APPROXIMATE ANALYTICAL STUDY OF UNSTEADY FLOW AND HEAT TRANSFER ANALYSIS OF CARBON NANOTUBES NANOFLUID OVER STRETCHING SHEET

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study approximate analytical unsteady flow and heat transfer analysis of CNTs nanofluid over stretching sheet for the improvement of heat assignment ratio. The present work has some important application in industry and engineering because the heat transfer ratio of nanofluid is larger compared to other fluid. With the help of defined similarity transformation, the nonlinear partial differential equations is converted to nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The model of nonlinear ordinary differential equations are then solved by Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method. The impact of different parameters are then interpreted using graphs in the form of velocity and temperature profiles. The influence of skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number is presented in the table form.
