1 Introduction

Mechanically fluid flow generated by rotating disc has attained prodigious attention of scientists and engineers in the recent past due to its superb applications in geophysics,aeronautical science,crystal growth process,thermal power generating system etc.Significant geophysical applications of rotating disk incorporate the subject of earth’s revolution in its orbit and magma movement.Other essential mechanical applications of rotating disk involve air purifying devices,centrifugal filtration process,biological devices,food manufacturing,rotating machinery,aero spaced field and in electrified power generated surroundings.Von Karman[1]coined the idea of rotating disc discussing fluid flow induced by it.Lately,numerical investigation on combined features of thermal and concentration transfer flow of viscid fluid by way of Darcy rotating disc was executed by Turkyilmozoglu and Senel.[2]Inspection of non-Newtonian liquid induced by rotated disc in permeable media was discussed by Guram and Anwar.[3]Rashidi et al.[4]addressed the entropy generated in viscous flow over rotated disk.Turkyilmozoglu[5]discoursed the flow generated by rotated disk in the attendance of nanostructures.Mustafa et al.[6]investigated dynamics of nanoliquid due to stretchable disk.Sheikholeslami et al.[7]studied viscous nanoliquid flow due to inclining rotated disk geometry.

At present there is remarkable requirement of electronic devices in numerous industrial progressions.But recession in thermal conductivity of these equipments has abridged their valuable acknowledgement.Such confined products can be well-ordered by mounting new heat transfer liquids in laboratories.These engineered liquids can be prepared by accruing small solid size subdivisions into base fluids in order to aggrandize the thermophysical capability of host fluids.Researchers have concluded that with the inclusion of these small size particles the issues related to low thermal conductivity of fluids in thermal frameworks has been reduced.In view of these characteristics and promising utility nano-fluids are capitalized in thermal engineering,heat exchangers,chemical progression,cancer psychoanalysis and biomedicine etc.Enriched heat transferal proficiency can be engaged to many conspicuous solicitations comprising chilling of microelectronics such as microchips in computer processors,space refrigerating,improving the adeptness of hybrid powered engines,transformers oil cooling,and numerous others.Choi[8]shared the idea of nanofluids imparts as material for enrichment of thermal conductance.This characteristic of nanofluids has led it to diverse mechanical and biomedical uses such as in frosted engine,reducing agent for drag in refrigeration,chillers,oil engine transferal,heating and cooling of buildings,in exhaustion of boiler,fueled gas recovery,lubrication,reducing temperature in electronics,microwaved tubes,highly-powered lasers,drillers,transformer cooling oil,nuclear systems cooling and solar hydral heating.An extensive investigation of convectional transmission in this fluid was completed by Buongiorno.[9]Chen et al.[10]suggested a methodology to calculate the thermal conductivity of fluid comprising of nano-sized structures constructed on their rheological features.An extensive analysis of boundary layered flow over an exponential stretchable surface comprising of nanostructures was executed by Nadeem et al.[11]Significance of nanofluid in increasing the heavy-duty engine and automotive cooling rates was elucidated by Peyghambarzadeh et al.[12]

The imposition or interaction of magnetic field with dynamical flows is renowned as magnetohydrodynamics and such fluids are called magnetized fluids.The fundamental concept of appliance of magnetic field is to instigate magnetic currents in movable conducting liquids,which consequently generates a resistive force on the fluid.So The analysis of fluid flows with the interaction of magnetic field has engrossed substantive focus of investigators.Such considerations is due to its utilization in various mechanical,industrial and technological processes i.e.enhanced oil recovery,magnetohydrodynamic generators,electronic packages,pumps,thermal insulators,flow meters,power generation,etc.Furthermore,the appliance of magnetic field molds the orientation of interacting fluid molecules and also controls the intensity of flow phenomenon.Due to above mentioned importance researchers are considering fluid flows in various orientations under the effect of applied magnetic field.Few recent works in this direction is described as follows.Alfven[13]was the first who described the class of MHD waves also known as Alfven waves.In fluid dynamics,magnetic flow of non-Newtonian liquids was initially examined by Sarpkaya[14]and then this work was further prolonged by many investigators.Liao[15]acquired HAM solution for non-Newtonian flow regime by way of linearly stretchable geometry under the account of magnetic field.He suggested that magnetic parameter amplifies the frictional drag coefficient.MHD stagnant flow incorporated with chemical reactive species immerse in Darcy stretchable configuration was deliberated by Mabood et al.[16]Malik et al.[17]configured the physical impact of MHD on hyperbolic tangent liquid over a stretchable cylindrical configuration.Akbar et al.[18]computationally analyzed Powel-Eyring liquid under the inspiration of magnetic field over a stretchable surface.Hayat et al.[19]addressed the analysis on magnetohydrodynamic flow of fluid on a rotating disk with slip effects.Gireesha[20]contemplated electrically conducting three dimensional Casson fluid under the impact of non-linear radiation and double diffusion aspect.They attained the computational solution of the problem by obliging Runge-Kutta method.Magnetohydrodynamic Falkner-Skan flow of a Casson nanofluid in the presence of non-linear thermal radiation and variable thermo-physical properties are investigated by Archana et al.[21]Gireesha[22]depicted analysis to scrutinize the laminar,boundary layer stagnation point flow of a nanofluid over a permeable,vertical stretching sheet by capitalizing the effects of Brownian motion with thermophoresis in the presence of uniform magnetic field,non-uniform source/sink and chemical reaction.Kumar et al.[23]adumbrated the thermo physical features of Prandtl fluid over a Riga plate in the presence of magnetic field and chemically reactive species.Archana et al.[24]interrogated the features imparted in three dimensional Maxwell fluid by non-linear radiative flux and magnetic field.

