In this analysis, an unsteady flow over a stretching plate with slip effect in CNT-water nanofluid has been examined. A set of ordinary differential equations have been obtained by applying the convenient similarity variables. Perturbation technique has been used to find numerical solutions of the study by applying Runge-Kutta fourth order scheme. Plots of velocity and temperature distributions for physical parameters such as velocity slip parameter, solid volume fraction, unsteadiness parameter and thermal slip parameter have been given via graphs, whereas numerical values of local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number have been presented in tabular form. Comparison with earlier published results specified that Runge-Kutta method of order four is applicable to solve this problem.

Abstract


In this analysis, an unsteady flow over a stretching plate with slip effect in CNT-water nanofluid has been examined. A set of ordinary differential equations have been obtained by applying the convenient similarity variables. Perturbation technique has been used to find numerical solutions of the study by applying Runge-Kutta fourth order scheme. Plots of velocity and temperature distributions for physical parameters such as velocity slip parameter, solid volume fraction, unsteadiness parameter and thermal slip parameter have been given via graphs, whereas numerical values of local skin friction coefficient and local Nusselt number have been presented in tabular form. Comparison with earlier published results specified that Runge-Kutta method of order four is applicable to solve this problem.
