Analysis of entropy generation and activation energy on a convective MHD Carreau–Yasuda nanofluid flow over a sheet

In recent days, entropy generation has attracted the attention of several researchers due to its applications in manufacturing electronic devices, heat exchangers, conservation of energy, and generation of power. Further, activation energy is an essential requirement in automobile and chemical industries, nuclear reactors, and so on. This paper investigation aims to examine the entropy generation and the mass and energy transfer in the magneto-hydro dynamic movement of convective Carreau-Yasuda nano liquid past a porous stretching sheet with the consequences of activation energy, energy source, and binary chemical reaction. Also, the analysis of the impact of viscous and Joule dissipation in the presence of suction/injection into the Buongiorno model is an essential objective of this study. By introducing a similarity variable, the partial differential equations are altered into a system of ordinary differential equations. Numerical solutions to the modified equations are determined by utilizing a BVP5C MATLAB package. The findings are presented visually for several relevant flow characteristics and explained carefully. The thermophoresis parameter and activation energy parameter optimize the concentration of nanoparticles. These outcomes further indicate that as the larger Brinkmann and permeability parameters the entropy generation is broadened. It is discovered that an augmentation in thermal and solutal Grashof numbers is associated with greater velocity distribution.