Aforesaid extensive depictions witnesses that so far very lessliterature regarding the feature soffluid prompted by rotating rigid disk in the attendance of velocity slip,magnetic field,generative/absorptive heat and chemical reactive species are not taken into account.The generally accepted fundamental are utilized to obtain the ultimate mathematical equations.For solution purpose,a numerical method is implemented by improving it to Cash and Carp procedure.Regarding structure of the manuscript is concerned,Sec.1 is all about literature survey while Sec.2 is made to of fer mathematical treatment subject to viscous nanofluid flow due to rotating disk.The numerical scheme for present fluid flow problem is given in Sec.3.The attained interpretations are shared in Sec.4 while the corresponding graphs are given in Sec.5.The key outcomes are abridged in Sec.6.

2 Mathematical Formulation

Let us assume 2-dimensional,laminar,magneto hydrodynamic boundary layered flow of an incompressible viscous nanoliquid yields by rotational disk with slip condition.The disk at z=0 rotates with angular velocity vz.Velocity component along radial r-direction is vr,vθis the velocity component along tangential θ-direction and vzis velocity component along axial z-direction.An unvarying magnetic strength B0is employed in the z-direction.Flow situation is taken with chemical reactive species and generative/absorptive heat effects.The physical structure of fl ow regime via rotating disk is elucidated in accompanied Fig.1.

Fig.1 (Color online)Schematic diagram of rotating disk.

In the current situation the governing boundary layer equations take the following forms

The corresponding boundary conditions are

where ν = μ/ρfis the kinematic viscosity, μ is the dynamic viscosity,σ is the electrical conductivity of the fluid,p denotes the pressure,ρ is the density,ρfis the density of the base fluid,(ρc)pis the effective heat capacity of nanoparticles, α =k/(ρc)fis the thermal diffusivity,(ρc)fis the heat capacity,is the temperature,is the concentration,DBis the Brownian diffusion coefficient,DTis the thermophoretic diffusion coefficient,A1is the velocity slip constant,A2is the temperature jump,is the surface temperature,is the ambient temperature,is the surface concentration,is the ambient concentration,Q0is the thermal generation coefficient,and K is the rate of chemical reactive species.

Now the subsequent dimensionless variables are as under:

Now Eq.(1)is fully identicalized and Eqs.(2)–(8)take the accompanied forms

the associate boundary conditions are given as:

Here β is the magnetic field parameter, λ is the velocity slip parameter,λ1thermal slip parameter,Pr is the Prandtl number,Nb is the Brownian motion parameter,Nt is the thermophoresis parameter,H is the heat generation/absorption parameter,δcis the chemical reaction parameter and Sc is the Schmidth number.These variables are described as follows:

The shear stress rate coefficient,local convectional transmission coefficient and local massive flux magnitude are defined as:

in which Rer=(?r)r/2ν.

