Abstract

The process of heat and mass transfer due to the flow of nanofluid over open surfaces or inside closed geometries is when modelled into the mathematical framework give rise to the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations (PDE), including conservation of mass, momentum, energy, and concentration, along with the boundary conditions. The analytical solution of such problems is not possible in most of the cases. The alternative method is the numerical approach. There are number of numerical methods available in the literature which are extensively used in solving heat and mass transfer problems. Most commonly used numerical methods are Finite Volume Method, Finite Element Method, Lattice Boltzmann Method, etc. The challenges of numerical approach depend on the severity of nonlinearity of differential equations and the complexity of boundary conditions. The computational time and processing capacity are the parameters of interest. Hence, the study of such problems is crucial for the optimal results.
