Electrical Unsteady MHD Natural Convection Flow of Nanofluid with Thermal Stratification and Heat Generation/Absorption

Analyzed the effects of thermal radiation, chemical reaction, heat generation/absorption, magnetic and electric fields on unsteady flow and heat transfer of nanofluid. The transport equations used passively controlled. A similarity solution is employed to transformed the governing equations from partial differential equations to a set of ordinary differential equations, and then solve using Keller box method. It was found that the temperature is a decreasing function with the thermal stratification due to the fact the density of the fluid in the lower vicinity is much higher compared to the upper region, whereas the thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and heat generation enhanced the nanofluid temperature and thermal layer thickness.
