Abstract

Solar energy is a leading energy source to reduce greenhouse gas radiation and other types of air pollution. In particular, solar energy is widely used to generate electric power. The rheological behavior of various non-Newtonian liquids plays an active role in heat transferal processes. This study examines the heat conduction in water-based Jeffrey and Maxwell cylindrical film flows suspended with magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. The radiative heat, uneven heat sink/source, and magnetohydrodynamic effects are considered. A precise model is developed and determined mathematically. The influence of pertinent constraints on flow and thermic profiles is explored using pictorial and numerical outcomes. The drag force generated by magnetohydrodynamics effectively regulates the wall friction and heat transmission rate. The temperature profiles of Maxwell ferrofluid are more active than Jeffrey ferrofluid. The heat diffusion rate of Jeffrey ferrofluid is more progressive than the Maxwell ferroliquid.
