Abstract: There is no denying fact that nanoparticles of carbon nanotubes are employed to improve the performance of thermal stability in comparison with traditional nanoparticles, this is because nanoparticles of carbon nanotubes possess outstanding material properties. In this manuscript, a mathematical model of mixed convective flow based on carbon nanotubes suspended in ethylene glycol has been developed and derived by means of Fourier Sine transform. In order to analyze the thermophysical properties of nanofluid, the temperature and velocity profiles have been investigated through fractional derivative and integral transforms. The comparative analysis of single and multi-walled carbon nanotubes has been presented for the sake of enhancement of heat transfer. It is worth mentioning that embedded rheological parameters have shown the sensitivity for the enhancement of heat transfer with and without fractional techniques through graphical illustration.

Keywords: nanoparticles of carbon nanotubes; integral transforms; rate of heat transfer; high sensitivity of rheological parameters (search for similar items in EconPapers)
