Solar energy aspects of gyrotactic mixed bioconvection flow of nanofluid past a vertical thin moving needle influenced by variable Prandtl number

Ying-Qing Song et al.

Summary: The study focuses on nanofluid flow over a vertical thin needle with gyrotactic microorganisms, considering the presence of a magnetic field in the incompressible electrically conductive liquid. The model includes the effects of thermophoresis and Brownian motion. The results show that increasing magnetic and buoyancy ratio parameters lead to a reduction in velocity gradient, while higher Biot number and radiation parameter enhance heat transfer. The density of motile microorganisms increases with Lewis number and decreases with Peclet number.

Plasma Hsp90 levels in patients with systemic sclerosis and relation to lung and skin involvement: a cross-sectional and longitudinal study

Hana Storkanova et al.

Summary: According to the study, plasma levels of Hsp90 are increased in patients with systemic sclerosis compared to healthy controls, and are associated with increased inflammatory activity, worsened lung function, and extent of skin involvement in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis. In patients with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease treated with cyclophosphamide, baseline Hsp90 levels can predict changes in DLCO over 12 months of therapy.

Inspection of convective heat transfer and KKL correlation for simulation of nanofluid flow over a curved stretching sheet

R. Naveen Kumar et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the flow of nanofluid over a curved stretching sheet, discussing heat and mass transfer, activation energy, and the use of CuO with waterbased nanofluid in the model. By utilizing the Koo-Kleinstreuer-Li (KKL) model, the viscosity and effective thermal conductivity of the fluid suspended by nanoparticles are examined.

Physical impact of thermo-diffusion and diffusion-thermo on Marangoni convective flow of hybrid nanofluid (MnZiFe2O4-NiZnFe2O4-H2O) with nonlinear heat source/sink and radiative heat flux

Ying-Qing Song et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influences of various factors on heat, concentration, and entropy generation in magnetohydrodynamics flow of nanofluids, using numerical analysis. Results indicate a significant impact of thermal gradient on heat transfer, with an increase in Brinkman number and Marangoni ratio leading to higher entropy production. Additionally, an escalation in Marangoni ratio and Dufour number enhances heat transfer rate.
