Convective flow of Jeffrey nanofluid due to two stretchable rotating disks

Present analysis investigates the convective flow of Jeffrey nanofluid between two rotating stretchable disks. Effects of nanofluid flow are scrutinized with magnetohydrodynamics. Characteristics of heat transfer are examined in the presence of Joule heating. The relevant system is transformed to highly nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using suitable transformations. Graphical representation of convergent series solutions is obtained to analyze the results more efficiently. Influence of significantly involved parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration is tested. Radial velocity profile has parabolic behavior for certain considered parameters. Effects of some relevant parameters on heat transfer rate are also tabulated. It is noted that heat transfer rate at lower disk rises for increasing Reynolds number and ratio of relaxation to retardation times. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