3 Numerical Scheme

As the consequential partial differential expressions of this problem are transformed into ordinary differential equation after applying suitable transformation.But these governing ordinary differential equations(Eqs.(11),(12),and(13))are highly nonlinear and hard to control their analytical solutions.Keeping in mind the end goal to unravel this system with associated boundary conditions we must solve it i.e.Eq.(14)by numerically.There are many numerical methods which can solve this problem but we solve this problem by shooting technique with RKF-method.For further accuracy of computed results an improvement is made by adding the coefficient of RKF method by Cash and Carp method.Hence first governing boundary value expressions are transmuted into initial value problem,thus governing equations are re-written as

To find the numerical solution of these equations by Runge-Kutta scheme,first these equations should be transmuted into system of seven linearized ordered equations with seven unknowns,by letting

under new variables defined in Eq.(21),are given

The associated boundary conditions from Eq.(14)in new forms are defined in Eq.(22),take the form

To compute the first order differential equations presented in Eq.(23)–(29)seven initial restrictions must be identifiable,but the initial conditions at s3,s5,and s7are not mentioned.Though,the boundary conditions s2(η),s4(η),and s6(η)are recommended at η → ∞ Thus,these boundary restrictions are used to capitalize three missed initial restrictions.Now,letting the missing initial conditions by ω1,ω2,ω3,and ω4,it converts the given boundary conditions into initial conditions,new conditions are deif ned as:

Initially,the values of ω1, ω2, ω3,and ω4are chosen?1,?1,?1,and ?1 respectively.Now solve this system of seven first order ordinary differential equation with initial conditions,the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method is used.The Runge-Kutta 4thand 5thorder formulas derived by Fehlberg are

where subscript 5 and 4 denote 5thand 4thorder formula.Also K1,Ki,F and Z are defined as:

where

In Eq.(45),determination of step size h is very important.If we take h to large,the truncation error may be unacceptable,if h is too small,then iterative process is long enough.So initially we take the value of h is 0.1 and this modified is each step.The coefficients in Runge-Kutta Fehlberg formula are defined as shown is Table 1.

Table 1 Numerical values of the coefficient given by Cash and Carp.

Equations(23)–(29)are solved with the 5thorder formula.The 4thorder formula is used only to estimate the truncation error,defined as:

The computed values of s2(∞),s4(∞),s6(∞),and s8(∞)are function of ω1,ω2,ω3,and ω4i.e.

The correct values of ω1,ω2,ω3,and ω4give the boundary conditions at η∞that satisfy the relation:

where E(ω1),E(ω2),E(ω3),and E(ω4)represent the difference between the computed and given boundary values called residuals.If boundary residuals are less than error tolerance i.e.10?6then it is final solution.On the other hand Eq.(29)can be solved for ω1, ω2, ω3,and ω4by using Newton method to refined value of ω1,ω2,ω3,and ω4.This procedure is continue until,it satisfies the convergence criteria.

4 Results Proclamation

This section is enchanted to sketch the complete interpretation of sundry variables on flow,temperature and nano particle concentration profiles.To get thorough intellect about the present analysis Runge-Kutta method is implemented and to produce highly accurate results the coefficients of RK-method is improved by Cash and Carp scheme.Figures 2 and 3 are adorned to check out the behavior of velocity slip parameter λ on f′(η)and g(η)in the presence and absence of magnetic field β.Firstly,Fig.2 is plotted to analyze the behavior of momentum slip parameter λ on radial velocity component for magnetic and non-magnetic cases.From the displayed sketch it is manifested that velocity field curves show diminishing magnitude with respect to incrementing values of momentum slip parameter λ in the presence of magnetic field β =0 and in absence of magnetic field β =0.The reason behind this delineating aspect is that the radial velocity is persuaded by the rotational force.It is observed that the radial velocity diminishes thus the location of the maximum velocity shifts towards the rotated wall as momentum slip parameter λ upsurges.It is also witnessed from these curves that without magnetic field momentum profile exhibits a significant increase as compared to the curves attained for magnetic field consideration.This is because the magnetic field is resistive force in nature that is why flow profile increases in absence of magnetic field and decreases in the presence of magnetic field.The attribute of tangential velocity curves for various values of momentum slip parameter λ is plotted in Fig.3.This sketch examines decreased manner in g(η)for mounting values of slip parameter λ.Physically,when momentum slip aspects λ come into action the partial part of the fluid moves towards the non-azimuthal direction as an outcome g(η)shows decrementing manner.Furthermore it also evident from this graph that magnetic field has same qualitatively effect on tangential velocity as λ does on radial velocity,i.e.strong Lorentz force opposed the fluid motion.

Fig.2 Effect of momentum slip parameter and magnetic parameter on f′(η).

