Abstract

This study examines the behaviour of non-Newtonian nanofluids in fluid flow and heat transfer over a permeable surface with injection and suction. The governing equations are converted into ordinary differential equations using a similarity approach and solved numerically with the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. Copper (Cu), Copper Oxide (CuO), Titanium Oxide (TiO2), and Aluminum Oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles are used in sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC)/water as the base fluid to investigate the effects of power-law index, nanoparticle volume fraction, type, and permeability factor. The results indicate that Non-Newtonian nanofluids exhibit different behaviour than Newtonian nanofluids in the presence of suction and injection. Non-Newtonian nanofluid performs better than ewtonian nanofluid in terms of heat transfer for injection and an impermeable plate, but changing the type of nanoparticles has a larger effect on heat transmission during suction. Furthermore, the deployment of non-Newtonian nanofluids in injection processes leads to a decrease in heat transmission for all three scenarios. Additionally, the study indicates that higher injection rates result in improved heat transfer, while increased suction rates lead to reduced heat transmission.
