Abstract

In this paper, the study of squeezing flow of sodium alginate (SA) a non-Newtonian fluid whose rate of shear is not constant with viscosity flows through a medium transporting nanoparticles of silver (Ag) and Alumina (Al2O3). The flow medium is a flat parallel plate arranged vertically against each other under steady flow condition. As the flow process arising from the mechanics can be described by ordinary nonlinear differential equation, the Adomian decomposition method been an effective, yet simple method is adopted to analyze the non-linear differential equation. This is used to investigate effect of squeezing flow and heat transfer on the nanofluid. Analytical results reported graphically depicts the effect of squeezing flow on heat transfer utilizing silver nanoparticles shows decreasing temperature distribution for plates coming together while as plates moves apart temperature distribution decreases further. Similar trend is observed adopting the alumina nanoparticle. However the silver nanoparticle having better thermal properties compared with alumina demonstrates higher heat transfer rate due to effect of varying fluid kinematic viscosity on heat exchange. Results generated from the study when compared with existing literature are in good agreement. Therefore study proves a good emphasis for the improvement of sodium alginate transport in biomedical, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing and chemical processes amongst others.
