| Summary: | This study analyzes the heat transfer of a thin film flow on an unsteady stretching sheet in nanofluids. Three different types
of nanoparticles are considered; copper Cu, alumina Al2
O3
and titania TiO2
with water as the base fluid. The governing
equations are simplified using similarity transformations. The resulting coupled nonlinear differential equations are solved
by the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM). The analytical series solutions are presented and the numerical results obtained
are tabulated. In particular, it shows that the heat transfer rate decreases when nanoparticles volume fraction increases. |
