Heat and Mass Transfer Effects of Power-Law Fluid in an Inclined Tube

The present investigation deals with the analytical study of heat and mass transfer effects of a Power-law fluid in an inclined tube. By adding nanoparticles to the power-law fluid, heat and mass transfer effects have been studied. Axial velocity, axial pressure gradient and frictional force are expressed analytically and the effects of various parameters on these flow variables have been studied. The present model revealed that heat and mass transfer coefficients decreases in the region [-1,0] and increases in the region [0,1] with the increase of Brownian motion parameter and shows opposite behavior with the increase of thermophoresis parameter.
