Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar

Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University popularly known as HAU, is one of Asia's biggest agricultural universities, located at Hisar in the Indian state of Haryana. It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. After the formation of Haryana in 1966, it became an autonomous institution on February 2, 1970 through a Presidential Ordinance, later ratified as Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970, passed by the Lok Sabha on March 29, 1970. A. L. Fletcher, the first Vice-Chancellor of the university, was instrumental in its initial growth.

    Heat transfer in nanofluids over different conformations with various effects
    (CCSHAU, Hisar, 2023-01) Pardeep Kumar; Poonia, Hemant
    The boundary layer flow, heat transfer flow, and mass transfer flow past a nanofluid due to different geometries have all been examined in the current study using numerical methods. The nanofluid flow saturated in different solid objects, such as stretching sheet, stretching cylinder, Riga plate, rotating disc, etc., are commonly used in many fields of engineering and manufacturing procedures. Numerous physical phenomena are involved in the various flow conditions, including the magnetic effect, velocity slip effect, thermal slip effect, suction/injection, Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects, porosity, heat generation/absorption, thermal radiation, Arrhenius energy, chemical reaction, viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and nanoparticle volume fraction, in nanofluid flow have been discussed. To investigate the variations in velocity profiles, temperature, and concentration distributions, the influences of these parameters are plotted and discussed. Moreover, the factors of engineering interest, such as skin friction coefficient, Nusselt and Sherwood numbers are studied and discussed in details. The system of governing non-linear partial differential equations is transformed into the system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations by applying an appropriate transformation. Then, the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method of fourth-fifth order along with shooting technique is used to solve them with the help of computing tools. Also, bvp4c, bvp5c MATLAB inbuilt solver are used. For validation of present numerical codes, the result are compared with previously published works. Thus, an excellent correlation between the current results and the available solutions in the literature is attained. The obtained results have huge significances in different fields of applied science and different branches of engineering and applied mathematics.
