Description

Aerospace research is increasingly focusing on propulsion system analysis. Heat transmission at high temperatures controlled by thermal radiation is used in spaceship propulsion systems. Hence, the current work investigates the magneto-Williamson nanofluid peristalsis flow in relation to thermal effect and slip-boundary circumstances with double-diffusion convection. In the flow's opposite direction, a steady, static magnetic field is applied. A mathematical model with appropriate boundary conditions is built by considering the momentum, continuity and energy equations. By considering the long wavelength and low Reynolds estimation, the resulting equations are further made simpler. Then a numerical solution to the resulting reduced partial differential equations is obtained. Finally, there is a visual representation of the non-Newtonian propelling flow parameters, which include the Brinkman number, Prandtl number, Hartmann number, radiation parameter, particle volume fraction, electric field and slip parameters. It is highlighted that enhancing the coefficient of thermophoresis strengthens the temperature contour because increasing the number of particles merged enhances thermophoretic power. Furthermore, because of the substantial migration of nanoparticles from a heated region to a cooled one, the distribution of concentration becomes less cumbersome. It is also revealed that the fraction of nanoparticles rises because of rising thermal radiation and Brownian motion because nanofluids have a significant temperature distribution that may affect the system's distribution.
