Scrutinization of thermodynamic second law for the steady flow of couple stress nanofluid in an inclined microchannel by varying thermal conductivity
This study comprises the flow of Ti6Al4N nanoparticle alloy allowed to flow within the microchannel kept at a certain angle. Engine oil is the base fluid in which nanodimensional particles are immersed. The flow is caused by the influence of linear and exponential heat sources. The microchannel is a permeable media with the suction/injection at the microchannel extremes. During the flow, the impact of the microstructure of these particles is concerned, thus reporting the rotational interaction amidst the particles. The obtained nonlinear equations are solved using the effective numerical method, namely, finite difference code improved by using the Lobatto IIIA formula and the findings are discussed using the graphs. The results attained claim that linear and exponential space‐dependent heat source parameter has augmented the thermal profile. Also, consideration of the couple stress of the fluid is known to retard the flow.
