A design of soft computing intelligent networks for MHD Carreau nanofluid model with thermal radiation

The objective of this work is to explore the flow features and thermal radiation properties of the 2-D Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Carreau nanofluid model over an impenetrable stretching surface by utilizing the supervised learning strength of Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation neural networking technique (LMBNNT). The mathematical formulation for MHD Carreau nanofluid flow model (MHDCNFM) in terms of partial differential equations (PDEs) is transformed into equivalent nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) by utilizing the similarity transformation and dimensional parameters. A reference dataset of proposed LMBNNT is made for Carreau nanofluid flow model exploiting the strength of Lobatto IIIA technique through the variations of different parameters against the velocity, temperature profile and concentration. These reference datasets are placed for validation, training and testing by LMBNNT and obtained outcomes are compared with reference results to check the accuracy of the designed methodology. The validation of the proposed solution methodology is obtained through the mean square error (MSE), error histogram error profile, regression p lot and fitness plot. MSE values' accuracy is upto 10-10 which establish the reliability of the LMBNNT. Moreover, due to an increase in Weissenberg number, fluid velocity decays in case of shear thinning liquid and higher values of Biot number enhance the temperature profile and improves the rate of heat transfer. Moreover, the increment in Hartman number reduces the surface drag force and large values of Prandtl number reduce the heat transfer process. These results of all these parameters are expressed in well-organized numerical and graphical forms.
