Nanomaterials have found wide applications in many fields, leading to significant interest in the scientific world, in particular automobile thermal control, heat reservoirs, freezers, hybrid control machines, paper creation, cooling organisms, etc. The aim of the present study is to investigate the MHD non-Newtonian nanofluid and time-based stability analysis to verify the stable branch by computing the smallest eigenvalue across a slendering, extending, or shrinking sheet with thermal radiation and chemical reactions. The basic flow equations have been obtained in terms of PDEs, which are then converted to ODEs in dimensionless form via a suitable transformation. Based on the MATLAB software package bvp4c, the numerical solution has been obtained for the system of equations. A comparative study of the present and published work is impressive. The influence of evolving factors such as Prandtl number, Schmidt number, magnetic factor, heat generation/absorption, thermal, thermophoresis factor, chemical factor, second-grade fluid factor, and Brownian number on the velocities, energy, and concentration patterns is discussed through graphs. It is perceived that the temperature distribution enriches owing to the greater magnitude of the heat source. Furthermore, it is observed that a greater magnitude of radiation improves the temperature curves. It is also investigated from the present analysis that concentration and temperature profiles increase due to the growing values of the thermophoresis factor.

This article investigates the convective thermal and solutal exchange from the active walls of a trapezium chamber which is filled with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-silicon dioxide (SiO)-ethylene glycol-water hybrid nano-coolant. The hybrid nano-coolant exhibits non-Newtonian shear-thinning rheology and is modeled by the power-law viscosity as per an exploratory report. The convection is generated by both the thermal and solutal buoyancy forces in the presence of a magnetic field.

The current research presents a mathematical model to study the flow of a non-Newtonian magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) Casson-Carreau nanofluid (CCNF) over a stretching porous surface, considering mass and heat transport rates with Stefan blowing, non-linear thermal radiation, heat source-sink, chemical reaction, thermophoretic and Brownian motions, convective heating, Joule heating, motile microorganisms, and bio-convection. The presence of microorganisms is utilized to control the suspension of nanomaterials within the nanofluid. The current flow model has been rendered by the boundary layer approximation and we get the highly nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs).

This work's objective is to investigate the laminar steady flow characteristics of non-Newtonian nano-fluids in a developed chaotic microdevice known as a two-layer crossing channels micromixer (TLCCM). The continuity equation, the 3D momentum equations, and the species transport equations have been solved numerically at low Reynolds numbers with the commercial CFD software Fluent. A procedure has been verified for non-Newtonian flow in studied geometry that is continuously heated.

We investigate energy generation from salinity gradients inside a nanopore that is connected to reservoirs at both ends. We consider that the inner wall surfaces are grafted with a densely grafted polyelectrolyte layer (PEL). We developed the PEL grafting density-dependent correlation of dielectric permittivity, molecular diffusivity, and dynamic viscosity in this endeavor.
