Applications of Nanofluid for Heat Transfer Enhancement

3.5. Nanofluid flow and heat transfer between parallel plates considering Brownian motion using DTM

3.5.1. Problem definition

We consider the flow and heat transfer analysis in the unsteady two-dimensional squeezing flow of an incompressible nanofluid between the infinite parallel plates (Fig. 3.36). The two plates are placed at $z=\pm \ell {(1-\alpha t)}^{1/2}=\pm h(t)$ ($\ell$ is distant of plate at t = 0 and α is squeezed parameter). For α > 0, the two plates are squeezed until they touch t = 1/α and for α < 0, the two plates are separated. The viscous dissipation effect, ...
