le Re \le 1000$$ 10 ≤ R e ≤ 1000 ) were critiqued through streamlines, isotherms, and Nusselt number ($$Nu$$ Nu ). Numerical model has to be developed and solved through the Galerkin finite element method (GFEM) by discretized with 13,569 triangular elements optimized through grid-independent analysis. The Hartmann number ($$Ha$$ Ha ), exerts minimal impact over the flow and thermal aspects while the other parameters significantly manipulate the physical nature of the flowing and thermal aspects behaviors.
