Abstract
Influence of magnetic field on nanofluid transportation inside a porous cavity by means of two-temperature model is reported via Control volume based finite element method (CVFEM). Nanofluid properties are estimated by means of KKL. Boussinesq-Darcy estimation is employed for momentum equations. Roles of Rayleigh number (Ra), solid-nanofluid interface heat transfer parameter (Nhs), porosity (ε) and Hartmann number (Ha)are depicted. Results show that porosity has opposite relationship with temperature gradient. Nusselt number reduces with augment of Nhs.