Figures 4 and 5 are drawn to evaluate the graphical aspects of thermophoretic parameter Nt on thermal distribution θ(η)under the influence of heat generation/absorption parameter.It is obvious from Figs.4 and 5 that the thermal field of fluid flow mounts by intensifying the magnitude of heat generation in comparison to the variation in heat absorption coefficient.The fact is revealed due to the reason that by uplifting the magnitude of heat generation coefficient the thermal energy of the system raises and hence temperature of fluid flow enriches.Figures 4 and 5 assess the physical significance of thermophores is parameter Nt on fluid temperature.

Fig.4 Effect of thermophoresis parameter and heat generation parameter on θ(η).

Fig.5 Effect of thermophoresis and heat absorption parameter on θ(η).

Figure 4 is depicted to analyze the behavior of temperature curve against the inciting values of Nt in the presence and absence of heat generation parameterIt is seen from these curves that the thermophoresis parameter Nt is responsible for the increase of temperature and also corresponding boundary layer thickness.The reason behind that,thermophoresis is a force,which pushes the nano particle from higher temperature region to lower temperature region.Therefore higher values of thermophores is parameter Nt correspond to the strong thermophoretic force due to which movement of particle from hotter to colder region increases significantly.As a result fluid temperature enhances for positive values of thermophoresis parameter.Furthermore it is also divulged from the profile that temperature of fluid flow rises for heat generationparameter as compared to the absence of heat generation parameter.In Fig.5 the behavior of thermal distribution with respect to thermophoresis parameter and heat absorption parameteris interpreted.Similar behavior against Nt is observed in temperature is observed.But in Fig.5 thermal distribution enriches in the absence of heat absorption parameteras compared to the presence of.

Fig.6 Effect of Brownian motion parameter and chemical reaction parameter on ?(η).

Profiles of non-dimensional concentration profiles are plotted in Figs.6 and 7 for altering magnitude of Brownian motion parameter and Schmidth number in the absence/attendance of chemical reaction.From these curves in Fig.6 it is depicted that nanoparticle concentration and respective solutal boundary layer thickness shows an consequence trend against positive values of Nb.It is seen that higher values of Nb drops the nanoparticle concentration because increment in Nb is responsible for random motion of nanoparticle as a consequence concentration boundary layer thickness decreases which results decrease in concentration profile.While Fig.7 displays the impact of Schmidth number on nano particle concentration profile.One can see that Schmidth number decline the volumetric fraction of nanoparticle massively.Mathematically Schmidth number is the ratio of thermal to mass diffusion,therefore inciting values of Schmidth number moderates mass diffusivity and hence concentration of nanoparticles.As for the physical significance of constructive chemical reaction on nanoparticle concentration profile is identically same in both figures.Both of these figures display the concentration pro file across the fl ow domain and it is evident that existence of constructive chemical reaction increases the concentration profile resulting thicker concentration boundary layer.Trends with the aid of numerical data disclosed in Tables 2 and 3 with respect to magnetic parameter β,momentum slip parameter λ,thermophoresis parameter Nt,Schmidth number Sc and Prandtl number Pr on Nusselt number()?1/2Nu are elucidated.From the attained data it is found that by intensifying the magnitude of magnetic parameter β,Schmidth number Sc and Prandtl number Pr there is uplift in values of heat transfer coefficient whereas diminishing attribute is observed against up surging values of momentum slip parameter λ,thermophoresis parameter Nt and Brownian motion parameter Nb.The mounting behavior of Nusselt number()?1/2Nu with respect to β,Sc,and Pr can be justified by the fact that all of these parameters produces resistive force in the flow field.So this productivity of resistance among fluid molecules raises the temperature of the fluid flow and hence the coefficient of convective heat transfer enriches.Furthermore these results are compared with the previous literature published by Hayat et al.[19]It is found from the comparison that results are total covenant to each other.Numerical variation in()?1/2Sh is disclosed in Tables 2 and 3 with respect to magnetic parameter β,momentum slip parameter λ,thermophoresis parameter Nt,Schmidth number Sc and Prandtl number Pr is manipulated.From the calculated values it is found that by increasing Nt,Sc,Pr,and Nb mass flux coefficient enhances.But reverse pattern is found for incrementing values of β and λ.The intensifying magnitude of mass flux coefficient with respect to Nt,Sc,Pr,and Nb is due to the reason that all of these mentioned factors decease the motion of fluid molecules and hence the concentration profile boosts.Furthermore these results are also compared to check the assurance of present computed results by making excellent matching with finding provided by Hayat et al.[19]
