Heat Transfer of Viscous MHD Nanofluid Flow in the Presence of Solar Radiation With Entropy

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To satisfy the power needs of human beings without affecting the environment, scientists have been working on the efficient practices of renewable energy sources such as solar, water, and wind. As a source of energy resources, solar radiation is preferred because of its unlimited availability and low ecological impact.

Roll convection of binary fluid mixtures in porous media

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate theoretically the nonlinear state of ideal straight rolls in the Rayleigh-B\'enard system of a fluid layer heated from below with a porous medium using a Galerkin method. Applying the Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation, binary mixtures with

Magneto‐Hydrothermal and Entropy Analysis of Double‐Diffusive Convection in a Nano‐Encapsulated PCM‐Suspended Elliptical Pipes Thermal Storage Tank: Impact of Exothermic Reaction

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 5882-5909, December 2025.
ABSTRACT PCMs store thermal energy during phase transitions without temperature changes, making them valuable for various thermal applications. When direct PCM use isn't practical, researchers have developed encapsulation methods as an alternative approach.

Synergistic Heat Transfer Enhancement in Triangular Enclosures: Hybrid Nanofluid‐Porous Wavy Fin Systems Under Magnetohydrodynamic and Radiation Effects

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 5924-5948, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study numerically investigates thermal transport and fluid dynamics in a triangular cavity filled with a MgO–Ag–H2O hybrid nanofluid containing an undulating porous fin under electromagnetic field and thermal radiation influences. The governing equations are solved numerically using the Galerkin finite element methodology with Darcy ...
