Heat and mass transport nature of MHD nanofluid flow over a magnetized and convectively heated surface including Hall current, magneto and thermo diffusions impacts

The key interest in this paper to examine the heat and mass transport nature of Ti 6 Al 4 V–H 2 0 based nanofluid flow and its interaction with a strong magnetic field. In this study significances of Hall current, magneto and thermo diffusions on the flow behavior are included. The induced magnetic field (IMF) and its consequences on the flow-field are also examined. The non-dimensional flow model is solved analytically by use of perturbation method. In order to scrutinize the effects of relevant flow parameters to the flow nature, the numerical values of flow behaviors corresponds to these parameters are depicted, and graphically and tabuly presented. This kind of a study has significant applications in nano science to explore the heat and mass transport characteristic of electrically conducting nanofluids. An important result noted from this study that, on incrementing the volumetric concentration of nanoparticles in the fluid employing resistance force which cause to reduce the flow velocity and enhance the temperature. The mass diffusion factor grows the flow velocity while it reduces the IMF along the main flow. A key fact noted that Hall current generates IMF by modifying the existing magnetic field.
