摘要
This study is aimed at investigating the influence of entropy analysis of magnetohydrodynamic flow of Jeffrey fluid in an inclined micro-channel in the presence of thermal radiation and field suction/injection. We have improved the mathematical model of the physical problem under consideration. The designed equations have been solved by applying the shooting-based fourth-order, Runge-Kutta method with the boundary conditions, which describe velocity slip and temperature jump conditions at the fluid-wall inter-face. Numerical efforts are described graphically and mentioned quantitatively concerning different parameters such as Jeffery parameter, Bejan number, and entropy generation embedded in the problem. The numerical results for the expression of the irreversibility ratio are obtained. It is observed that the wall inclination strengthens the entropy production rate in the micro-channel, and the thermal buoyancy layer induces an increase in fluid velocity as suction.
