| Summary: | This study explores the synergistic impact of zero flux and convective boundary conditions on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary-layer slip flow of nanofluid over a moving surface, utilizing Buongiorno’s model. In a landscape of expanding nanofluid applications, understanding boundary condition interactions is crucial. Employing a systematic approach, we varied key parameters, including surface velocity, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, Eckert number, Prandtl number, and Lewis number, systematically investigating their effects on flow and heat transfer. Numerical simulations focused on critical metrics such as skin friction coefficients; Nusselt and Sherwood numbers; and temperature, concentration, and velocity profiles. Noteworthy findings include the amplifying effect of a magnetic field and viscous dissipation on temperature profiles and the dual impact of heightened velocity slip on temperature and velocity profiles, which result in a thicker concentration boundary layer. Beyond academia, we envision our research having practical applications in optimizing high-temperature processes, bio-sensors, paints, pharmaceuticals, coatings, cosmetics, and space technology. |
