Description
Summary:This study presents a comprehensive numerical investigation into the Joule heating effect on ternary nanofluid flow and heat transfer over a permeable cylinder. The nanofluid consists of copper, alumina, and titania nanoparticles suspended in a water base fluid. Key physical parameters, including magnetic field strength and suction, are incorporated into the model to assess their effects on the flow and thermal performance. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations via similarity transformation and solved using the bvp4c solver. The results are validated against previously published studies, showing excellent agreement. The analysis reveals that Joule heating significantly impacts the temperature distribution within the boundary layer, increasing its thickness. However, its influence on the skin friction coefficient and overall flow behavior remains minimal. These findings provide valuable insights into optimizing heat transfer and fluid flow in systems that utilize ternary nanofluids, with potential applications in advanced cooling technologies and industrial heat management systems.
