Abstract :
An attempt has been made to explore the eect of thermal radiation on
electrically conducting viscous, incompressible magnetonano
uids free convective
ow in
the presence of an inclined magnetic eld. Fluid
ow is persuaded due to accelerated
movement of an innite vertical ramped temperature plate. The water based nano
uids
with nanoparticles of alumina (Al2O3), copper (Cu), and titanium oxide (TiO2) have been
accounted for. In order to mathematically model the problem, the model of nanoparticle
volume fraction has been employed. The exact solution to the mathematical model in closed
form has been analytically obtained by making use of Laplace transform technique. The
amalgamated - form expressions are obtained for nano
uid velocity, nano
uid temperature,
skin friction, and Nusselt number in both ramped and isothermal conditions. The eects of
various physical parameters on the nano
uid velocity and nano
uid temperature have been
examined by means of various graphs while the numerical values of skin friction and Nusselt
number have been reported in dierent tables. The numerical results have been compared
for both ramped and isothermal conditions. It has been noticed that both nano
uid velocity
and nano
uid temperature are smaller in magnitude in the case of ramped temperature
plate than in the case of isothermal plate.
