| Abstract | ||||
| This article unveils the combined impact of heat generation/absorption and Joule heating on MHD flow of Ag-H2O nanofluid into a porous stretching/shrinking divergent/ convergent channel with viscous dissipation and solid volume fraction. The mathematical modeling is presented for the existing equations of continuity, momentum, and energy fraction. The reduced boundary value problem is solved numerically employing RungeKutta-Fehlberg (RKF) method via shooting scheme and then the outcomes are sketched and interpreted. The results explore that the thermal boundary layer thickness of the stretching divergent and the shrinking divergent channels enhance by increasing the value of the Eckert number, while the opposite tendency is scrutinized on the momentum boundary layer thickness by increasing the value of the porosity parameter for the stretching divergent and the shrinking convergent channels. | ||||
