Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of several parameters in the Navier - Stokes equations describing the nanofluid flow subjected to different electric fields. The boundary layer of SWCNTs – water flow over a stretched surface of different thicknesses in the presence of weak and strong electric fields was analyzed. The governing equations were essentially a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), solved using the R.K Fehlberg method with shooting technique (via MAPLE 18 software). The positive correlation between electric field and temperature was rather significant. The mass transfer rate increased with respect to most of the working parameters, indicating that the mass transfer is dominated in the presence of electric field with stretching sheet in different variables.
