Entropy analysis of flow and heat transfer caused by a moving plate with thermal radiation

This study examines the effects of thermal radiation on entropy generation in flow and heat transfer caused by a moving plate. The equations that govern the flow and heat transfer phenomenon are solved numerically. Velocity and temperature profiles are obtained for the parameters involved in the problem. The expressions for the entropy generation number and the Bejan number are obtained based on the profiles. Graphs for velocity, temperature, the entropy generation number, and the Bejan number are plotted and discussed qualitatively.
